3inch rear drop not lowering! do i have to change shocks?

[kenTAT2]

Hey guys i have an 03 yukon on 26s and i just put my drop springs on. It seems like it only dropped an inch or so. Its a beltech drop and i dont want to do the front yet if the back isnt going to drop more. Is it my shocks not letting it drop more or is that all it goes? I will try to post a pic tomorrow..any thoughts would help

Yes it's the shocks, but you can get shock extenders to solve your problem.

Boy, Nathan is just all over these forums nowadays.

Ken, I suspect Nathan is correct. To verify, unbolt the shocks and see where the truck sits. If that confirms the shocks as the issue, a pair of extenders or shorter shocks will resolve the issue.

easy way is to jack up the body of the truck from the middle, like on your hitch. Remove the bolt on the bottom of each of the rear shocks. Pull the bottom of the shock towards the rear, then lower the truck back down.

Belltech shock extension part# is 6651, hit up tony on here if you need em. Also, does your yukon have autoride? If so you may need shorter sensor links.

Another excellent point that I forgot about
