I know its a 2wd but I wanna lift my yukon and I dont know what all I would need to do. I really just need to lift the front since its nosediving. Would I need any kind of spacers cause I was going to go with just some 2.5 torsion keys but don't know if I need any thing else.(wanting to clear 33s)

Thanks! Gzes wouldn't a body make the frame more visible, and still nosedive cause the rear is alrady up enough I really need the front lifted only. So do yall think 2.5, the rear is 36.75 and the front is about 34 or so.

crank Your T-bars back up should be fine. if not a " keys, also yes a BL would show the Frame and just lift the body off the frame.

Yea thats what I thought Z, I still wanna get keys cause I looked at the T-bars and they only have about an inch to crank up but it needs about a 2.25 inch. I plan to get the keys and then finish the T-bars.

Alright guys I went to one of my local truck part stores. They told me it would be 400 for lifting the front. They said keys, extentions, etc. are going to run 200 then re allignment at 80 plus tax and labor. Does this seem to be right I mean im really just wanting to put keys in it and allignment (of course) and I can put the keys in just not the extensions. What do yall think?

the extensions are 10x easier than putting in the keys...all you do is unbolt the bottom of the shock, install extension, and reinstall shock
