Leveled Yukon's

[GAW10]

alright just wanted to say that this is a great forum...i started out on the other yukon and tahoe forum and was very disappointed until i found this site!
now i am looking for pictures of leveled yukons either front only or the front and rear truxxx kit. also my yukon is a denali so i was also wondering what yalls experience has been as far as changes in handling and ride comfort with the AWD system. i have found a few various pictures but they have all been 4" lift which is a little much for what i need so any input would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome along!!
Dude are you relly tryin to lift a Denali??
I say you level it by briging the front up 2-3" up front with the Pedders coil s;ring kit or any other level company, alot are over at www.4wheelonline.com
Remember actual coils ride better than spacers, so thats why I suggest Pedders.

 

[Mr. B]

If you use spacers, you retain the factory ride. Why would coils ride better than spacers?

alright just wanted to post the best pic of a front leveled yukon i have found...
also what tires are people running on leveled yukons? i currently have 305/50R20 on stock ride height i was thinking about 325/60R20...
also i wanted to throw another quick question in here. for the people that are buying aftermarket L.E.D. taillights like these
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2008...d60&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245&_trkparms=65:2|39:1
have you had any problems with them that i should know about or is there a better place to buy them that is just as cheap?

No coils don't retain the factory ride becuase the coils have to be compressed more than normal to make them fit. Ihave plenty of friends with spacers and they acknowedge the ride got a bit rougher, the platics spacers do ride better than the aluminum ones.
Actual coils are better and around the same price so you might as well.....

Also I can't help you with leveled Yukons as barely anyone from 07-Up has them on here! I can tell you after leveling you will clear 33" tires, if you want t clear 35" or 37" tires you need an actual lift kit from Rancho, Bulletproof or maybe Cognito )all pretty expensive).
I do know about LED tails as I have the same ones you posted just in theBermuda Black color, they are tite and you found a better price than I did on them!

thanks for the help Nnaboy...good info on the taillights, and i dont want to run anything bigger than a 33" but i just wanted to make it sit flatter and have a tire that will fill up the massive wheel well a little better.

Yeah then I recommend a leveling kit like you want with some Nitto TG's.
But I don't think the actual Pedders coils will clear 33" tires so I guess I would recommend the Daystar leveling kit over here: http://4wheelonline.com/Products.aspx?CategoryId=63056&ProductID=154775

I do not have a Yukon, but on my Hoe I have the CCM 2.5" spacer, and have a 1" coil spacer in the back...clears 305/55-20's with a little trimming..fills the wheelwells nicely and has not changed the ride...if anything it got a tad better as the sidewall is taller now.

There is a denali xl over by me that I believe was leveled I can try to get pics for you if you want.
