Can I lower a 00-06 AWD Denali? I've been searching around here for a while and can't seem to find my answer. I see kits on tbss for 4x4 but not sure if those will work or not. I'm on the road so I've been searching with my phone and it's getting annoying. Thanks in advance.

4/5 on my old 04 AWD Esky

For the front:

3/4 Ton Keys in Front 1" to 3" Lower
Bilstein HD shocks f4-be5-6500-h0
Eibach Sway Bar
McGaughy's 2" Drop Spindles


For the rear:
Airlift Inner Spring Rear Helper Bags
Bilstein HD shocks f4-be5-6501-h0
Belltech 5" Rear Coil Springs
Belltech Rear Shock Extenders
DJM 3/4" Urethane Rear Bump Stops
DJM Free Travel Mod
Eibach Sway Bar


To bypass the factory air suspension, I just disconnected the battery, pulled the RTD (Real Time Dampening) fuse under the hood, and everything works fine.

He really means 24/7 too...

I was totally satisfied with my transactions with him and all the advice he's given me.

415 519 2432 24/7 you can text or call

my 3/5-6 kit you can tow with also all you need is helper bags which are 80 dollars.

a example my buddy has a suburban and he tows his grand national to the street races with 7 of us in his truck was no problem at all. I designed the rear springs so that it is linear not progressive and when you put a helper bag in it the bag actually gets in between the coils and so you can tow much better than with a progressive spring.
