(PROJECT) Yukon GT

15+ Denalis have a transfer case that’s 4WD and AWD selectable. I can select either. When I said “AWD” in my 1st post, it was to clarify mine is not 2WD.

Much like the AUTO setting on previous model 4wd

Need to add some Hellwig swaybars to your list. The retractable running boards were on my must have list when I bought my 2018. Looking forward to seeing some 1/4 mile times. My son has a 2015 6 speed Yukon Denali & mine is a 2018 10 speed. We are going to take them to the track soon.

That was good dyno numbers but those numbers are only as good as the operator. When I took my 2006 Mustang to the dyno it put down over 200hp more than it should due to a bad setting on the dyno. Corrected setting then got what I was expecting.

Good luck with your build.

It's AUTO on those too. You're right

Nice work OP. It's a solid performer and should serve you well for many years to come. The 6.2 is a beast in stock trim so I can only imagine with with the mods.

Thanks Monte! She corners pretty good since I lowered it but I should check out some bigger sway bars in the future.

Thank you! I’m looking forward to putting some miles on her…

Hellwig bars, front and rear, are the way to go. You can see the installation in my build thread. Makes a very big difference.

I'm kinda building my own Yukon GT. Today I ordered a Bell Tech 2" front drop spindles & rear 3,4" drop kit for my 2018 Yukon Denali. The Hellwig swap bars are on my list but likely a next year project. Will do the 16" brake upgrade when my factory brakes wear down but still look too good at 70K miles so may be awhile.

Best thing I did was lower the truck. Rides so much nicer! The firm ride makes the truck much more responsive. It just feels lighter and more nimble.

Need video of how the exhaust sounds. Nice build!

Thank you! I will do that…
