Can't you crank the tortion bars on the Chevs? I don't have a bowtie but I seem to remember a friend of mine cranking the tortion bars on his 2500. Good luck.

yes you can.

you will need an 18mm socket, jack and antisieze.

jack up one side of the truck and make sure the tire is off the ground on the sire your working on, and dab some antisize on the torsion bar bolt and give it about 2-3 full turns. lower it and repeat on the other side. There is a warning sticker under the truck about the torsion bars, but just ignore it.

a good thing to do before you adjust the bolts is measure the gap between the tire and fender, if you are within 2 inches before and after u should be fine.:U:

H2 wheels would help sice they have more BSing. 285s are really to big for the stockers and 305s are worse, but a lot do with only minor problems. You can run 35s with a crank trimming on H2s.
