i was wondering if anyone has had any experience with auto ride? I have a 2012 suburban LTZ with the air ride and was wanting to put a leveling kit on it. I found two guys that said they can do it, but about 12 that said it can't be done. I even call some of the manufactures and they said they did not make anything that worked. For all other tahoes and suburbans it uses the same kit a the trucks. The two guys that said they can do it, one works for the local dealership and uses a new, longer bracket for the level sensor. He is $600 installed. The other guy is at the local nissan dealership and said that as long as you keep it under 2" it won't affect the autoride system. I was just wondering if any one on the forum has done this and what they did? Thanks

It's the same as leveling the Tahoe, which there are several discussions already started. There should be no issues, check here for a thread with a Suburban LTZ. I just did my 2011 Suburban with a 1.5" level, its just a strut spacer.

I've been doing alot of reading on this. I just traded my 07 suburban for an 11 XL Denali and want to be able to fit the 33's that I kept. From what I understand so far, the front sits 1.5" lower than the rear stock. So if u only bring the front up you should have no problems. If you raise the rear is where you run into problems with the auto ride. Alot of guys seem to be using the 2.5 " front and 1" rear kits and have to do other mods for the auto ride to work correctly.
