Is it riding like ****? Have you drove it in 4 wheel drive on pavement and turned the wheels? As long as you aren't launching it in 4 wheel it should be fine.

my ford keys aren't even cranked all the way
the ride isnt bad and yes when i launch i use 4 wheel but i dont seem to have a problem and ive pull my friend diesel our more then once with these cv's.
i drop mine all the way down for 4x4 launches, but the diesel is a little harder on them. if its not bothering you and not binding then its ok, if it fails you will know then it was too steep. just my .02
I guess if you arn't replacing cv axles all the time or wearing out any other front end parts to quickly, then they arn't that bad. But I will say again that if your lift started to sag in the front, then your torsion bars prolly need to be replaced with new units. It's pretty common for those torsion bars to to get weak over time especially if they have been cranked for a while.
yea im prob going to buy new torsion bars and see what happens but the cv will still be at the same angle sooo
hey if it breaks ..... fix it. don't be like some people and cry a river about IFS. if ya don't wanna buy torsion bars throw a SFA under it and calll it done. then you would be my hero!!! :hail:
When you replace the t-bars you shouldn't need as much crancking on your keyways. All that stress and twist get put on those bars and then you get the sag, new fresh bars get rid of the sag and give you back the lost height. If I remember right there are different codes on them bars for different strengths. i'll look around and see what I find and post it back on here.
Here you go man a list of all the GM t-bars part numbers and max torques:
