Ok here's a pic. I checked the measurements and the final results are a 1.25" drop in the rear. Measured from the bottom of the wheel arch to the ground the front is 36.5" and the rear is 36.75".IMG_0244.JPG

Looks really good. It appears the 2021 models have less rake. Why are the 2015-20's so jacked up in the rear?

Gm used different spring rates plus bigger insulators. That's why I have to have customers measure before getting rear kit from me

Perfection right there! That is exactly what I wanted to do to my wifes xl, but instead had to lift the front. Ya win some and ya loose some lol.

Agree, they dont look like they need a leveling kit at all from what I have seen.

I never understood why they had so much rake in the last gen’s. Since there is air assist, it just makes no sense at all.

That looks so much better. Any ride issues?

It seems a little too "mushy or soft" over stock but it's not bad. I realize it but the wife hasn't said a thing and she drives it more.

Trying to get a full kit from Tony but it seems his site is down right now
