Welcome to the forum.

The aftermarket has kits including just springs to drop spindles, shocks, and springs. Just have to make sure they come w/ the links for the Autoride sensors.

What would happen if there are no links for the autoride sensors?

Default Ltz

You will get lots of errors on the DIC...

the LTZ's auto ride, (from what i've read) is not much fun to lift, or lower... but that doesn't mean it can't be done...

I think you have to adjust the link length so the sensor doesn't think you've loaded the truck and order the compressor to raise the truck back up. So if you lower an inch, you'd shorten the link by an inch.
