2008 GMC Yukon "Regency" Edition Build Thread

If you can change a spring out you can install the back kit. http://kelderman.com/sites/default/files/gmt900install.pdf

That kit wouldn't work for you as you do not have leaf springs.

 

[Regency]

Ahhhh. Well that sucks.

I guess I'll just keep focused on the drop and then when I get the trailer I'll get the rear bag setup and just cancel the one I just linked because I don't have leaf springs.

Thanks man.

Yates..... is that 600.00 shipped?

 

[yates ™]

I could probably do that.

I am just saying by the time you buy helper bags and then springs you will be around $600 and if you decide you want the whole kit later on then the back is done other than rerouting two air lines.

 

[Goodinblack]

I paid 180.00 shipped for my 5301s from Tony. I paid $89.00 shipped for my Airlift 1000s from Amazon.

Ok so a bit more. The rear kit will put you about 2" lower than stock but you could run it at 3" with no problems.

Every cent I spent on my truck is on the first page of my build.

I was honestly guessing at the price as I have not looked up those helper bags.

 

[Goodinblack]

Yates...... that was not directed at you........ I was saying that to Marcus so he would have prices.

 

[yates ™]

Aye, gotcha matey.

Just got off the phone with 11 powder coating and wheel painting shops and they all told me either it'll be risky to paint over chrome or they won't do it. I guess plasti dip it is.

 

[THE YETI]

Chrome should be stripped properly before coating it. And, unfortunately, to strip chrome properly is $$$$. Been there done that.

 

[Regency]

Yep it sucks. At least plasti-dip came out, even though I hate plasti-dip

Major improvement

 

[Regency]

Everything is back on will do a comparison with macho tomorrow and take pics.

Hey quick question.

How much should I be looking at for a built transmission? Tranny has been acting up lately so the wrap will most likely be canceled if something wrong turns out. It's being inspected in the morning.

I'll take a video of what I'm talking about tomorrow.

Thanks guys!
