Whats up everyone, just traded in my 08 Silverado for a 2010 Yukon SLT. I want to slam it as low as possible but still keep the auto ride in the rear, I plan on doing MGD spindals belltech struts and belltech 4230 springs in the rear with shock extenders and the free travel mod. I just did my friends 2010 non autoride Yukon and it looks sick and still rides good. Is it just a matter of shortening the hight sensors so it still thinks its stock height?? Also do I just put that nut with the sensor on it in the front back on the new strut?? Anyone slam there nnbs autoride suv yet? not too concerned on a stiffer ride considering my silverado had a 5-8 drop on it.

Thanks

Jay

Max drop with autoride is 2/3. I would do Belltech spindles as well.

the traiblazer 4 inch rear djm drop springs i sell will sit lower and ride better than the rear belltechs if you want to get it real low with autoride. Fixing the links is not a problem. You can get the autoride trucks lower than 3 inches easy with the tb spring/djm rear kit and adjusting the autoride links very short lol

btw in front the djm 3 inch upper/lower a arm or 4 inch upper and lower a arm works great if you want to get it low. No loss in ride and you get full turning radius. And cheaper than a strut/spindle set up also. ive had few customers with issues with the drop struts in front with that sensor. if you had non autoride id say do the spindles/struts but with autoride and that sensor in front the a arms are the easy way to go.

Tony, to do that do you have to use the TB springs? Is there any issues going with a TB spring if you tow?

if you want it low then you have to use the tb springs and the autoride still works fine so if you load it up the shocks will level the truck off you can still tow with them.

on the autoride trucks hands down the 3 inch front djm control arm set up with the rear djm tb spring and rear djm hardware kit rides great.

Tony, I am looking for a drop kit that will drop a 2007 Escalade to the tops of the tires 24's, but want the smoothest ride possible. Can you email me which kit and price?

Nope but there are about 18 people that bought the rear springs here. Not many people post up pics after done. but i can say they are much happier over the springs that were in there either stock or aftermarket.

I like R.Beezy's stance 3/4 drop, can the Escalade achieve that and retain my airride?
