Just for S's and G's, go compare the bolt left in each torsion key and the clearance distance of each bump stop.  That is how it was explained to me.  My passenger side torsion key has approx 3/8" more bolt and has twice the bump stop clearance compared to driver side.

Cant do that.  My bump stops are shaved, keys replaced twice and i have 2" spindles.  buck2
