Quick Front End Lift for GMC AT4 Off-Road Trucks
The Skyjacker C205KE torsion key leveling kit gives 2020-2024 GMC Sierra 2500HD AT4 owners a straightforward way to level the front end and add clearance for larger tires. The C205KE replaces the factory torsion keys with a re indexed key that raises front ride height by roughly 2 inches, correcting the factory rake that leaves many HD trucks sitting lower in front than in the rear.
Because the C205KE works through the factory torsion bar system, installation does not require cutting or drilling on most applications. A torsion bar tool is needed to safely unload and reinstall the bars, and a professional alignment is required afterward to bring the truck back to factory specifications. The C205KE is a popular first step for AT4 owners planning to add a leveling kit before larger off road tires and wheels.

Leveling Kits
Leveling kits raise the front of a truck or SUV to match the height of the rear, eliminating the factory rake that most manufacturers build in for payload compensation. Beyond the cleaner stance, a leveled vehicle gains additional front tire clearance for larger wheel and tire upgrades without a full suspension lift. Popular Upgrades Best-selling leveling kit options include aluminum billet spacer leveling kits for Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado, and RAM 1500, strut extension leveling kits for independent front suspension trucks that avoid disturbing the factory strut, and leveling kit and shock combos that replace the factory strut unit with a longer shock and spacer for proper spring travel and ride quality. Will a leveling kit affect my truck's ride quality? A properly installed spacer leveling kit adds minimal weight and does not dramatically change spring rate, so most drivers find ride quality is maintained or slightly improved due to the more level attitude. However, leveling ki...
