I believe, the "raising up", is when you were towing or carried a heavy weight,.. then it returns back to the correct height, after removing the trailer weight.- mountie

New-Nivomats... ( Old subject/new problem ) Do they exist??
Just a thought..... Since there are 3 or 4 (? ) versions of a ZW7 package, for the same type model, ( as per my research )..... Maybe check at your local dealer, for the parts used in those versions, and copy it, into the truck in question. Use GM parts or an aftermarket with the same specs.- mountie

New sway bar end links
As long as your adjustment is reasonably close.... Better to have a tad pointed inward, than out. I believe, alignment, is not pointed perfectly straight ahead.... But a tiny percent pointed inward. Tiny bit.... Just pay attention when you make a turn. ( Front steering may not corporate )- mountie

I don't know, if you can find the coil spring rate, on your current set up..... I don't know if even GM can tell you the spring rate on the springs your Denali came with..... ( Maybe the diameter of the coil ?? )- mountie

Intro-05 Denali Yukon shocks
Hellwig front / rear swaybars. I replace both.... I LOVE them!! Factory swaybars are a hollow pipe...... Hellwigs are a stout solid chrome molly, and all new hardware. Get a flashlight.... go underneath, look at the ends of your rear swaybar..... Notice the ends are "crimped flat"...- mountie

Intro-05 Denali Yukon shocks
To add...... As you describe, " Shocks need replacing"....... I can guess...... Those coil springs are too soft, as if the replaced coil springs may have been ALSO too soft. Your G65 code requires a soft coil spring, because, the original correct factory shock supports a lot of the weight. My...- mountie

Intro-05 Denali Yukon shocks
Your RPO shows the "G65" which shows, your original shocks are an adjusting - height, setup. Your local GM dealer will tell you what is specific for your Denali Z55 suspension, showing your VIN number. BTW...... Your springs "look" pretty much newer than an original spring would look like by...- mountie
