Nice! What lowering kit did you go with on the Burb?

 

[BG1988]

Man, that’s great! I just took off my fuse panel lid and engine cover and about to take off my K&N Intake tube to paint gloss black soon. Lookin’ real good!

are you trying to impress your mechanic??

 

[Jason in DLH]

I am my own mechanic. So, yes. I am.

It's Mcgaughys Spindles, Belltech Struts for a 3" front drop. Belltech 3"/4" rear kit with free travel mod. I had to cut 2 dead coils off passenger rear spring and cut down a spacer to 1/2" on the left to make it sit level.

I’ve been eyeing those Ballers for awhile now. They look great!

One word...Awesome!

 

[Bigkevschopshop]

I agree the ballers do look stellar...

Just Replica 22s with esky tails here... For now, I have some 4" Eibach drop coils here, just need a few more parts to get things done for a drop kit...

Your ride is looking stellar! I love those snowflake wheels as well! What other parts do you need to get for a drop kit?

 

[Jason in DLH]

Here's my 260k mile beater with a heater.

I’ve been meaning to ask... is a manual an option for the GMT800’s or did you convert it to manual?

Thanks bro, Im trying here...

Drop spindles, I think DJM has the offset sway bar ends for the rear to correct that, and when doing free travel mod plan to put jounce bushings in there to control bottoming out if possible, and helper bags for towing..

Once were good there, then maybe upgrade some sway bars and put some spohn arms on rear etc..

It was actually converted by the previous owner using all OEM parts from a 2500hd. Works slicker than *** on a gold tooth.

I am 99.9% sure he did that bad ass conversion...

That’s awesome! Miss the throttle response on a manual. Or maybe it’s these electronic throttle bodies that makes my Yukon feel unresponsive. Either way...I miss driving a manual.
