Help lift kit for 38 or 40" tires ?

[Omar 20]

Hey guys wussup ?

I am planning to buy a used Yukon XL 2500, the model may be 2007 or 2008
And I am planning to do a lot of mod's and custom things.

My first big question : I wanna run 38" M/T 15.50 wide tires on 20X12 or 22X12 with 40" tires. I prefer Kelderman lift kit but It is only available for HD trucks.

I need a front solid axle ? Dana 60 is good then what to do ? Please I dont prefer fender trimming !

Thanks

If you "have" to have a solid front axle then your choices are very limited and will require custom work and fabricating. Now if you want to stick with IFS I would look into Cognito, FTS, BulletProof...all make BIG lifts.

Cognito and FTS make kits for those trucks, I love all the cognito kits we've done.

If you go that big, I think trimming would be the least of your worries with SAS.

I saw kelderman 10-12" for gmc 2500hd and require drop front axle.
So if I did that thing, can I use the kelderman kit ?

cognito has 10-12" but I dont believe the IFS will hold the larger tires !

Who does custom lifts ?

Anything involving a SAS for a 'burb will require custom work, you need to search your area for a custom shop that can comfortably do the work. I think you really need to do alot more research than to just think your going to put 38's-40's on it.

I don't think it is hard to do it !
Kelderman has 10-12" for Sierra 2500HD requires drop front axle.
So maybe if I bought this kit and tried to install it into the Yukon XL 2500HD

However does Yukon XL 2500HD shares the same frame with Sierra 2500HD ?
and the same IFS ?

Thanks

there is no such thing as a "HD" suburban, just a 2500 and it does not share the same frame as the Pickup HD's.

 

[Omar 20]

So yukon xl 2500 share the same frame with yukon xl 1500 ?
it is not clear that Yukon xl 2500 frame doesnt share the same with 2500HD
and doesn't share with 1500 !

Are you just going for size? Are you going to be wheelin' this thing? It all depends on what you want to do. The '07+ trucks have square wheel wells which means you will never be able to stuff that big of a tire.

There are companies that make the Front axle swap kit...

I have been toying with throwing the axles from my totaled Dodge 2500 under my '07 so that I know my axles can handle what I want to throw at it.

It seems like doing a SA conversion on the front would be pretty easy.

Otherwise, like it has been mentioned, check out Bulletproof, or Cognito.
