I am a new member to the forum. This is my first post. I just took delivery of my 07 Z71 4x4 Suburban. I researched the leveling kits that are available on the market. Most manufacturers offer 2" or 2.5" kits. I jacked up my front end 2 inches and it put the front of my truck higher than the rear (which I do not want). I found ReadyLift manufacters a 1.5" leveling kit which I think will truly level my truck and eliminate the front droop. Also the good thing about this kit is that the bolts on the top hat (a component ofthe stock suspension)do not have to be cut; therefore, if you ever want or need to put the truck back to stock, all you have to do is remove the spacers. Otherwise you have to purchase the top hat for each side. I ordered the kit online from StylinConcepts.com on Wed. night, got it on Fri.,and I am having it installed on Monday. I'll let you guys know how it goes if you care to know.

I'm going to install the Rancho Quick Lift in a couple of weeks. It says thatyou can get up to 2 1/2" lift out of it. I hope so since the front droop on my 4x4 LT3 is about 2 1/4". Wndering if anyone has tried 305/50/20's or bigger on this gen Tahoe... with a leveling kit installed.

sailfisherI too would very much like to know how the Readylift leveling kit works out. I am actually looking at that for my 2008 Tahoe. Please post any pictures you may have after you get it done.
