Sorry, tried a search but couldn't find what I was looking for. Still shopping but wanted to see if anyone had pictures of a 'Burb or XL with a 2" key lift/leveling kit running either 32" or 33" tires? Trying to get an idea of which way to go.

I see lots of lifted non-XL Yukons and Tahoes but not a lot of lifted Suburbans or XLs.

Thanks in advance!

Just installed tonight, i have 34" tires though, definitely recommend new socks in stead of shock adapters, the kit was 108 on e bay really happy with the way it drives, my 34s rub on turns if you don't want to trim go with a 275 70 18, i had a hard time researching also, but i have room for a 35 if i didn't mind some rubbing

I have general grabbers 285/75 and I'm riding stock with no rubbing. And stock rims no spacers. You could have gone bigger. I just got the rough country kit and am about to have it installed. I will post before and after pics of the install on my Yukon XL.

Here is a pic of my '05 Yukon. Currently waiting on Z71 rear springs and 1" spacers for the rear, so front is only leveled with the stock rear height. Running 275/60/20's.

Looks good! By my calculation your tires are 33", yes? Are you planning to go any bigger once you get your other components?

Is yours a 4x4? I can't tell from the pics.

Correct. The 275/60 is like a 33x11. I may go 33x12.50, but that will only be if I get different wheels or have these refinished as these are getting pretty rough from the salt. Until that time, I will just roll on these or go back to my 16" stockers for a little while. Also, yes ours is 4x4.

ok guys finally got my rough country 2inch leveling lift kit installed. Was not a hard install at all. I got 2 inches in the front but didnt get but 1/4 of an inch on the rear. To make the ride level the torsion keys are pretty much all the way backed out. So as of right now all 4 corners are sitting at 37.5 inches tall.

What can I do to lift the rear about 2 inches cause if I put the keys up about half way I'll get another 1.5-2 inches in the front.

The spacers the rough country kit came with were less than half an inch. should I get 2inch spring spacers ?

what is the difference between the springs on my truck ( 2002 Yukon XL SLT 1500 4x4 ) vs Z71 Springs??

I like the way it sits leveled but I really wanted to gain the 2 or more inches all the way around not just in the front.
