I recently was able to finally put my drop on and after all was said and done the stabililink light cane on, what could cause that? I used the 2/4 drop from norcal ss with the drop struts in the front. Any help? Here's a pic of her all done

I'm pretty positive I don't have autoride .... But if I did how would I tell? When I did the drop there were no air lines connected to the shocks or anything that I could see.

if you had air ride, their would be wires going to the top of each front shock, and your rear shock would have an airbag built on to it.

Check all the wiring going to the wheel sensors also, could be pinched somewhere.
Happens all the time out back on NNBS Silverados when you do a flip kit in the rear.

Rear pass side abs plug got me when I lowered my 07. It's mounted to the frame and I pulled the plug "unplugged" when I jacked it up. I had an abs light on too...

There is an electrical connector on top of the frame rail on both the rear driver's side and passenger's side. You can't see them, but you can reach up and feel them. The connectors are immediately above the rear shock mounts on top of the frame rail. The wires are tight and the connectors come apart easily. If you replaced the rear shocks you may have unknowingly pulled one or both of the connectors apart. If one or both connectors came apart, they will throw the ABS and stabilitrac light. Reconnect them and all will be good.

Thanks the only other issue I had was when I took it for an alignment by their numbers my camber/caster if off quite a bit and they couldn't figure out why. I think since they use specs for a stick Tahoe with stock wheels it throws them off, to me it drove better than before and it looks damn awesome! Lol but thanks again for the help.
