Lifted/Leveled 2021 - Postem Up

[R32driver]

I personally don't feel a lifted denali with aggressive tires looks any less offroad capable than an at4 with aggressive tires. A different front facia and some tow hooks doesn't magically make an at4 some offroad beast. It's all about the look and most these rigs will never see much more offroad action than a grass field at the county fair

No it certainly doesn’t make it an off-road beast, but more tire and less bodywork hanging low are a step in the right direction.

Hello DW, looks great this way in addition to newer set up you did. Did this tire and wheel size fit with no fender trim needed with only the front 1" level kit? I'm trying to decide on a lift for 22" wheels with a meaty tire. I would be happy with your first set up. My older circle of friends may have a hard time if I get to aggressive with the lift. Thanks

No trimming with the earlier set up.

Hi, my suburban was built last week and is currently in transit. It’s an RST with magnetic ride. Im really wanting to lift it a couple inches. Talked to Rough Country and my local 4 Wheel Parts and both say that the rough country 2” will work with magnetic ride. I find it hard to believe and don’t want to find out the hard way. Can anyone confirm that the RC 2” kit can work with magnetic ride? Would I need a bracket to drop down that little sensor strut deal that the magnetic rides have? Thanks for any guidance!

One more question please. If you go to 22"s from the stock 20" on the Z71, do you have to use lower rubber so the speedo and milage line up with stock? Or is there a way around that issue. Because you have 22"s but your rubber still looks as tall as the rubber on the stock 20" wheels.

those tires were 33.5 and stock is 33”. Speedo will be slightly off.

I leveled my wifes high country with magnetic ride with nothing but strut spacers. I looked all around for ride height sensors but couldnt find any. I remember extending them on her ‘16 denali, but i dont think the new mrc system utilizes ride height sensors at all.

Ok awesome, so no issues with what you did? Are you talking about strut spacers as in the hockey puck type deal up top or the bottom U shaped things that go on the lower control arm?

Lower mount.
