Everythings possible with the right amount of money and a good fabricator. front and rear?

For the rims, you just have to worry about your backspacing as it can hit the lips of the fenders and such, deff have to tub out the rear and take off the inner front fenders..

standard 2wd 1500 pickup front brackets, spindles, custom a arms notch the frame for tie rods should do the front. the rear will be all custom. check out streetsource.com. search owner profiles. there are alot of builds with pics.

Are you just bagging it or laying it out? Just bagging it wont be hard, but the lay it out is a lot of work.

airride technologies used to make a kit for the back. its not on the site anymore but if you called them they might find on for you. it was an all bolt in 4link kit.

Mine is just bagged, for now.
Mine is a NNBS but heres what I have.

Front
Dropped spindles
Strut bags
Belltech adjustable struts

Rear
Contitect bags (where the springs were)
Belltech shocks

Steelbraided airlines
AVS box
Viair 480 compressors
Two 3 gallon tanks
Asco valves

Pretty simple. I paid $4400 cash for parts, powdercoat and installation.

If you can fabricate then thats 60 percent of the battle. Rest is balls and money. Def look into rolling your fenders for tire clearence. Keep us posted. Check out Fullsizechevy.com alot of guys bagged and laying frame are on there! GL!

Im looking to do the same with my yukon 2 door. Im wondering if i get a setup that runs about an inch higher than stock all around fully inflated and as low as i can from there while still being able to utilize my factory 4x4 system. im running 305/35r24 tires with an 1.5" offset spacers in the back. Im not in a rush to get this done but id definatly wanna take a run at it this winter if i can get enough info and money lined up. Any info would be appreciated!!
