    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    This is my first GM, and I researched quite a bit before buying into the gmt800 platform. It was gmt800 or pre 2010 6.2L gmt900, mainly wanted to avoid AFM. I have a lot to learn! Rig has treated me well so far, going on a year of owning it, was a 1 owner 173k miles when I bought it. Been...

    Sounds good , thank you. Also, just to be sure, you know this is going on an 06 Yukon Denali XL right? Just want to make sure in case you thought it was going on something else.

    Got it. Thank You! So I think I'm settled. Gonna get the 0-1" Bilstein 5100's for the rear w/ the Moog HD 81069 Coil Springs, gonna pick up 4 new insulators for the springs as well. Is there anything else I should get? Gonna see if the stock keys get me level without them being maxed out, and...

    for the bilsteins in the rear. the ones you linked say it's for 3", not for 0-3", am I missing something here? I'm confused whether it'd be So , I think I may just do the bilstein 5100's and new springs for the rear. Now , I noticed you linked me the 3" lift 5100's (part 24-185783) , would it...

    Oh man, thank you so much for the thorough reply! now say I was to choose the torsion keys route, would you go with the maxtrac keys and shock extenders or are there "better" ones you'd recommend ? https://maxtracstore.com/2000-2006-gmc-denali-2wd-4wd-1-3-front-lift-kit-maxtrac-880513/...

    So if you wanted a 2” lift which method would you go with that would be considered an upgrade ? Thank you for your reply.

    Sorry for the confusion. I meant which was “better” for option 2 between using ac delco parts vs the bilstein/moog (not in comparison to stock air ride) And I must be bad at research but for the life of me I can’t find many who kept the air ride and did a mild lift lol, it’s usually either...

    Would doing option 2 with Bilstein 5100's and Moog coil springs be better, or would you stick with the oem? Ideally I'd like to just repair my air ride but I do want about a 2" lift, which I don't see much info on except that I would need shock extender brackets, so I'm thinking of just doing...

    So what did you end up doing? I looked up pictures of some trucks and really like the look of one that sounds similar to what you were trying to do, small lift and 33's. I'm just trying to figure out the best way to go about it. Here's a link of the one I'm talking about. Only difference is...

    Suspension Help

    Thank you for your reply. Do you happen to have any pictures of your setup with the Michelins, and now ? I’m curious to see. So all you did was the keys ? Did that affect anything ? And you didn’t do anything to the rear suspension ?
