How do I level a awd denali

[No Rush]

Hello everyone,
I am having a change of heart with my lowering kit. I installed it about 2 years ago, love the way it looks, but the roads around here are really starting to wear on me and my 2004 YD.

I am thinking about installing a levelng kit on it but I have no clue on where to begin.
Does anyone make a kit for a YD with all of the stock suspension goodies?
Do I have to piece one together, like I have seen in a couple of the other threads?
Should I just remove all of the stabilitrac/autoride leveling system and go with regular shock to do this?

Any help would be great?

I have foun this leveling kit... Does anyone know I it will work with all wheel drive? It says 4wd in the description so I would assume yes...

If I change out the stock shock system, does anyone know the part number for the Bilstein shocks that I would need to use with the leveling kit?

Does anyone have any input for this?

Yes I have been reading the other threads, the information is scattered everywhere and it is hard to try and piece it all together.
And I can't send private messages to ask about the Bilstein 5100 shocks that people have used.

Thanks in advance.

Did you end up getting that kit? I wish someone else had some kinda input. I'm looking to do the same to my YD.

Hope you the best, keep us updated please.

Hello,
Yes, I bought the readylift kit and the bilstein shocks about 2 week ago. The rear shocks are on back order until the end of this month. Everything is sitting in the garage until I can get out to my friends house and use his lift.
My stock denali wheels are getting plasti dipped right now and I have 295/70/17 toyo mt's sitting at the tire shop waiting too!

That's excellent! I've been reading about the plasti dip too. I almost wanted to get a whole car dip. Be sure to post up pics of everything and maybe a DIY write up on that kit? I'll eventually be ordering one myself.

I'll try to take as many pictures as I can.

Before I do anything, I have to remove the lowering kit and all of the air ride stuff. And I will sell it somewhere. Then I will put the new stuff on!

Looking forward to seeing it.

Are you replacing the rear shocks as well?

 

[No Rush]

Yes, all of the shocks are getting replaced with bilstein's, even though I put the Monroe replacements on a little over a year ago... Oh well

We'll I haven't been able to install the leveling kit yet, but... I did finish getting my wheels plasti dipped and my toyo's mounted.
To bad they don't fit yet!
