01 tahoe with replacement front bumper weight issue?
Hey im about to install a ranchhand bull nose front bumper on my tahoe. It weighs aprx 170 lbs. How bad is this going to effect ride height and can this be corrected by ajusting the torsion bars without effecting camber? Will it balance the camber out because im thinking the extra weight will cause neg camber and ajusting the torsion bars will create pos camber? Another question. Those kits to raise the front end up to 2.5 inches, will they effect camber? I would like to level the truck, thanks for yalls help.

You could put about the same weight as the bumper on the front end and see how much it sags.That what give you a rough idea how much lift it will take to level it back out.
