2024 Yukon AT4 with Fuel Blitz rims and Toyo AT3s

[djnice]

I installed it myself. Install would probably cost $400. This kit does the job, but I think the Ready lift 3" kit is better quality. I wanted a little shorter so I can fit in the garage.

Shows why relocation brackets are needed. They only come with ready lift kits.

Sharing a few photos of my Yukon with original wheels/tires and aftermarket. Not great photo weather. I might add some others when the sun comes back.
- Wheels are 20x9 Fuel Blitz +1 offset
- Tires are P rated 285/60/20 Toyo Open Country AT3

It is pretty much what I was after. I will get a lift installed next. Tires rub forward and reverse as expected with the +1 offset. So far the Toyo’s are quiet and ride good. Maybe a little hum on smooth pavement at 40 to 50.

It does have OEM wheels and tires loading down the back in this picture so it's sitting a little low.

Looks good now swap out running boards for Suburban tube side steps I found some for mine on Facebook looks more off road

Relocate brackets made from some spare parts I had laying around. Contact only happens at full droop and full turn. So they may not be absolutely necessary.

Quick question on your set up djnice - how tall is your Yukon all in with the lift and tires? I'm basically shooting for your exact setup for my black AT4 but am concerned about getting in my garage. I need to be below 6'8".

Also, when you just had the wheels and tires installed - how bad was the rubbing? Just lock to lock or was it a major issue?

About 6'7". Maybe a little less.

Rubbing is lock to lock, but limits turning radius. Its very annoying. The lift doesn't resolve it. In front of driver side wheel there is a plastic bracket under the liner that needs modified. Mine modified itself by breaking. Both sides behind the wheels the metal bracket frame extension needs modified. I used body shimms to shim the outer bolts by .25" which makes the inside edge give more gap. I would not take these off or get Westcot. Reason is, these look like they protect the cab from wheel intrusion in a crash. I would like to get a fab shop to modify them but haven't had time.

If I had to do this again, I might get Icon coil overs now that they are out. Because you can vary the height and they give more travel.
