Product Description
The MOOG T40043 Adjustable Torsion Bar Keys are engineered to restore or increase front ride height on heavy-duty GM trucks equipped with torsion bar front suspension. These precision-machined keys allow technicians to fine-tune torsion bar preload, helping correct sagging suspension or create a leveled stance for lifted or upgraded trucks.
MOOG’s design allows up to approximately 1/2" to 1-1/2" ride height adjustment, helping restore factory ride height lost from worn torsion bars or provide a mild front leveling solution. Built from heavy-duty steel and engineered to OE standards, the T40043 keys provide reliable durability for demanding work trucks and towing applications.

FAQ
What do torsion bar keys do?Torsion bar keys adjust the preload on the torsion bars in the front suspension, allowing technicians to change ride height and restore proper suspension geometry.
Will MOOG T40043 level my truck?
These keys allow suspension adjustment that can help level the front of many GM HD trucks depending on torsion bar condition and adjustment range.
Do I need two keys for installation?
Yes. Vehicles use one key per torsion bar, so most installations require two keys when replacing both sides of the suspension.
Is this a lift kit?
No. This is an adjustable torsion key designed to restore or slightly increase front ride height, not a full suspension lift system.
Is professional installation recommended?
Yes. Torsion bars are under heavy spring tension, and proper tools are required for safe installation.
