Thumbs down tight front end

I have a 98 1500 chevy 4x4.I installed a front leveling kit and now it rides really rough.I have adjusted torsion key bolt in and out and its still tight.Is there any other way to get it to ride better or is that just the way these kits do?

Did the kit come with different shocks, if so maybe they are the problem. You could take them off and see how it rides. Also grab the front bumper and shake it up and down and make sure it articulates up and down without any restrictions.

Default tight front end

Yeah ive tried that and everything else! Thanks for the input though.I was told to cut the part of the frame out thats under the upper control arm to give the control arm more travel but i m not comfortable doing that.
