What is this, and why is it on the floor?? ( '05 Yukon)

[Fless]

Not to be nit-picky, but isn’t the spec touching, or within 1/4” or something? Pretty sure mine are just about 3/16” away, while sitting level. Hoping that’s ok, or I’ll have to get slightly larger spacers.. (these pics are while in the air)

You'd better fix that...

Seriously, though, I'm not sure of the spec. All I know is that they contact on stock suspensions.

In your photo, it shows a red lower pad... Mine is just the metal surface, ( with the upper stop against it)

I added those to make up the difference, after leveling the front.

Did you raise the front on yours, to need the extra 'bump' ?

Yes, just cranked the torsion keys, and installed 2” longer Bilsteins. She rides great! May also help that there’s a fat Hellwig sway bar up there..

if I still lived in Kalifornia, I would be driving on hilly & twisty roads. But, here in S. Florida, the only 'hill' is a freeway overpass. So, my '05 seems fine.
Years ago, I had a 1970 GTO, bought in '73..... I had the suspension modified and it handled almost like a Trans Am race car.
This Yukon is sort of a 'beast'..... But it seems fine....
