    Heat on 82° only

    I would suspect you have an issue with the "temp" blend door actuator, which is an easy one to get to. passenger side nearest to the console. Ive had mine come unplugged a few times, and my air acted crazy! This actually happened again last week. Not sure if someone kicked it loose, or what. But...

    RENAMED!! The adventures of Chase and his 2006 Yukon XL Denali!! Follow along on my travels!

    How do you think the dura-coating would work on a dirt/gravel driveway ? Everytime it rains I have to clean my tires again, seems like they are magnets for the dirt/grime.

    Wanna see some bushings?

    You should be good to go with the spindles on stock alignment cams. Saw you had mentioned maybe going with DJM control arms. They make a solid product. I am so glad they changed their powerdercoat to black now instead of the silver hammered look they had before. lol

    Need new shocks - best recommendations

    The 4600 bilstein will give a great ride, lowered, or stock. The 5100's are more of an offroad/heavy duty shock. I will suggest if you do lower your truck and use bilstein 4600's pickup a set of shock extenders, as when you lower them, you will not have the correct travel needed. hope this...

    Camber alignment kit.

    depending on how you lowered your truck, If you used torsion keys only, you'll likely have more camber than if you used a drop spindle/key combination. A spindle keeps the factory geometry, just moves the hub location up 2" from stock. Keys reindex the torsion bar, causing more camber. hope...

    DJM Sway Bar Link and LCA Relocation Kit Doesn't Fit

    I would not recommend sticking the belltech shock relocation brackets between the DJM trailering arm relocator bracket. You will need DJM or mcgaughys style shock relocation brackets if you dont plan to get the proper length drop shocks. Also, when installing the djm endlink kit, it is best...

    Beltech 2" drop spindle issues/questions

    You need to flip your upper control arms over, and press the balljoints out, and flip them over. here are the results. I am no longer running stock arms, but here is stock style arms with moog balljoints. I don’t think you’ll have to cut the threads to clear the axle either. hope this helps!

    My New Denali hit the Dealer's lot yesterday!

    Interior does look first class. I’d total that interior in 1 week with my job. how is the power on that thing ? 6.2 10 speed I assume ?

    2003 Tahoe 32”/33.5” with mcgaughys 3/5 drop..best way to level?

    Im fully aware. not what i was asking. I run belltech 4923's in the front as well. I can actually feel the metal cup slam against the control arm at times. was wondering how far your metal cup is from your control arm? not the bumpstop itself.

    2003 Tahoe 32”/33.5” with mcgaughys 3/5 drop..best way to level?

    How much room do you have between your front bumpstop cup and the lower control arm ?

    Horrible alignment problems continued

    I run 285/50/20 30.25 front ground to fender, 31.25” rear, cut stock coils. No other coils would support the weight. Using belltech keys, spindles, and belltech bumpstops, they are smushed down it feels sloppy like a butter churn. I’m running street performance shocks, they are not good. 2...

    Horrible alignment problems continued

    I do haul 1000+lbs of audio equipment in the back. how big of difference compared to stock on the rear arms? I think I’m a good bit lower than you are in the front. There’s absolutely no way in hell I could have fixed my camber without these arms. I tried the moogs, belltech cams etc. no...

    Horrible alignment problems continued

    Here are some pictures of the MMW arms installed. Got 5000 miles on them, tires are wearing perfect. Balljoint angle is good. Terrible pictures. Ended up using stock cams, way better than the Belltech. Bumpsteer is still pretty bad, and the rear end sways at highway speeds 70+ it feels like a...

    Horrible alignment problems continued

    Interesting you mention the KYB stabilizer causing drag on the steering. The weird thing is I did the stabilizer prior to installing the Michigan metal works arms, and the bumpsteer kit, which basically is a heim joint, and spacer and longer bolt to keep the tie rods parallel to the ground. It...

    Horrible alignment problems continued

    Hey man, sorry i never updated this thread. SO i finally have a perfect alignment, I ended up buying michigan metal works "camber cure" upper control arms. Which offered me TONS of adjustment. I had previously installed belltech camber kit, which ended up NOT being used on the michigan metal...

    06 2wd spindle lift on 33’s.

    I think you’ve owned enough to answer it honestly. my 5/5 dropped Tahoe doesn’t ride / handle great As expected. how is the ride quality, steering and swaying / overall feel of the truck lifted now ? Similar to stock?

    06 2wd spindle lift on 33’s.

    are you the same wicked mayhem from s10forum? I still own a bagged sonoma, just dont get on the s10forum much. Tahoe looks killer. I MIGHT do this deal to mine, take the drop kit off and lift it

    Ridetech air suspension

    Wrong information here. 2wd and 4x4 all use the same front and rear suspension. this kit WILL work on 4x4, however your cv axles will be in the way of the airbags. If you plan to run 4x4, look into the bag brackets that mount to the upper control arm...

    Rocking from left front to rear rear

    I’ll throw my 2 cents into this. keep in mind the suspension is a parallel 4 link in the rear with a panhard bar. When the suspension compresses in the rear the rear axle moves to the right side. It’s the panhard bar “pulling” to the right if you can understand that. hence why you feel the...

    Horrible alignment problems continued

    we had a tractor fall to the ground at work due to those pos stands. Well last week I ordered some Michigan metal works control arms that are “camber cure” they are longer than stock. If that doesn’t work, I’ll go back 100% stock, and install some lift spindles and moog springs in the rear...

    Horrible alignment problems continued

    That was only because my fat ass couldn’t slide under the truck far enough to install the steering stabilizer at ride height. The wheels were still on the ground. And I was at my friends house with no tools LOL
