3/4 Ton Lift Springs

[Vortec Lover]

So it is bad off road? What does the stiffness feel like?

don't be too scared- a lot of people off road with 3/4 tons trucks. A wider stance will take away from your ride quality too, but some things are worth it

Oh I'm not scared haha Mine was done till I was about to finish and found out my U bolts werent long enough. But I ordered those bad boys and will redo it on Saturday

Ive been offroading and havent really noticed a difference. Now it did feel stiff when i first put them on but i got used to the ride

i had an odd thought, are the leaf springs the same length on a yukon as a truck?

Thats what I figured I will get used to it haha

I am pretty sure they are. The SUVs at the junkyard had the exact same leaf springs set up that I do on my truck

To double check, measure from eye hole to axle hole on both sides. I measured the springs before I put them on the truck

From what I have been researching NO they are different for Burbans, hoes, and pickups.

ive understood that too. i recall some guy using ord drop shackles on rear aand had to drill new holes so i assumed that the leafs are likely a different length as well. even then theres no need for heavier leafs on a 2 door yukon i cant tow much anyways.

Kyle, I know I chatted with you on FB about the 3/4s going in, but what was your final opinion on the install? How easy, how much lift did you get, and how is the ride?

This is the setup I have in the rear now, but wanting to beef it up some more to haul.

In all honesty I really didnt notice much difference in ride quality if anything at all and the install was pretty easy. It took me and my dad afternoon to do them. Even without the helper spring it looks like your regular leaf pack has one more than mine! The bigger leaf pack gave me about 2 1/2 inches of lift in the back. Just be careful to take ALL the tension off them or they will shoot out and can be very dangerous!

This was right after they were installed and I was at about 4 1/2 inches up front
