I did a 2/3 key/coil kit first. At first I liked it, but after a while I wasn't a fan of the front. The suspension just felt loose and sloppy in general. The rear wasn't bad, but could have been better if I had done the free travel mod. If I had to do over again, I definitely would have done spindles first.

Currently I'm running a 4/5.5 advertised drop kit with keys/spindles/reloc kit/TB springs and new bilstein HDs all around. I like it. It rides much better than the 2/3 did and it sits lower, so win-win for me.

Thanks Alex33. I need some input too robstor so I hope some more people in the know will post up. For me personally, I'm looking for a kit that will give me a uniform wheel-well all the way around. It seems to me that a 2/3 would accomplish this. Also, I don't want to be real low - I just want a level uniform look. I'm leaning towards a Belltech stage 2 or stage 3 right now. Maybe 2/3 or 3/4?

@ Norcal SS and Alex33....If you do a 2" spring in the back, would it level the truck? if yes does it matter which brand you use? or do I have to use the 2/3 drop to level the Yukon...also Norcal SS can you post if you have any pics of a SUV with the 2/3 drop? thanks to all for your help...

A 2" spring will level the truck. I would get with NorcalSS on what brand rides best. I tend to believe that Belltech would ride the best though.
