Few questions on lifting my suburban

[trulywickedcustoms]

I got an 06' suburban LTZ AWD it's hard to explain the whole deal lol but I have a ton of audio gear in it and it now weighs in a little over 10,000lbs
Well needles to say the suspension was shot...
I got a set of ford F350 front coil springs and they wer a direct fit for the rear but now on my stock 20" SS wheels with a 28" tire I have 10" of wheel gap in the rear but only 4.25" up front so I ordered a set of ebay 3" keys and Im hoping I can crank them to 3.5" but we will see I guess??
Only question I have is since the rear is lifted so much should I fab up so shock extenders for the back? And also how do the front extenders work? They came with my kit I bought but if they're junk I'd prefer to just buy good lifted shocks

Anyways just figured I'd ask an for anyone that wants to try it the f350 coils are a direct fit they used the stuck suburban coil punt and rubber on axel and used the ford rubber on the top easy and cheap lift and is supporting all my weight and lifted it
Thanks

You put F350 from the front of the truck under the rear of your burb? How much lift did it give you?

Your best bet is the aftermarket keys cranked and bilstein 5100s, and however much longer you need for the rear.

Well I don't know what it would do to a normal Burban or Tahoe?? But mine weighs in at 10,200 lbs with me in it and a half tank of gas it's the weight of 2 suburbans and I still got over 5" of lift

And did you do your spindles with a stock front end??

Yes spindle lift and keys, but you can't do spindle because if you being awd, Cv axles would explode

Well dang, so what's my options other than keys a full out suspension lift???

Yep, or you can get rusty to swap all the magnets to neos
