That looks so sweet!!! Can't wait to get my Hoe lowered. I just got my stuff from Tony and I am waiting for my Gianelle wheels that should be here this week. I will have it all lowered next week with my new wheels and will get pictures up. You sure have motivated me to get some work done this weekend.

what size tires do you have 305 or 295? I have rear 2'' lowering springs on my Yukon w/ 26's. I really thinking going with 2/4 drop ASAP. What all did you have to do as far as trimming front and rear????

Bought Tony's Belltech 2/4 drop with the adjustable front struts. Gotta tell you, this thing rides BETTER than stock. I had the 26's before the drop. No ride change in the front but soooo smooth and damps really nice in the back...Lil background, this is a XFE hoe. Measure 1" lower (all 4 corners) than regular tahoes. I measured 36.5 in the front and 38" in the back (floor to fend lip) before the drop. so I lowered it 1.5" in the front and 3" in the back (spacers on). With 26" wheels it measures 35" front and 35.5" back. Lil plastic trimming was req... Yes, yes, yes I had an aligment done the same day. Next, blackout tail lights and posibly debadged....

P.S. Tony, thanks for all the patience helping a newbie out! :Handshake:

Glad you like the ride man told yah i wouldn't steer you wrong on the 26s.
I looking to go with a 2/4 drop on my 07' Yukon with 26's. I already have 2'' rear drop springs. whats the difference between these two drop kits you sell and which is better as far as ride?

If you have higher mileage honestly I would do this drop kit which adds in new rear shocks

if your on a budget you can do this drop kit
http://www.tbssowners.com/store/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=106

and then do the rear shocks when you have the funds.

If you had higher miles thats why i suggested the drop struts.

The spindle/rear spring combo for 525 is fine for what you need with 46k miles.

Sorry for the lat late response.. I'm on 305/30/26. As far as trimming goes, I drove it for a lil while then pulled the wheels off and trimmed everywhere there were signs of rubbing. There were non on the top part of the liners but I used a heat gun on both front wheel liners (front part close to the fender and back part close to the doors). I also had to push the winshield fluid reservoir forward and kind of hold it back with a metal string to the fender mounts and also hammer the lilttle metal part of the chasis that sits right infront of the front doors before the tire biggins (it's underneath the liners). Use a rubber hammer for that!! The back was a cake. No rubbing in the top but had to cut a bit the inner sides of the liners (both sides)....
I'll load some pictures later on for ya! hope it helps some....
