Hey guys, I've got some questions but before I get started, let me give you a little background on my truck. It's a fully optioned 2000 GMC Yukon w/ autoride that I've owned since '07. Current suspension setup is a DJM 2/3 w/ keys/coils and modified autoride sitting over 275/45/20 tires. I've had it like this since 10/2007 w/ little problems. Current fenderlip to ground measurements are ~32.25"F/~34.25"R. I'd like to bring the front down another 2" and the rear another 3.5". I've been lurking around, trying to gather info and my thinking is drop spindles up front and the tb lowering springs in the rear w/ air assist bags will get me where I want. For the front I plan on cutting off the bumpstop mount and installing a pancake bumpstop and I plan to do the free travel mod, relocated lower links, shorter sway bar mounts and adj panhard bar in the rear. All this to get to my question, I really love the automatic load leveling. Is it possible to re-route the compressor lines from the shock to the air assist or "tow" bags and will that be functional with modified autoride links. Also, my front shocks work quite well at this point and will it be necessary to replace them once I install a lowering spindle?
Any help is greatly appreciated guys and gals. Also, if anyone has additional info on this setup or parts I may have overlooked, feel free to contribute. I will try to get pics of my truck up in the next day or two also.

Here are the pics. They're a little old, from 2007, right after I did most of the work. The only difference now is no front window tint and I took out the hitch ball.
