    I'm new! 2003 Yukon Denali

    I'm not having any issue with the gap, I think it might just make it feel a little more "boaty," but I only have like a 1/4" gap so it's not bad, I still want to close the gap though. As far as suspension components I'm just referring to anything that may be worn that needs replacing.

    I'm new! 2003 Yukon Denali

    Thank You. It’s a very common setup, many people do it, and if you youtube “Suboverland”, this is the setup they use on all their overland builds. It’ rides ok, when you crank the torsion keys to gain some lift it creates a gap between the bump stops and LCA.. so I still need to add a pad on the...

    I'm new! 2003 Yukon Denali

    Sweet! I ended up going with Bilstein 5100's all around, Moog 81069 Springs, aftermarket torsion keys cranked a little, and Falken Wildpeak at3w P285/70r/17's.

    Adding backup camera to 2006 touchscreen

    I've had it since may of 2023 with no problems. Was not a pain whatsoever, I just went through the existing port right under the 3rd brake light and ran it under the interior trim/headliner on the left side (driver side) all the way to the front to the rear view mirror/dashcam. The angle...

    Replacement Shocks

    Hey man, so I got everything installed, 5100's all around, keys up front, Moog springs rear. in your experience how much rake if any would you recommend I keep? I'd like it as level as possible but want to avoid the rear every going lower than the front. I'm going to get an alignment Wednesday...

    front jounce bumpers

    How have these held up, if you did it again would you pick the same bump stop or go with something else? I'm doing bilstein 5100's with torsion key lift on my 06 Yukon Denali XL, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to have a gap so trying to figure out the best thing to do, so far it's looking like...

    Replacement Shocks

    I went ahead and ordered the torsion keys. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have a gap between the front bump stops and LCA , so like I said before I'm planning to add a pad on the LCA. What do you think? Here's a link of someone who's done it, they said their ride was much better. I attached a...

    Replacement Shocks

    Alright so I installed the rear 5100's and Moog springs! got enough lift and tires don't rub any longer! Now I have a question about the front. Do stock front shocks stop the torsion keys from lifting the front more? I noticed my driver side torsion key was tightened a lot more than my...

    Sorry to bug ya again. I see many go with the Bilstein 4600's instead of the 5100''s. What would be the difference ?

    bilstein 5100 with Stock tires and suspension

    Sorry to comment on such an old thread. I have an 06 Yukon Denali XL, and trying to get a little bit of a lift in order to fit my 32.8x11.3 tires a little better. I'm looking to do the bilsteins with Moog 81069 Springs for the rear (I believe these are equivalent to z71 springs) , I should get...

    Replacement Shocks

    What do you think about what this person said about adding a pad on the LCA to remedy the harsh ride ? "The only reason turning your keys a bit will be harsh is because you leave the jounce stops. Easily remedied with a pad on the LCA. Angles won't be prefect, but if the goal is 33s, a little...
