Replace a worn or damaged front torsion bar key with the Mevotech Supreme Torsion Bar Key, part number MK100012. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1999-2004 Chevrolet Silverado 2500, 2007-2010 Chevrolet Avalanche and 2001-2010 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list. This key lets the torsion bar's twist be adjusted to set front ride height.
The key couples to one end of the torsion bar, and the adjuster bolt bears against it. Turning the bolt rotates the key, which changes the bar's preload and the height at which the front of the vehicle sits.
- Front position: Cataloged for the front torsion bar suspension on the listed applications.
- OE-quality fit and performance: Mevotech Supreme builds this key to deliver OE-quality fit and performance.

Signs a torsion bar key may need replacing include a front end that sits low or uneven from side to side, an adjuster that will not hold its setting, or a key that is visibly cracked or worn. Worn torsion bars or other suspension parts can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing parts.
Torsion bars store significant spring tension. Follow the vehicle service procedure to unload and reload the bar, and check ride height and wheel alignment afterward.
