Re: Sway Bars - front only or front and rear

Not knowing what other vehicles you may drive (You may have a new ZO6 ) I recommend putting the big 1 1/4" bar on the front. There will be no regrets about that. And you can do it low buck OEM or go aftermarket easy. Then drive it, if you driving it hard enough to start notice other short comings, come back and look for more answers. There are several great threads in the suspension section on ways to make these trucks work better when pushed hard.

No they are not. My truck tracks great and the ride is great. My truck is driven more than most people on this board. The ride is as good as my 08 Tahoe and in fact I'd rather drive my truck than my Tahoe.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
