Its the 002 and dark gray label. Modded I'm done answering any questions you ask of me. Blast me away all you want. You keep ripping and ripping on me especially the whole snap ring thing you just went off on me for no reason. I've tried to help this community in anyway I can even if they don't buy stuff from me im here 24/7 to help them anyway I can which many have called me.


Here you can read up on maxs post on the new 4230 springs I told him about will answer your question fully. I'm sorry you didn't get the drop you wanted modded but I posted up pics of other guys with the same set up and measurements for reference I don't know what to say anymore. Even he got more drop over 5305 and much better ride.

and this applies to the 07 up also once again sorry your so upset at me modded but max is also a respected suspension guy here.

Blazed glad you got the suspension worked out to your liking wish you the best of luck on your rig and wont be posting in your thread anymore so you can get it back on track.

Funny you bring up Max and link his post instead of the whole thread.
Post number 32 on this page you say the 4230s give another one inch worth of drop on these SUVs:

Post number 45 below you say the DJM TB coils sit lower and ride better than the Belltech 5305s:

Then in Post 50, member Bub relizes that for some reason, his rear has to settle 1.5" to reach the advertised 5.25" minimal drop you posted for the DJM TB coils.

Post 54 and 56 here shows bub still wondering why he has only got 3.5" worth of drop with the TB DJM coils while Tony says that "different SUVs come with different coils" lol.

Post 63 here, Tony says the "new" 4230s will ride better than old ones and drop these SUVs down more.
http://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24866&page=7

Post 36 here Max confirms his "new" 4230s are the exact same height as his "old" 4230s. Tony's statement above has been completely discredited.
Also, throughout the whole thread Max states that the 5305s are the best riding coils he has tried. He says the old 4230s dropped him another inch over the 5305s, but that is not the case in my setup and I have everything he has.

He is running 5100s if you mean extenders then no he's not. But he is running rear hardware kit.

Honestly, I was not ever surprised when I noticed no difference. What caught me off guard was the height increase by 1/4".
The main reason why I held out on the 4230s until now (have known about them for over two years) is because I did not trust the fact it was really as low as it was advertised. Mainly because the cars they were on did not look any lower than mine. I decided to try it and just wasted time.
