I don't think the 01 has a strut/spring assembly but I may be wrong. Search the Internet and you should be able to find a video that demonstrates this for you year. It is more intimidating than hard. Just be careful.

When the front suspension is unloaded there is next to no pressure on the assembly, it's an easy remove.

Ok. So I went to autozone and had them scan my Yukon. The code showed right rear wheel sensor. So this morning I pulled the right rear wheel off and checked the sensor wire. No damage. But I'll be darned it came unplugged up on frame connection. Plugged it back in and problem solved. Now I love this truck even more. Thanks for everyone's help.

Another thing you might look at is there are connections on top of the frame rail near both rear shocks. I know when I did my 2" drop I got these same messages you're speaking of and it's because I accidentally knocked one of those connections loose. All I did was plug it back in and it cleared the issue up.

Well, lookie there I was right :lol: Glad that the fix was easy and cost you no money!! I'm actually glad that I'd had this issue before when doing my 2" drop because when doing my 2/4 drop this weekend I double checked those connections on both sides after putting my shocks on and I'd accidentally unplugged BOTH sides :facepalm: I'm not sure why those are so easy to unplug but it almost takes no effort for those to come lose :(

When I removed my air ride I didn't have a problem with this, you must have sausage fingers :imo:

fat fingers that have a hard time working in small places!! :lol: Those upper bolts on the shocks were hard from me to get to because of their location. The passenger side was MUCH worse because of all of the AC lines back there :lol:
