I'd go with Tony's 4-5/5-6 kit if it were me. I'm on a DJM 3/5, I love it but it's not low enough for me.
That sound kinda low especially with the bad streets here in MA. How about the 2/3 drop? Anybody else with inputs?

just a heads up my 5-6 inch rear drop springs ride great. Ask anyone here. I can set up a kit using my 6 inch drop springs also for you to give you 4 inches

They can't be worse than Wichita Falls' roads. To put this into perspective; My burb sits about even with my friend's new Challenger ground clearance wise. The Challenger's wheelbase is only 9" shorter than a Suburban. In other words, a 3/5 burb is perfectly driveable on our crappy roads so a shorter wheelbased Yukon/Tahoe/Escalade should be okay. I drive mine like I stole it and Have yet to bottom out on anything. My tires rub slightly at times but I'm about to replace them with a shorter tire so I can get ready to go lower

just throwing that our there to keep your options open :headbang:

yeah 3/5 still leaves a lot of ground clearance especially on 305 35 24 or 285 45 22

Anybody got pics with a 2/3 drop?

Here's my 06' Hoe with my boat behind it. I have a 2/3 drop with 20's. Rides great and never bottoms out, even with the boat. Id recommend this for you. Seems to me you don't want to go too low because of the roads. This would be perfect. And if you go Bell Tech, I would recommend the drop spindles rather than the torsion keys. Ask Tony for a price. Very reasonable.

if you only want to do 1 inch get keys. For 2 inches get spindles ride will be much better.
