Lift Spindles installed!!

[Burb!!]

I just installed some 3 inch lift spindles and rear spacers with shock extenders. I already had a 2.5/1.5 inch levelling kit and 3 inch body lift. I have a little squat in the rear (Cali lean, if you will), I think it's about a 1" difference from the front...dont mind it at all though. Ground to fender height is; front-45. 5", rear-44.5". And the autoride is not acting up either, hope it stays that way.

Did you take out the leveling kit to add the spindle and spacer? or do you have them all stacked together along with the body lift? Look nice!

Love the look of a lifted Burb!

It's stacked with the 2.5 spacer but I am switching it to a 1.5 spacer to get rid of the "Cali lean" a little bit.

How tall of a rear spacer? and where did you get the shock extenders?
What size tires? and what width/offset wheels?

I am trying to figure out how to fit a 33x12.50 or 305/55r20 with a wider/low offset wheel. possibly 20x10 -12 or 20x9 -12 I am not sure the 2.5 kit will be enough? the 3" spindle may be close? but spindle and 1" spacer may be just right? and possibly a 2" spacer in the rear?

Rear spacer is 3 inches and the shock extenders came with the spacers, bought them from eBay. Tires are 285/70/17 M/Ts. I also have a body lift. I think your tires should fit if you do the spindle and 1 inch.

Im lookin at lifting my 03 escalade esv this spring. Wanna do a 3" lift with 33"s and 20x12 -44 offset. Anyone know how bad this will rub im ok with cuttin the front bumper a bit, also what would you use for the lift. I still have the factory air suspension on it and would like to keep it. Any thoughts on what to purchase? Thanks

3 inch lift with 33" will work but the -44 offset won't let you turn your car at all...I had to lift my truck atleast 5 inches for my -12 offset, 9" wheels offset wheels to work. I had to trim alot when I just had the 3 inch body lift and levelling kit...It's the negative offset that kills you, IMO. I currently have 3 inch spindles, 1.5 inch leveling kit and 3 inch BL and the autoride still works.
