i installed the pedders rear springs last night. couldnt be happier with how it looks. rides nice, but definitely firmer than stock. felt great going thru this loop by my house where to interstates meet, but potholes make me cringe. not a good pic, but check it out.

if potholes are that scary and youre not gonna lower it more you should rock some bigger tires when its time to swap those out.. what kit did you use the 2'' or the 3''?

Looks good, weird that in my Pedders kit it rode pretty much like stock over all types of roads, try some shock extenders to get rid of that harshness.

i have the belltech shock extenders. maybe it rides how the nonautoride tahoes ride??? its not a bad ride, but i miss floating over potholes.
when i start the car the compressor runs for about 5 sec. used to run for like 2. im gonna play with the sensors so its riding a little less on air, hopefully i dont end up with the cali lean

Do you think you might be able to snap a couple more pics? Its a little hard to see in the OP.

hard to get a good angle in the garage freezing outside. but this shows the height is perfect. before the compressor kicks in it sits perfectly level when measured, compressor brings it up like 1/4 in, perfect imo. one pic is how it used to look

Nice, Macky!

I have the Belltech rear springs, but I'm pretty sure I do NOT have shock extenders. Can anyone tell me how they mount? Is there cutting and welding involved? I think I'd like to get some -- but, maybe not if it requires cutting and welding.

Thanks!

Macky,

Di you do the work yourself? Your Tahoe look real good dude. I am strongly considering doing that same set up only with Belltech so I can tow.
