2021 Tahoe Z71 Rough Country says no to 2" lift

[sanman28]

Well I kinda said where I got the info, which was the RC Tech support. But no, I didn't know that. So I guess that Tech thinks all z71's have air lift suspension although I told him I didn't. Ok then there shouldn't be a problem installing the 2" RC lift pretty much all I wanted to know. Thx

Yup. U r gtg. No air means most all the lifts will work. Cheers! Post up pics when you are done!

This one may not be a Z71, no badging on it.

Its definitely a z71. He has posted on this forum about his vehicle and the kit he put on it.

Worked great no issues.

RC also claims their kit does not work on a yukon and the reason from their tech support was "they come from the factory with a different ride height" so I'm pretty sure they may be misinformed about what actually comes on these new vehicles. Have this kit on our yukon no issues

The upper ball joints cannot handle being lifted any more. Search around the Silverado/Sierra forums and you'll see tons of people with broken upper ball joints. Hint: it causes a LOT of damage when the upper ball joint fails.

What did you here or know about only the 1" leveling kit for the front end? I wonder if the stealer would void the repair warranty if a ball joint issue occurs. Hmmmm

If tons of folks have this issue, there must be ample evidence on this site. Post a link to a thread.

AT4 levelling kit failure

Well I thought it wouldn’t happen to me, but my ball joint failed, collapsed the UCA and pulled my CV shaft out while on the highway. I highly recommend upgrading to new UCA’s with any levelling kit. I only had 12,000km’s with it installed. I would have bought them but the new UCA’s stick out fur...
