Lifted/Leveled 2021 - Postem Up

[djnice]

Finished my 2024 Yukon XL AT4 build today!

Got the 3" ReadyLift, Fuel Covert 18x9 +1 offset, and 295/70r18 Mickey Thompson Baja Boss ATs (34.6"x11.7").

Note if you just do the ReadyLift and try to put back on the OEM wheels/tires, you need a 1/4 spacer in the front to clear the upper control arms. The tire was sitting on the ball joint prior to the spacers.

To get the new wheels and tires on, I had to trim back the plastic bumper on the front side of the front wheels and zip tie back the liner, as well as cut back the lower lip of the liner slightly. In the rear of the front wheel wells, I removed the "mudflap" bracket, and had a local metal fabrication shop bend the outer edge back toward the frame, then reinstalled and zip tied the liner back. I didn't want to remove the bracket completely in case it's there for some sort of collision safety. No rubbing anywhere at full lock and maybe a 1/4" of extra room to spare. Happy with how it turned out, rides great. Hope this helps someone in the future.



Modified bracket:

Good job on the bracket mod. Its not a mudflap bracket like some people say. Pretty sure the parts list calls it a frame extension. Not sure why it's there, but I surmise it helps with the small Overlap Front crash test and minimizes jamming the wheel into the cab.

I used shims to angle the bracket, but did have plans to get them modified like you did.

2025 Tahoe RST 3.0 diesel with a front 2.25" lift, rear is 2" in photo. I have since lowered the back 3/4" . So it is 1.25" rear lift.

Wheels are 24x10 Vossen HF6-1 with a +25 offset. Mounted with 295/45R24 Nitto tires = 35x11.50R24.

Pulled off the bracket behind the fender liner and self tapped the liner back to the body mount. No rubbing.

Bilstein 5100 at the highest position with K03 285/70r18, +18 offset. I'll likely end up lowering it a bit.

2024 Z71 with RC lift with air suspension and 35/12.50R20 Toyo AT3 tires. I did some custom fabrication on the front fender liner plastic support. I cut 1 inch out of it then plastic welded it back together to use the factory bolts. It pulled the front of the fender liner back just over an inch. Looks factory this way. The only issue is a vibration from the rear CV axles when the suspension unloads over a bump at highway speed. Not sure what I will do to correct that just yet. Maybe RCV axles?

I highly doubt rcv has axles for these things. Did the lift drop the rear diff at all?
