Watcha guys think about my baby? Recently sold my 22's cause i like the stock look. With the new control arms up front and flip kit in the back it rides like stock. Also have hid's, steel cowl hood, and sport mirrors. Would bag and body drop but this is my everyday vehicle.

No worries dude, I wouldn't care if it were the lounge but your truck's suspension is completely unrelated to the topic at hand.

Truck is no lower than it was before, front is actually higher with the new bumpstops. Once I have some rear shocks I'll see how much lower it sits but the coils have only been on a week. I'm hoping it will settle lower but I'll probably end up trying the djm 4" coils :(

Haven't adjusted the body mounts, may be the next step or perhaps some coil bucket modifcation. I'm bout to drop the shit out of the front, who cares about bumpers I need an HD hood anyway and body work isn't much loot.

I love the belltech tb coils but I'm probably going to buy the djm tb coils if this doesn't settle low enough after I change shocks. Truck is sitting at 31" except the passenger rear sits 1/2" higher than the driver side.

Max have you thought about contacting qa1 and seeing about getting some 12way adjustable shocks from them. I am curious as to how good there shocks are

Their shocks are good, I've ran them on sprint cars with great success, I just want bilsteins. Truck is filthy but it is lower, just not low enough.

I think you need to detail your denali and get some updated pictures of it besides the ones in your album :)

Hood is all chipped to hell but I'll get some pics in a week or two when it gets back to 70°. I'm gonna try messing with the body mounts, need to tuck tire out back.

Still looking sick, disappointment it did not get to where you wanted, did you try taking the shocks off and letting the truck sit on the coils only for a while to see if its the shocks or coils?
Foxes retail for $150, bilsteins are $84/ea. I'm calling bilstein tomorrow to check on our purchase orders, thinking my shocks are holding the ass up because I installed the new coils tonight and it only dropped about 1/2" but the spring rate seems to be higher on these which is great. I now have approximately 1" of uptravel on my shocks and the axle is about 3" from the frame. I was hoping for a bit more drop but it is a good thing if these coils are stiffer once settled. Once I get the shocks sorted out, section 1/2" out of the panhard to relocate the axle, and cut some new sway bar links it should ride pretty nice and I'll finally be done with the damn thing. I don't have pics of it on the ground since it was getting late at work and I wanted to get the hell out of there, but here is a pic of the two springs old vs. new:

Here is how the truck sat Tuesday, hopefully this gives me the extra inch I'm after or I'll just bag the damn thing :crazy:
