PM Max, he may have soem Ford keys.

IMHO, they are all pretty close, just don't buy some cheap-os just to save a buck.

I know I'm a new guy on this forum, but the 1999 2wd Tahoe/Yukon doesn't have suspension keys...the front drop would be with coils and/or spindles. If you're looking to:
  • maintain factory ride quality and/or keep your current shocks - use 2" drop spindles.
  • enhance handling, go with 2" springs - would suggest Eibach or Hotchkis from a performance and drop standpoint.
  • level things out with a mild drop and keep a nice ride, I'd suggest going with 3/2 drop (2" spindles and a 1" coil drop up front and 2" shackles for the rear).

ive done tons of these trucks

How about 3.5 inch lowering leafs makes it much easier?

the shackles you can use they are all the same that will lower it 2 inches.

just give me that info and i can steer you from there.
