Default 2.5 turns on t bars =? after settling.

Was just wondering on how much lift this gives you after settling. I remember twisting on my GMC a few years back, seems like it went up about 3 inches then came back down to about a inch and a half after a day. Did a seach on it but damn there is alot to sort through.

My questions was in inches of height after turning the t-bars rather than mileage.

They are all going to vary. But I would say it will settle by about 1/8-1/4 inch.

I put the new keys from Truxxx in mine and set the front ride height at 24.25". Drove it a couple of days and it settled about a 1/4". We re-adjusted back to 24.25" and it's still there.

I highly recommend the shock extensions or longer shocks when turning the bars.

Well I've got 30000 miles on it so I don't think I'm going to get an alignment for free.

Free alignment- crap my Yukon pulled to left when I got it . Dealer says doesn't drive like a Bronco. After a month they aligned it no better. Two years later when I bought a new half ton pickup I told them about it. First they said we gotta remove the knockouts in frame. I said "How did you align it under warranty if knockouts are still in frame .They said "oh we can only do Tow In when vehicles are new under warranty." 200 bucks later I understood how it works. The Rebel.
