Welcome. . If you don't run a spacer you will probably have better clearance results and not destroy wheel bearings every 4months. So far so good.

Thanks bud she is coming together slowly, I had rolled the thought of spacers around but decided I can't do that with out more lift. And I keep hearing people talking about how quickly the bearings go with big heavy wheels and spacers. I am not up for replacing bearing every 4 months

Yeah that's a lot of negative offset on a 12" wheel! [emoji41]

Oh yeah she is a little wide :licklips:, when I got my alignment yesterday I finally got to see the truck driving away and coming at me and down the road, I was really happy with how it looked. Plus like jdpber was saying and like I kept hearing stay away from spacers with heavy wheel/tire combos.

Thanks for the great welcome to the forum guys, I read a ton of stuff on here when I found out I was getting the suburban and a bunch of the info helped me in my decision.

Some lock to lock clearance pictures would be nice.

Also why did you not simply 45* smooth trim the plastic lower valence like everyone else does? Will look much better reinstalled.

Just posted clearance pics in this thread, will probably put them in my build log for reference later. http://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=72923

Didn't cut it b/c lifting it as soon as $$ get right and going to color match and put it back on. Entire HVAC unit went out in my house so there went the $$ I had saved for the lift. Right now I am in the process of moving my girl in so waiting till we get squared away and then going to get back to saving for the lift. Should have it by end of the year I hope.
