You're 36.5" at the rear and 35" at the front? I'd be excited about that, not concerned. Anyway, do you know what your measurements were before?

How about some better pics? Can you get a pic (with the sun BEHIND you) of the front wheel gap and the rear wheel gap? That'll help some.

There are plenty of folks in completely stock trim here. Maybe someone can post what their front and rear measurements are. Seems to me you're only a half inch or so off in the back. I'd imagine that it looks BETTER than most stock trucks around you, doesn't it?

Ok I been paying attention to other Yukon and hoes around me and I feel like my Yukon is way lower than it should be. Could my suspension be altered or is it just me? I brought my truck to the dealer for service and asked and they seem to agree with me. What's that all about? Any insight?

Was the vehicle inspected by your dealer? Do you have any vehicle modifications?

I will get more photos; it looks too low to me though so it kind of bothers me with the look

Louis, I did a whole safety check on the truck last month and recently brought it in for service. At my local dealer they hardly do the bare minimum so I will no longer deal with them

What should I buy to give me a raise? I was looking into adding 24inch wheels new rotors and brake pads so if I am already there should I go with some new struts?

What do you think is too low? The front, or the back?

Ok. Because you don't have "struts" in the rear. You have shocks (I'm assuming autoride shocks, in a Denali) and springs. If your springs are sagging or are aftermarket, then a simple spring swap should do the trick.

I'd be interested in seeing full side shots of your truck as it is. Most people, including me, can't stand how high these trucks sit in the rear from the factory.
