Well I just bought a pair of Cognito shocks from TrailDuty, lets hope they are in stock so they can arrive at the same time as my Tires/Wheel combo I ordered from 4wheelparts.com.

I am going to start by cranking my tb and see how well that goes, if it doesn't lift enough, I'll go with the Readylift key.

You should be fine. Make sure the area and treadsaround torsion bar boltsare clean and spray some WD40 on the treads. Some people start cranking the t.b. with dirt and mudaround itand don't get good results. The stock torsion keys give plenty of lift. I don't know what the hype is with aftermarket ones.

SIX TURNS??? Do you have them drop down emergency oxygen masks above the visors? What you got on the nose of that thing that needs six turns?? Two brush guards, a winch, and road kill

My ride height is set at 24 1/4@ 6 turns. With the shock spacers 6 turns was possible and still give agood levelride. Same idea as the longer shocks.

What is the ideal front ride height? 24 1/4? Also, any tips for me with cranking those torsion bars?

I'm waiting for my wheels and tires to come in but here is a picture of how it sits right now. I'll post new pictures next week with the new wheels.

So yes, the Cognito shocks are on back order at the factory However, they said next week they will ship out the shocks via drop ship... so at least it's coming.
