    Lifted FINALLY!!!!!!

    I'll try to get some pics of mine up. Same front kit with stock keys, 2" rear spacers, all level. What you did with the front kit and added keys is pretty common with the expedition guys. The extra center clearance from keeping the torsion bar xmember in the stock location is pretty valuable...

    Superlift PN3364

    What I like about this kit as opposed to a 6" is that it uses the stock knuckles up front, so you can run stock offset if you don't want the wheels outside the fenders. Also, you lose ground clearance at center with a 6" since the torsion bar bracket is dropped 3-4". I did this kit with 2"...

    Superlift PN3364

    Did you ever get this put together? I'm about to order something after high-centering mine at the deer lease twice. Debating this kit, or getting a 6" and de cranking a bit.

    Torsion bar and upper control arm questions

    Jacking it up is the best plan. Another thing that helps make things easier is a drop of oil on the tip of the adjuster bolt. Smooths out the whole process.

    Torsion bar and upper control arm questions

    Is it possible you swapped the driver and passenger side bars?

    Any pics of 17X8 wheels with -6mm offset?

    Please share when you get it done. I passed on the ones I found, but still plan to buy a set and put 305/70r17's on them. By my calculations, it should move the tire edge out 2" with the additional offset and lift. This would be near flush with the top of the fender flare. ---------- Post...

    Any pics of 17X8 wheels with -6mm offset?

    I found a deal on some pro comp wheels here in houston, but they're a -6 offset. I haven't seen any pictures of these installed after searching and I'm curious how much they'll stick out with a 33x12.50 mounted. ---------- Post added at 12:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:57 AM...

    Superlift PN3364

    Get to play with the kit yet? I'm still interested if you end up not using it, but I'd also like to hear how it turns out if you decide to install.

    2003 Yukon leveling kit

    eBay leveling keys, shock extenders if you plan to keep the same shocks. Should be around $100.

    Lifting Autoride Tahoe with shocks

    You could install the keys and level the front to the rear. If you don't install rear coil spacers and just level the front, you may be able to get away without using shock extenders. They're only around $30 on eBay though.

    Tahoe swaying after leveling

    I wouldn't want to heat the LCA that much, but I guess it's possible. Brazing would be the best procedure since there are two different types of metal. I've gone about 2000mi on these in the last few weeks, and they've yet to move.

    New Wheels!

    Do you know what the backspacing/offset is?

    Tahoe swaying after leveling

    Easier than drilling the steel stock. It's soft cast, just use a sharp bit.

    Fun with Coilovers

    That's an option, but you're pretty much limited to 6" of lift or higher with the sas. I'd like to stay around 3" of lift. I think I'm going with the superlift 2.75" kit. It's full drop brackets, dropped centrelink, and adjustable from 2"-3.5". I'll tackle the Coilover kit if the ride with...
