Hey now. Turning torsion Bars can totally kill your truck if you do any serious wheeling. Daystar does make a 01 F-150 leveling kit.

Guys a good rule of thumb for your torsion bars, make sure the front wheels are off the ground...causes less strain and a lot easier to turn...crank them all the way up then back them out about 1.5 turns. Usually not a good idea to keep them all the cranked.
