Well, i finally cranked my tbars about an inch. i have been kind of on the edge about doing it but now thats its done i think it looks MUCH better. i didnt really want to lift it, i mainly wanted to level it out. the drivers side was a little higher than the passengers side and i wanted to level it out front to rear a little more. i am going to take it in to get an alignment within the next two to three weeks however, the front wheels look a lot straighter than they did before

you may not be able to tell much of a difference but i certainly can, it is much more horizontal now instead of slightly raked like it used to be

if you click on it, it will take you to a higher resolution picture

How many turns? My crank was to gain the same objective-ever 'er out. Took 5 turns to get it within 1/4" of the back (top of tire to bottom of fenderwell).

Looks great!

about 2.5 turns on drivers side and about 3 turns on pass side. i know i have read about 1 turn = 0.25" but there is nearly and inch in height difference after the lift
