level the front end

[canman]

hi everyone, I just bought a 2006 h3 a couple of weeks ago, I want to raise the the front end so it sits level , my mechanic says the torsion bars are in all the way already , there are all kinds of leveling kits out there , can anybody tell me which one to get  that does not cost to much . thanks

HI Canman, First Off Welcome to the Club!
 
For your suspension question, if the torsion bar bolt are fully turned in and the H3 still does not sit level, the front torsion bars are probably tired. However, this kit should allow you to get the truck sitting level once again; https://www.suspensionmaxx.com/store/product/SMX-MCJRH
 
Btw, you can install 35s easily on a leveled H3!
 
Hope this helps,

thanks,  I see one made by truxxx for 70.00 dollars, I just don't know how good it is, I have never heard of there products before . all my lifted trucks I had they were made by sky jacker . thanks .

Actually the one from truxxx only makes your shock longer but requires you to still crank your torsion bars up all the way. So if your torsion bars are already cranked all the way up then you will need to replace the torsion keys to allowed them to be cranked up higher.

Hope this helps,

hello , thanks for the information , I just checked out a video from rough country. it shows to spacers for the torsion bar bolts and longer rear shackles for the back, which I don't think I will need . there price is 70.00 dollars . not to bad .

Hi welcome to the club i have an H3 08 alpha superlift sells the keys just changed them out from the oem but had problems with 35 tires they rubbed the front fenders when i hit bumps and dips .... i dont know if the shop cranked up the torsion bars at first ...H3 has a rancho 4 inch lift now but thats another nightmare leaf springs to long had to cut 3 inches and curl to make ride more smoother than longer springs shackle hit the frame

thanks for your help , just wondering if anybody has tried the leveling kit from rough country

After looking at the install instructions and going by what you said that your torsion bar bolts are already maxed out...I highly doubt you will get 2.5inches of lift in the front.

I know the other kit is more $$$ but it is the best way to level the front based on what you said;

Have a Rough Country 2" lift/leveling kit in my 06 and it does a great job and is relatively inexpensive.
