*PICS* Installing 3/5 Drop on Denali

[BlizzardX23]

Welcome to the Autocraft Center!













Everyone was giving me shit cuz I lowered my front end... so until I get my suspension kit, I put the truck on the lift, got under and cranked the torsions the opposite way...now the front sits higher then the back...it sits about the same as the pics of it lifted lol...

it rides like ******* SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT...HORRIBLE handling, it shakes and jolts and jobs and barks and everything else with the T-Bars cranked..its slower too...I cant TAKE OFF anymore..probably because the AWD system isnt liking the front wheels being so ****** up and jumping up when I hit the gas lol...

Install pics come hopefully 2moro..if my kit gets in!!

OK...Im tracking my kit...its finally here in Lawton..so I'll pick it up this morning..and install it this evening...or at least the back...the place is open from 1PM - 9PM ...I wont get there till about 3...so that leaves me with roughly 5 1/2 hours to get hot on it...More pics to come!

4got shocks too!


Thanks again Tim, I appreciate everything!

I installed the rear kit today...like...3 or 4 hours... but its my first time...if I was to do another rear kit for a yukon, It'd be faster!

Also, a guy that worked there helped A LOT...thanks to him!


buuut...time was running short so I didnt bother with the front yet...I'll do it maybe 2moro?


anyways, the back sat down nice...still looking for lower though..hmmm...


I did NOT remove the D-bushings and slide them inward two inches and drill a second hole like it said to on the instructions...is that a big problem? Also, I didnt put the spacer sleeve in for the passenger side end link for the sway bar..it was angled...but didnt seem like it would cause an issue..any advice?

also....yea yea yea...Ill post pics...but after I got finished, I went to a buddies house and we watched a really scary movie... =( then his garage door going to the house flew open cuz of the wind (all the lights were out also) He and his wife were on one couch, and my and his little girl were on the other...she was hiding under the blankets the whole time...
plus, its storming outside with a lot of lightning...so yea...pics will come 2moro though!

Take out the spring isolators-plastic discs in the spring seats(1/2-3/4 more drop), you need to relocate the swaybar bracket so ig clears the panhard on the passengers side. While u hAve it up there cut ur bumpstop brackets off, you can use a swazall.
