I've been lurking for some time, finally decided to register. I understand this is a Tahoe Yukon forum and I have an 08 Avalanche, but have you seen the choices for Avalanche forums? This place is awesome!!!

So, Tony.....

08 Avalanche without autoride
I have 305/45/22's, want to keep these tires. I would love to squueze the 2/3 kit you have if you think I can just because I assume the 3/5.5 is too much??

Tony, what will I have to do to fit the 305/45's under the 2/4? I am hearing "lots of trimming and move the window washer container"

TRUE???

Anything else?

Tony, as I told you in our text conversation I already have the 23301 springs and shock extenders. Is there anyway to exclude the extenders from your kit since I already have them? The company I bought the 23301's from are willing to take them back with return shipping on me and no restock fee!!!

this is why i put the kit above. Ive seen different avalances use different springs some sit 1 inch ihgher than others. with this kit since its adjustable you can have a 0-2 inch drop in .5 incraments. I would do a 2 inch front drop then go from there.

Hey guys,

I have a few noob questions, I just picked up my Hoe 3 days ago.

I have a 2010 tahoe lt, if i buy this kit, will it affect the ride/feel of the truck? is it going to be a stiffer ride?

how much would you estimate installation to be for this?

is there a cheaper option for lowering the back only?

last question, how much do i have to drop the back to have it level with the front?

thanks guys!

ride is still good yes and rear you will need to drop to match the front with it.

if you want to only lower the rear I have a kit for that. email me at [email protected]
