2013 Yukon Denali coil springs

[Austin12]

I have a 2013 yukon Denali and as of now it’s stock coil springs with the air ride shocks I beleive there a little worn when the truck sits in the driveway it sets about 3” lower in the back I do have a 2.5” leveling kit that been on for years but when I bought it it nose dived 3 inch’s. but I’m thinking of doing a rear air shock delete and installing heavy duty springs. Anybody done this? If so any ideas opinions and pictures would help

Pics of the truck, please.

When you say a 2.5" leveling kit installed, is this kit on the front suspension? If your active suspension is working correctly, the truck should self level, and I'm getting the impression from your text that the truck is not level.

Can you provide some additional clarification?

Note that you can get stiffer/stronger rear springs by ordering the OEM 'non-Denali non-active suspension' rear springs.

The 2.5 leveling kit is on the front struts and no the auto leveling does not work anymore. I’m wanting to delete all the shocks and install resistors but I’m not sure on what to do to delete the auto leveling in the back as my air compressor has recently stopped working

If your goal is to bypass the active suspension and install a passive suspension, then remove the fuse for the compressor.

There are tons of threads posted on the 2007-2014 suspension subsection of the forum that detail this exact process and what you’ll need to accomplish this goal. If you use the search function in that specific subsection of the forum and use search the words autoride delete or air ride suspension conversion, you'll come up with exactly what you’re looking for.
