What made you remove the bags? How has the ride quality changed?

I pulled the 'slam' and wheels for a mild drop and stock 17s. It sits at 2/3 now and rides/handles similarly to before. I had no complaints about the drop before, just needed the couple of grand I had tied up in it for other things...

I have a Duraurb and I don't think the 1/2 ton models can handle the power. Just my opinion. If you saw my 3/4 ton twist when I hammer on it you would understand. I don't even have twin turbos and my truck is stupid fast.

Nice truck gringoloco, I have seen it around town.

Re: Daily Driven (not-so-stock) '05 Yukon

Thread from the dead lol. Its a nice looking truck tho! I picked up an AutoRide Yukon which looks pretty much like your before picture hehe.

I also wanted to go LED tails, and swap for a latemodel truck wheel (tho I had my eyes on a different set).

Re: Daily Driven (not-so-stock) '05 Yukon

Yeah, I sold this like 4 years ago. Probably one of the better vehicles I've ever had.
