Have you cranked your torsion bars any? If so, you're not going to notice any lift unless you install the new keys and then crank them, which is a very bad idea. You'd be money ahead to just crank the bars until you get about 1.5" of lift out of them. What most people do not understand is that preload is preload, no matter how you achieve it. The only thing reindexed torsion keys do is allow you to crank your your bars too far, causing a very harsh ride and extreme front end wear, but you get that extra 1-1.5" compared to the factory keys [;)]. The reindexed keys will provide you with about 1.5" of lift over stock, which is about the same amount of lift you can safely achieve by cranking your factory keys, thus making a "leveling kit" a waste of money IMO unless you intend to crank the bars after installing the new keys. If this is what you want, then by all means do it, it's your truck and money, however be aware that your truck will ride like a stagecoach and eat front end parts.
