Lowered 04 Denali

[Goliath23]

Does anyone have recommendations on lowering shocks? I have a pretty extreme drop and only see them for 2 to 3 inch drops.

What type of drop parts did you use?

Front
Spindles, torsion keys?

Back
Springs w or wo shock extenders

Front i went drop spindles so less stress on the bushings and suspension and rear has lowering springs with all the relocation brackets and adjustable pan hard bar.

Since you used the spindles on the from any good aftermarket shock will work. The suspension geometry did not change. For the rear, if you add the shock extenders you can use any aftermarket shock aswell.

Pay attention to the extended length measurement of the new shock. At full droop you want to keep your springs still snug in their perches. On my 07 I think I went with a 19” with the 2” drop brackets with my 5” springs and it was perfect.
