My 2013 Yukon XL 2wd has aftermarket 2" drop rear coils on it. The truck sits pretty level like this, but it sucks for towing. I want to put new rear coils in it. What springs should I go with? I fine with it rising the rear back up to stock. Just don't want lifted rear springs.

Do you have the automatic level rear air shocks, RPO code Z55 I think?

Looks like you have the ZW7 premium smooth ride (nivomat) shocks. I have the same on my 2001 and I have the Airlift 1000 bags in my springs. Kept at 10psi when not towing and inflate to about 30-35psi when towing. I drilled a small hole on the 7 pin plug bracket on the receiver to mount the inflation valve. Hardest part was getting the bag inside the spring. They've been on my 2001 since 2007

I don't think the ZW7 on a 2013 has Nivomats. Thought the Nivomat use ended with NNBS. (?)
