Ok I was reading old posts and all I can find is that the torsion bar keys from the fords are what I want to use I was woundering what year keys to use on a 05 and how much of a lift will they give me. And does anbody have the part number that i need to order. Then I am going to put the add a leafs in the rear. Thanks

That's not a good way to get a lift. Get the taller springs and longer shocks.

To answer your question, you could get a couple inches out of the torsion bars.

How can he get taller springs with the torsion bar suspension? The bar is the spring right?

I do not have coil springs so I Was just going to do keys in it but I am trying to figure out which keys I can order to put in I found kits on ebay. But it seems like they are asking to much for the keys and the add a leaf's.

You are correct, no coil springs

I mean for the rear leaves, rather than getting blocks. For the front, there is a lift spindle that you can get. It uses the stock torsion bars.

I jsut re-read the first post, it was either edited (removing blocks as an option), or I am going crazy. Possibly both.
