most of my customres are in their 40-60s so ride is important. what might be good for younger guys not the best for older. then again i do the 3/5.5 kits all the time and rides better then the 2/3 kits and sits lower

i am tryin to get some shocks but I now realize I don't know if its lowered 2/3 or 3/5 how can I tell? New at this. Torsion keys and control arms definatley have been added along with some shocks but this Tahoe is a little bouncy for me.

ROCKET what size tires do you have and also if you can measure from ground to fenderlip all around and i will tell you.

in rear do you have shock extenders? swaybar endlink kit? trailing arm relocators?

Norcal SS,

I have an 05 Denali w/Belltech 2" spindles in front, 3" springs in back, and shock extenders on 24s with 305 tires. The ride is not terrible, but I feel like it is inconsistent. I realize this could be due to road conditions, but I feel like it is more than that. I was considering getting rid of my auto-ride shocks in order to possibly fix this.

What are my possible shock options in order to keep the same levels (2/3)? Is there something to be done in front and rear? Thanks.

I haven't posted much and can't receive dm's. Email is GolE2839@yahoo.com
