Niiiiiice. Looks great man. W/ the same drop kit, but no DJM hardware, can I set my links to 2.5 or will that be pushing it? Dropping this weekend. Going no spacer in rear on 2010 Denali... and I guess I'll have to cut bump stop brackets off.
Just measured stock height w/ 24s and 305/35 and I'm just barely under 38in to the rear fender lip. I don't want to have to tinker too much since I'm only looking to spend the money on an alignment once (and immediately after the drop is installed). I'm just trying to nail down this one variable that seems to be there on this install.

Tony mad props it looks great. Those big ass brakes are going to look sick behind those wheels.

Why is that so surprising?

just did another truck last night and the rear djm hardware kit makes the truck ride better no question about that.
Well onto going lower now and keeping the great ride. My wife is very happy with the ride. I put my parents and mother in law in the truck yesterday with my wife and son in the back with about 250 pounds of trailblazer djm control arms behind the 3rd row seats and i was surprised how well it rode.
But i want it lower so in front I will be doing my strut modification which is like $15 dollars to bring it down about 1 inch at most and rear im going to do some measuring tonight. Going to use the trailblazer springs.
