Hey guys I am new to this forum and am glad that I came accross it.
I have a 1998 yukon 'tis four-wheel drive.
I bought it with a 3" lift block in the rear and front torsions adjusted to set level.
I lowered the adjustment to aquire a stock stance, rebuilt the front suspension with moog chassis parts and put some cheap rough country white shocks and steering stabilizer kit on it.
Had it aligned before I drove it anywhere with the new parts. The truck had 209xxx miles on it. I put it on the lift to change the oil for the third time (12,000 miles later) and was already searching for slack and the tires were just about melting off of it.
Now I'm at 233,6xx miles and am sporting the cheapest pitman, idler and upper ball joints, and used tires on the front.
I have two new 285/75-16 maxxis buckshot mudders for the front and a body lift.
Am going to rebuild it completely again with moog chassis, unless y'all know of something better?
Has any one used a 1" block on the rear and adjusted the front to match with any luck as far as longlastivityof suspension and alignment?
