Following, as I was wondering if anyone upgraded their front coil springs after doing a drop.
I did bilstein 5100s and factory springs and it still seems like the front end is alittle bounce. 2016 denali with magride delete and I did the belltech 2/4 drop with front drop spindles.
Replacement valve spring went in lastnight. Truck is up and running. No CEL, No Misfire or other noises. Think it's safe to say everything else is healthy.
Will be ordering a full set of springs tonight and swapping them all out ASAP
Another update folks....
Pulled the Y-pipe and checked all cats. Nothing collapsed and they are relatively clear.
Pulled the passenger side valve cover over since we heard some ticking. Cyl4 valve spring was broken. My scope wasn't small enough to fit into the cylinder. Will be putting a stock...
Yes was thinking the same on the sensor. Found it so strange that the car idled nearly fine with the cats disconnected. I would think if there were no exhaust blockage then it would still run poorly/stall with them disconnected
This thread has been a bit of a self update but I'll share anyway.
Loosened the nuts to both headers and started the truck. It runs rough with the exhaust disconnected of course but idle bounces around 750 and it doesn't stall now.
Going to drop the Y pipe and inspect the cats with a scope...
Had a mechanic friend plug in his scanner since mine only reads codes. Checked the fuel trims and looks like it may be a failed cat.
Hoping to drop the Y pipe tonight and see if it runs better.
I think it would make sense since I went to accelerate and the car started misfiring when it was...
Crazy, wish I saw this post sooner. I did the same thing to my truck back in March. Had the new kyb mounts blow apart because of the kissing sleeve. I have to agree even after rather still bounce more than I'd like for being stiffer. But I think I need to get rid of the kyb mounts as the...
Hey all,
Pulling onto the highway lastnight and was accelerated to merge when the truck downshifted and began hesitating. Had a flashing CEL and immobilizer light was on.
After getting towed home and scanning the car I had the following codes.
P0300 Random/mult. Cyl Misfire.
P0106/P0106PD...
I'll get some photos but all I can see it the rub marks on the swaybar. Another member posted photos of the same issue.
It is definitely strange, I just wondered if aftermarket bars had different geometry to add clearance (coming from VW's i know Hotchkiss made under axle kits to avoid rubbing...
Anyone here install hellwog or Hotchkiss on a dropped truck?
I have a question xl denali with the belltech 2/4 kit and the swaybar rubs on half turns. Its a pain when parking.
I want to upgrade the bars anyway and was hoping one of the 2 would fix the problem
I deleted it on all 4 corners with the SDE sensors and the truck rides great on the new setup.
2016 XL Denali, front bilstein 5100 on stock springs, rear arnott struts with auto level and belltech 2/4 drop.
I was riding on blown front magrides and when I got the truck they were already on...
Tony thay was my first instinct but I always drive in 2wd and I tell the wife to drive in auto if its raining haha

Its got 80k. I thought about that but they seemed fine when I installed my drop spindles last weekend (noise occurred before suspension install).
And its only at the specific speed range, doesn't increase or continue with speed [emoji2369][emoji2369]

Hey All,
My 16 yukon xl denali has had a strange noise that seems to be coming from the front end.
Between 15 & 25 MPH there's is an almost humming/buffering noise on accel/deceleration. (Its the kind of noise you feel directly in your eardrum, hard to explain, but there is ZERO vibration)
I...
So I had the same misconception and was trying to get front and rear arnott replacementd but fronts were out of stock.
To my knowledge they are a delete kit with built in sensors. Just installed the rears this past weekend and have no complaints so far

Hahaha sounds like me and my wife.
Magride failed on her 16 xl denali. Went with bilstein 5100 fronts and arnott rears. Convinced her it needed a belltech 2/4 kit.
Think I need to adjust the rear autolevel links because it still looks abit on the high side. But we'll see how it settles on the...
Steve did you ever figure this out?
I ordered bilstein 5100's for my fronts on my yukon xl denali and need delete springs as well.
My RPO codes are 6ZS & 7ZR.
I accidentally order two #23312164 which come up as the left spring for my RPO but are right springs for RPO 7ZR. This makes no sense...
Questions for the group.
I have a '16 xl denali as well and am replacing the entire suspension setup. Currently waiting for bilstein 5100 fronts to arrive and arnott rear delete kit.
GM parts group gave me 2 #s for front springs (gm#23312164 left coil spring & gm#23312165 right coil spring)...
Not sure about OP, but I'm more so just looking to touch up some minor curb rash myself so its less noticeable. There are a few reputable alloy wheel repair shops on my area. Worst case I'll go that route

+1 because my wife curbed the wheels on our 16 denali and I want to touch them up also.
She has the 22" gunmetal finish without the bolts in the spokes
OP if you found a source for wheel paint codes let me know!

Chuck will retune if youre unhappy with the outcome first time around. Similar to what i think blackbear does with online tunes (at least what I gathered from reading posts, have no personal experience with a blackbear tune).
As for future mods I think there's an additional cost to retune.
