I just purchased an 05 yukon and the first thing i want to do is lower it. Not slammed but i guess 2/3 would be good for me. That seems to be about the most common. Well i didn't know anything about the autoride when i bought it but i've seen read around and tried to learn as much as possible but i keep reading different things and still am in the dark so i hope you guys will help a newb out.

1. Is there anything different about the front suspension on the autoride trucks? It seems that i've gathered that i'll need new spindles, is this true? Some kits that claim to be "complete" however don't come with spindles, just looks like the torsion keys or whatever.
2. Do they make new "sensor arms" for the rear or is bending them the only option? I'd really rather not bend them if they can be replaced.
3. Is there really an etire "kit" out there anywhere for us autoride guys to order? If so a link would be huge.

Is there a kit like this for my truck? $300 seems like a steal, although i suppose this is a person selling that.

I did gather from one post these part numbers (Belltech 2509,Belltech 23323,Belltech 665) but i'm still worried about bending that arm, i'd rather replace it.

Thanks guys, i know this topic has been beat to death but thats almost why i can't find anything there is SOOO much info i don'tk now which one to go with.

welcome, look at the Eibach 2/3 kit. Comes with torsion keys for the 2" up front, and 3" coils in rear. Then you will use the actual pins that come in the kit, that 'tricks' the autoride.

I feel you Jmyler, I've read posts over and over. There's a lot of pros and cons, yes and no's, right and wrongs. So I just bought one (3/5) and rolled with it. I'll let you know how it goes. Only had it on 3 days but it looks awesome.
