Shlt looks great!!! Not to tall not to little of a lift... It's just right. I wouldn't change a thing.

Here's a few more. Shows stance and front to rear width difference. Once I get it home and detail it up, I'll post better, more detailed pics.
Cheers,

Looking good up front I would space out the rear so it matches up front. I like the look of one tread outside fender on that lift wheel combo

Lot's of motivation in here. Been seriously thinking about trading my truck in for a Yukon XL. I'm not a fan of the newer body style SUV's, I like the NBS look. Thanks for all the pictures!

Hey WYO-HD, was curious to find out what offset your wheels are? I am interested in getting a similar setup as well. Thanks

I'm running the same setup with 1.5" spacers in front and 2.0" in back, trimmed lower valance (front) and 1" shortened auto running boards.

How's the track width with those spacers? I know the factory is 1/4" wider up front then fabtech adds 1.5". You need a small spacer to clear stock wheels like 1/4" so then your current 2" rear will even up with the front.

Only off by 1/8" according to my tape measure. Close enough for me.

Looks good, why did you choose to go with the 6' BDS over the 6" bullet proof lift?

6" BDS lift w/ fox shocks, GM black 22" wheels and 35" Nitto Ridge Grapplers


Does gm only come in one sized 22s or do you have an offset? Any rub while driving?

For you guys with lifted Denalis. How did you get around the magnetic shocks?
Is there a plug in capacitor? Or what?

Or are you guys still running the stock shocks and springs but with spacers?

There are shock/strut extendions and adaptor brackets for the mag ride sensors.

I think you can go with an aftermarket longer shock and put a resistor some where in the shock harness to trick the computer into thinking it is there still. Google is your friend.

I have not been able to find anything about the resistor. I've emailed all the big suspensions companies and the places like bds camburg sdhq etc.
Tried gm trucks forum too.
No luck.

What you want to do with a lift? Plenty of options to keep stock auto ride or ditch it for coilovers. I can help
