I did not need them on either of my short wheel bases but my new-to-me long one has a vibration under hard acceleration at highway speeds and loosening all the rear control arms and twisting the axle to change the pinion angle a little did reduce it. I plan to buy the DJM control arm relocators to see what happens. They irritate me because any time I e-mail them asking questions they can't or won't answer.

I’ve been running Belltech shock extenders and the DJM sway bar end links for 4 years now and I have had zero problems and I have by far the lowest 07-14 static suv there is

Nope. My window unit HVAC in my shop committed suicide and took the outlet out with it. Been busy installing a mini split. And it's too cold to work outside anyway. We've had snow twice this week, which we rarely get.
Lots of good info in here. Getting ready to lower my parents 07 Yukon as it’s a little too difficult for my 76 year old mother to get in at stock height and was wondering about Tony still having PayPal issues or not. Will wind up just piecing the kit together bit by bit to get a 2”/4” and keep rear factory air ride.
Post up your progress if you can and what you are using. Are you doing the free travel mod? I want to lower mine too but I want to keep it simple.

I’m going to bet that he doesn’t actually have PayPal issues, he just doesn’t want to refund people. I’ve never heard of PayPal holding your money and not allowing you to refund people you scammed

Sorry to let you down guys. The parts are still sitting in my shop for now. I got pulled away from Yukon mods for a while due to a side hustle opportunity I couldn't pass up. I'll pop back in when I get some time to work on this.
It's my DD, so I'm expecting to spend one weekend on the free travel mod, and the following one installing the drop. If I'm especially quick/lucky with the FTM, I may get to do it all in the same weekend. But my experience tells me that's not likely.
I did my 1019 Belltech 2/4 drop this past Sunday, it took me 12 hours and for some reason I only got just around 1 3/4" drop in the rear and about 1.5" in the front I'm confused what's going on. also now one of my air ride shocks is leaking. I wonder if its cuz its putting to much air in them do to the rod length being to long.

You can’t just leave the stock air shocks in there and install drop springs. If you have a 4” drop spring then you need to trick the sensor into thinking the truck is still stock height
