2019 Suburban mid travel

Not sure if this guy is on the forums, but on instagram @projectsuburban

He has king 2.5, baja kits(now camburg) UCAs and clears 35s with trimming. This is the exact setup I want to pursue in the future for my build. Here are some pics from his instagram and the last one of my truck on 33s:

From his instagram posts, this is his setup:

King 2.5 piggyback shocks
BDS 2" top mount coil spacer
Z71 coil spring swap

I’d go this direction IMO:

Yeah that's pretty slick. I like both builds for different reasons

That’s pretty much what I want to do, Tons of free travel, upper and lower uniball arms and I don’t mind pushing my front track out 2” on each side. I was looking at Baja kits and Icons mid travel kits.

glad I could see the rear set up too, I was thinking the Z-71 and 2” spacer setup also maybe some limiting straps for droop and upgraded trailing arms for articulation. I especially like that I can fit those piggyback shocks in the stock location.

Well here’s a late update I finally pulled the trigger and got my uniball uppers my alignment cams and my king 2.5 remote reservoir coil overs. When I get a chance I’m going to order King remote reservoir piggyback shocks For the rear. I’m coming up due for new tires so I think I’m gonna go up a size to 35“ x 12.50 needle tires or Goodyear Wrangler duratracs again. This set up should keep me at my 3 inch height that I prefer

I went with the ADS stuff. I had to dial back the preload quite a bit to match the z71 springs. (And z71 bumps).

These are 600# springs on the coilovers.

Curious how much needs trimming to fit 35’s

I know some guys back off on the preload and add anywhere from 1/2”-1” spacer to help out.

That stance looks good right there, I’ll figure out trimming once I get the new rims and tires delivered. Will be interesting.

all right, so here’s a little bit of an update on my mid travel build,
I purchased 275/70r18 Goodyear territory tires, which are OEM on the new Silverado ZR2 (I was going to do the 305 size, but they don’t offer that in a narrow 35”)
Rims are 18x9 KMC impact in 0mm offset. So no more wheel spacers.

Now the big thing is that I waited nine weeks for my 2.5 inch remote coil overs and had to change them to fox because dirt king was having issues with availability but they told me the foxes are actually better quality now and should last longer and ride better.
I drive semi trucks so it’s taking a bit for me to get home and install everything.
I will post pictures when I do the install around October 22.
