Hi all, I have a 2003 Yukon xl slt 4x4. I've gotten the front end pretty well rebuilt, gotta do a ball joint at some point but she's barely moving as of now. So I'm gonna need shocks because she's old 272 kms (Canadian) I really like the idea of a lift, but I don't wanna mess with ride quality all that much, still haven't really felt the way it should probably feel since I've owned it (needing shocks). So my question is what's a really good entry level lift, that wont mess with factory ride. The truck doesn't have rear air, just the fat shocks, ill look up the rpo today, and let you guys know.

Stock suck, so it either has to go up or come down

I would have to disagree. I try to keep things as stock as possible because every change comes at a cost. With some exceptions, the more stock the vehicle is, the longer it will last.
However, lifted or lowered does look cool.

I have to agree, lowering is also a consideration, but i keep reading everyone having trouble with the bump stops, my suspension guy is a bit of a "nancy" i dont think i could talk him into cutting anything off lol.
