Tortion bar leveling.

[Lance]

I know this topic has been gone over but im looking for some good input.I am super new as in i have never messed with vehicles before, I do construction I'm not a vehicle guy but I want to mod my 2007 h3... First I want to level it off...and from what I can see there is alot of do and do not on this topic of tortion bar lift...I guess main question is...am i going to mess anything up going to 23.5" hub to fender lip? I'm not made of money so I'm trying to do everything as cheep as possible and I will never go bigger then 315 75 r16 tires. Also going to add heavier bumpers at some point, your opinion means alot thank you.

23.5" should be fine for a torsion bar lift... Most of us run around that number, give or take an inch or so... It's when you go up to 24+" that damage becomes a major concern. When you do it, I'd set it at like 23.7" that way you can compensate for the suspension settling over the miles of driving... and when you add a heavier bumper to the front or winch you may have to do some slight tweeking to the bars to get it back up to where you had it before... I would also plan for longer/extended length front shocks and bump stops to avoid nose diving.

Thanks @RazorbackH3

23.5" is fine. 23" is better (ride wise). Ive done both and I cant recommend either over the other.
Level it, drive around, you like it great, u dont, re adjust.

I added 2.25 inches to my T's front looks nice but if u order rough country the included extenders for shocks are all but useless. Im forced to upgrade to bilstein 5100 i think its worth it though. For $60 bucks u get a level truck and 135 u get better performance. I am now broke.

I've had my 08 leveled for years without any issues . Just remember to get it aligned after you level it !

Shock wise, you could do the, Hunner trick, it seems to work so I've read. It is just addin a nut to the top of the shock. Look it up on the search bar for better info. Its away to save money...Good luck
