Put kit of yesterday.

Front dropped from 35 11/16" to 33 3/4" I had 21,*** miles on previous tire and put new wheels/tires on at the same time.

For the rear: 37 5/8" to 35 1/4" drop. I used the hose on top instead of spacer, but used spacer on bottom instead of hose. Tony suggests removing spacer and replacing with hose and getting a new adjustment bolt for autoride.

1) cut bracket off
2) remove spacer
3) make rear like 2.5 inches like we spoke about

will bring back the rear lower and look way better. I sent the links via usps mail should of been there for sure. if not I can send you another set


using the spacer and the autoride link thats in there now is lifting the rear up so has that rake. The kit can come down to 33 7/8 inches on that tire

You mailed the links? You shouldn't have! That spacer is so thin, I'm surprised it makes much of a difference compared to the hose.

Drivers side front tire rubs on sharp left turns. Any recommendations to fix?

Looks good. Did you do the free travel mod? I need to order that for mine

Not yet. I just bought some new air tools to try to make it easier. When I get back under it to do the rear drop, I will try to remove it.

Love the pics. I ordered the glossy black emblems for my Tahoe and was curious how it would look. Only a few of you guys have done this and I always love seeing the look. now if I could just get some dry weather so I could get my badges removed and replaced.

I sprayed my emblems with plasti-dip and a glossifier. I'm thinking about de-badging the entire thing though.
