I did crank the torsion bars and I also had to do a little trimming on my bumper. I’m going to go ahead and get a leveling kit for it.Any T bar crank or anything to help them fit?

That is a good question. I’d imagine factory height is near the middle of the torsion key. And I think certain leveling kits can be good and cheap ones aren’t very good. At least that’s the way my past experiences with other vehicles has been.I believe the leveling kits are frowned on around here, puts unnecessary stress on the front end. Generally a 1.5" to 2" T bar crank, with blocks to bring the rear up (if needed) is the limit of the stock suspension.
What I personally would like to know is what GMs stock suspension height measurements

Interesting, maybe it’s something to do with IFS, this is the first IFS I’ve tried doing much with.I don't think its the kits themselves. RC gives your new upper control arms. Its just the old design of the suspension doesn't lend well to them.
Thank you, the previous owner built the rack, he did a good job but I’ll be changing a couple things about it in the futurenice rig in for the updates. ive done quite a bit to my 98 yukon i like your rack mounts better than mine eventually ill redo mine
