02Yukon to Denali

This is a shot with stock spindles back on. Measurements 34-1/2 front and 35 rear

Belltech spindles dropped mine to 33 1/2 and your at 34 1/2 with stock spindles? I was at 35 1/2 before I lowered the front of mine with stock spindles. What size tires are those?

285/50/20 Our ride heights have never matched up when comparing components.

I almost forgot to mention the stainless steel brake lines. I was mainly focusing on the ride to see if it was any smoother when I was coming up to a stop light and had to stop more quickly than usual. It was a noticeable difference and a nice surprise. Overall, I'd say the 07+ upgrade is worth it if you have over-sized wheels. They can really tax the stock brake setup; I only have 20s. I can't imagine riding 24s on the stock setup.

To be fair, I had turned the torsion bars up with the lowering spindles to make it look better. There was too much rake without turning it up.

**EDIT: Also keep in mind my wheel size and A/T treads. Like I said in an earlier post, if I had 22s or 24s then it would've been fine to keep the spindles. It just looked a bit off being that low with a beefier tire.

Here are a few pics of the new stance since I went with non z-71 moog rear shocks. I also finally got some time over Christmas break to install the lower valence for the bumper and headlights that have been sitting in the garage for a year.

Looking good man.

So are you back at stock height now?

Not exactly. Rear is slightly lower than stock and front is a bit higher since I turned up the torsion bolts. There's a slight rake.

what's done to the rear?
