I am afraid to go further than my dirt road with this all wheel drive system with no low gear! I wish I could do a little bit but i dont think that is gonna happen.

Do you have any kind of lift on there or is it stock? I'm thinking about running 33" tires next summer on mine.

 

[04denali]

I had new keys put on and I put 2" spacers in the rear.. My air ride went out so instead of $600 in parts I got $50 spacers. I think the rear is just barely above stock, right at 38"

 

[DenaliAK]

Cool, thanks for the info.

I had to replace my rear suspension, too, but I went with aftermarket Bilstein/Arnott direct replacement air shocks. About 1/3 the price of OEM but kept the air ride. Eventually I think I'll do away with that system altogether, but I was having a hard time finding a local shop that knew how to swap in some normal shocks.

 

[04denali]

It is direct replacement. I just bought some skyjacker hydro shocks for $65 pair.. Of course your service ride control will come on, kinda aggravating but I have ignored it for the year it has been on.. You can change them out yourself with simple tools

How mutch rubbing do you get?
I also have a 04 YD AWD, and wanting some 33's.

What exact size are yours?
33x11.5x17 or 33x12.5x17 or 305/75/17?

I really dont want Any rubbing.
Currently I am at stock ride height, with 285/75/16, they are borrowed from a friend. From his 02 silverado. I have Zero rubbing.
My 265/17's are bald and needed to pass inspection.
