Truck extremely bouncy after lift

[Thatliftedgreen94che]

Did you have the torsion bars removed from the lower control arms? If so could they be reinstalled one notch off?

Had to get new torsion bars old ones were bent a little bit. Would I pull them and rotate one notch?

I’m not sure if it’s even possible to install them one full notch out it was just an idea. If you have a torsion bar remover tool then you could test the tension with the front end off the ground. There shouldn’t be an extreme amount of tension on the key unless the adjuster bolt is tightened up or when there is weight on the bar.

Does rough country offer or recommend some upper control arms for geometry correction? That’s what we need to do with dropped trucks, I’d imagine itd be the same with lifted.

They only offer them for a 2-3 inch l

They only offer them for a 2-3 inch lift the 6 comes with a drop mount to correct geometry it just seems like anything I do the front end is to tall for the upper control arm.

If you have to t bar adjust bolts backed out, lots of thread showing, little of it above the key and it still no good then the indexing mabe be an issue. Sounds like you're going the wrong way with the adjusters. Truck looks like 6" kit cranked trying to get 8, and that fits the descriptions you're giving as far as clearance issues and ride quality. Tht jack hammer ride is no good for the new parts, and control arms need to be tightened with the vehicle at ride height, weight on the suspension, so the bushing aren't bound, so when doing up down ride height adjustments loosening them back up is the best way to avoid damaging control arm bushings..

I’m trying to keep it somewhat level but trust me keys are not cranked

If it wasn’t for it being soaking wet outside I’d show a picture of the keys

Did you tighten up the control arms with the suspension hanging?

What torsion bars did you install?

It was me and a few work buddies doing it but I’m sure they did and I said it might be the issue but I’m new to the job as a tech and these guys have installed plenty lift so I took their word that might that be the problem

Not sure what you're tring to say there, but I added a bit more to my post while others had posted. Might be worth going back to for you.
