looking to lower my 03 denali.....no more than 1-1.5" in front and no more than 2" in the back....can i do this with just turning the factory torsion keys up front and shock relocating/extension brackets in the rear? not looking to go crazy lowering it cause its my tow vehicle and im pretty satified with the ride....just wanna get it down some.....havent made up my mind on wheel size yet....20" 275/55's or 22" 305/40...thanx for any help....

no problem
on the kit
Front keys
rear belltech kit for autoride with spacer
rear shock extenders for autoride shocks.
$340 shipped and you can tow and everything like that.

Truck will lower about 2-2.25 inches at highest setting and you can go 1 inch with the keys no problem. If you wanted full 2 inches I would say spindles

I have the 2-3/4 belltech kit on my Denali. Auto ride works perfect and I'm on 22's. I'm not running the rear spacer either

saw some pics of 2/3 dropped denali's and they look great....im set on going that route....my stock heights are front 35" and rear 37".....i should be fine with the 2/3 drop both towing and ride comfort....besides im looking into 4 new shocks from arnott or maybe the converted bilsteins they sell to put in when i lower it....saw people split between the mcguaghy's deluxe 2/3 kit for air ride and the beltech 2/3 kit for air ride.....although some complained about the harshness of the mcgaughy's springs.....i really appreciate your time and would like to see what you have in that drop....


mharders your truck looks sick....
