AHC Lift questions (1 Viewer)

[brandon12777]

So I currently have 2 general goals....

1. Sensor Lift the AHC

2. Make sure my AHC pressures are ok.

I have not done anything really yet other than preemptively crank the front torsion bars 5 turns. With 145k miles I'm sure the pressures are high, I have tech stream just need to get around to buying a cheap windows laptop to check them.

Overall I've been very happy with AHC on and off road and I want to keep the system going until it needs $$ attention. My general idea/question is, I'd like to sensor lift the AHC 1.5-2" and want to know how if it's smart or possible to put OME/Slee lift springs and torsion bars in at this point? Will I still be able to adjust the pressures adequately? Can that combo of AHC Lift/Lift springs and bars work?

Thanks,
Brandon

short answer, yes. Long answer, search.

Short answer, you theoretically can, but the spring rates for those springs/TBs are too high for the AHC system. I would highly advise against it. You would have abetted luck with stock 100 springs/TBs.

Or you can do it with aftermarket coils designed for the AHC system as mentionand here: 2-2.5" AHC Lift Using King Coils & Shock Spacers

But as stated above, this is a highly covered topic.
