Superlift's Level-It lift systems are the perfect solution for anyone wanting an economical and easy way to eliminate the factory nose-down rake on virtually all late-model trucks and SUVs. Whether it's simply leveling the truck's stance, making the room to go up a couple of tire sizes, or plus-sizing the tire and wheel package on the vehicle, Level-It components work with factory suspension components to achieve modest ride height gains Super-EZ install.
The 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4WD, 2002-2006 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 4WD, 2000-2006 Chevrolet Tahoe 1500 4WD, 2000-2006 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 4WD, 1999-2006 GMC Sierra 1500 4WD, 2000-2006 GMC Yukon 1500 4WD and the 2000-2006 GMC Yukon XL 1500 4WD are all equipped with an Independent Front Suspension (IFS) with torsion bars.
In these IFS torsion bar models, the front tires attach to steering knuckles. The knuckles pivot on ball joints attach to upper & lower control arms. The upper & lower control arms position the knuckles front-to-back & side-to-side. The spring of the suspension is a torsion bar. The torsion bars have a tremendous pre-load or twist in them. The torsion bars are what determine the ride height of the suspension. These torsion bars have a certain amount of adjustment built into the factory system, but simply cranking up the factory system will cause a more harsh ride.
The front of the torsion bar attaches to the lower control arm and rear attaches at a rear frame crossmember. This crossmember houses the adjuster or torsion keys. Torsion bar keys have hex-cut (or splined) holes that mate to the rear ends of the torsion bars. This adjustment takes place via a bolt that indexes on a torsion key attached to each torsion bar.
Our Level-It keys are indexed differently to increase bar rotation and lift (the center hex where the torsion bar mounts is re-indexed or rotated). As the new keys are loaded, they apply torsional load to the bars which in turn lifts the vehicle greater than that of the stock torsion keys. Ours are also designed to grab the flat hex portion of the torsion bar for a more precise, tighter fit.
SUPERLIFT Level-It keys are improved direct replacements for the factory keys included in all these year, make & models: 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4WD, 2002-2006 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 4WD, 2000-2006 Chevrolet Tahoe 1500 4WD, 2000-2006 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 4WD, 1999-2006 GMC Sierra 1500 4WD, 2000-2006 GMC Yukon 1500 4WD and the 2000-2006 GMC Yukon XL 1500 4WD.
