So I put in keys and spacers on my hoe a little while back and do to my pickup breaking down i installed my plow on the hoe. as you can guess the front dropped quite a bit ..its like it had the lift but no strength.. I took a look underneath and there was a lot of tread left on the the bolt.. I gave her some cranks on both sides and she came up a 1 1/2 inches. it still drops but not as much.. I am wondering how much I can turn them before i snap the bars???

I originally wanted the truck lifted and level but after picking her up the front was still about 2 inches lower then the back this should make it level ..how does the ride suffer??
is it real stiff or does it sway??

Real stiff. you will also wear out front end components faster than usual. ball joints, bearings, etc.
