[QUOTE="Marky Dissod, post: 27897, member: 13218"] GMT800 pickups use torsion bars that are MUCH stiffer than the Tahoe PPV / Suburban Z71 4WD torsion bars.

ANYWAY Since you did not bother to mention what kind of pickup truck you have, put your VIN in here [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.gmpartsgiant.com/vin-decoder.html[/URL] to learn which bars you already have, and go with stiffer bars ... how much stiffer is up to you ...
