Nice. how's the ride?

Not too bad. A tad stiffer but I figured the 5100s will surely help out with that.. Thanks for compliments guys.. For the longest time I thought i was the only enthusiast of these behemoths lol.. Nice to see there are quite a few of us out there. Nice trucks by the way guys..

How much did those keys and spacers run you?

 

[28.]

about 45 for keys and if i remeber correctly about 59 for spacers. both from ebay..

That looks awesome! Definatley doing that to my Denali now. How long did everything take? Got links to the parts you bought? What size tires you gonna run?

 

[28.]

Thank you..Got them from here ( http://myworld.ebay.com/mcbay-performance-inc/ )
.. But shop around. You just have to shop a little bit and you can usually find them cheap. Buy them seperate like i did and you save a little bit.. I did anyway..


Hope to run at least 33x12 on 16s with correct backspacing of course.. Would that be too much tire fellas?

Ok, did you get shock extensions are is it ok to still run the oem shocks? I have rear air ride. I'm looking at 33's too. Check out treadwright.com for awesome deals on tires

On factory shocks right now but waiting on delivery of some 5100s.. I dont think you'll be able to do the spacers if you have auto(air) ride.. Not certain though. You probably should hit up someone whose done a level on a denali and see what you find out.. Sorry.. Oh and thanks for the tire info..

I couldn't get my rear end dropped enough on my denali to do spacers so I just did Z71 springs. Autoride disabled.

 

[Jonah52]

At size are ur tires? 33's or 35's? Where's the best place to get the springs? And there's no way to do spacers?

 

[03Dnasty]

I have 33's. Got the springs from Rockauto.com just search MOOG Part # 81069 Only way I could see doing the spacers on my truck wold be to rent spring compressors from an auto parts store and drop the rear end like the guy did that started this thread. I didn't wanna go though all that trouble so just went the spring route.

Half Shaft Angle

I am looking to do the same thing with my 05 Z71 and run a 33" tire. I was wondering how the angle of the front half shafts is after the lift....anyone out there who has had this setup for a while and could give advice on longevity?
