Mannnn...you don't know about rust. After a year of having just the rear of my '99 Sierra stepside higher from the level kit I bought, I finally - three days ago - was able to get my keys and bars out to change to the new keys. Thank God I now have an air compressor and air hammer. Even with that it was a complete PITA. Hours of heat on the keys/control arms and beating it with the air hammer/sledge/you name it. The Midwest is a killer with rust. Your truck looks like it rolled off the assembly line in comparison. Lol Truck looks amazing! Nicely done!!

[@jacobn3160]

I would have used 2” shock extenders on those bilsteins instead of using the rough country shocks

[@BLACKCLOUDFORD]

I did the 3 inch body lift on mine.. It only took me about 3hrs. No headaches, no grinding, and no drilling. Factory smooth suspension. To adjust the level just manipulate the torsion bolts a little or take a leaf out of the rear(I run helper bags for hauling) it sure rides smooth minus the heavy leaf with 15psi in the bags.

[@triggerhappy18gmail]

What brand lift did you use?

[@pedronovales4931]

I have a 97, and did 2 inch in front and 1 3/4 in back, to fit 285/75 R16. It looked amazing. Initially I kept the original wheels, but after a year I bought some Procomp 1069 brushed aluminum 16X8 wheels, with 4.5" backspacing, and it gave a better stance. I also added some side fenders. It also is my Overland vehicle.

Wanted to mention to you, I installed some rough country 2” wheel spacers on my rear tires to widen the rear wheel base to match the front wheel base and it makes a huge difference appearance wise!

[@C25A1guy]

Hey Jimmy, don't get too frustrated over the time it took. I've done a LOT of these kits, and with 2 techs, it takes about a day and a half. Me and my master tech, if we were feeling pretty good and the truck doesn't fight us, probably can punch it out in about 10 hours (totalling about 20 man hours). And that's us, 2 technicians that do this day in/day out, going at it on a lift, with proper professional tools at our disposal along with some of our custom made tools for jobs like these (we have a dedicated differential jack using scrap metal around the shop on a old transmission jack that we fabricated up). You did good for a home gamer, using a lot of basic hand tools, and no professional training trying to figure out instructions that was written by a tech for techs. One thing we do different is that we usually hit the rear first and then work our way forward.

[@1RoadGarage]

Haha. Thanks! I was sort of wondering why it took me so long but i realized that trying to film it also slows the process way down. 👍👍

The front fender openings are taller than the rear (often the case since the front is a steering axle and tires extend outside the fender when turning), so just because your measurement is larger in front doesn't mean that the front sits higher.

[@kcscustom9759]

That’s the fun of installing a lift kit lol they all require some kind of modifications. But that’s the problem with a lot of people they try to cut corners then blame it on the company when things don’t work. However you took your time to make sure everything was actually done right & for that I’m sure you’ll have a great experience. These rough country kits are great, a lot of people hate on them but they’ve actually came a really long ways to their quality now being equal to a lot of kits but, still cheaper. And I think your right about the instructions for these older kits being written a long time ago because if you read through a set of instructions for a newer kit there’s quite a bit more detail and things are just explained a bit better. Anyways you did a great job with everything considering. Can’t wait to see this thing lookin proper with some new tires on it!

I put this exact same kit on my 96 suburban, I actually did not like that the truck sits perfectly level. Now when I put a few bags of dirt in the back or hook my trailer up it will immediately sag.

[@KendrasEdge757]

Going 3” in the front and 2” in the rear IS NOT a “lift kit”, it’s a ‘LEVELING KIT’ just to clarify. That LEVELS the truck so it doesn’t have anymore rake from the factory. Also, your hight will settle over time. Give it a few weeks for the shocks to break in and the hight will drop some.

[@TheOkieDude]

[@farmboy6129]

Good video but you could have just bought the blocks and crank the stock keys up and get longer shocks I raised my front end up 3 inches juts by cranking the stock keys and that’s all I did and it worked great ride was a little more rough but saved a lot of money and time.

Still nice vid.

[@Snoophouse66]

Hey jimmy! I know you installed this a long time ago so not sure if you’ll see this or even care! But just so you know, the front fenderwels on 90’s Chevys sit about 2 inches taller then the rear! If you look where the front fender is equal to the door handles compared to the rear fender you can see what I’m talking about. So technically by having it only “slight taller” you’re actually over an inch lower in the front! The hopping is most likely due to bad alignment and the unnecessary shock extenders!

[@jamestaylor1078]

It looks good, your hard work paid off. Those lifting blocks are shorter on the one side to shim the rear axle which helps with your pinion/ driveline angle.

[@tysoncurrie7745]

The lift still looks good with the stock rims and tires. I would still drive it like that without bigger tires, but yeah bigger tires would probably be best and it will raise it a tad more. Great video, you make me want to do it to my 2004 suburban.

[@FabiusMaximus1000]

You did alright. When I replaced my front diff it took me 2 days. Even though it was the same diff it didn't fit the same as the old one.

[@jamphil0395]

Just food for though.... with a bigger tire your gearing will be higher.... (3.73 w/35’s will probably be around 3.42.) so basically your low end torque/off the line take off will suffer some, but the top end speed will increase. You might want too consider a gear swap for your diff’s! Also the gear swap needs too be the same for front and rear. If you go this route I highly suggest looking into NITRO GEAR sets and probably go to 4.30ish... hope this helps with your overland build!! Btw, great videos!

[@walterk1221]

It is good that you used restraint in grinding off the "cooling fins" as I believe they are actually reinforcing gussets. Taking the minimum amount of material was wise.

[@x-man5056]

When your vehicle is up in the air with all the weight off it, your shock should be at or near max extension not mostly or even half compressed. It's not even clear that the shock is not to long for your application but as is, the shock extender bracket you bolted onto your lower A arm needs to go for certain. You need more compression length in front. There is no certainty the top of the wheel wells are of equal height front to back from factory. You took your measurements before you tore down and those are good reference points but it cannot be said with certainty that because you have 38'' in front and 37" in back at the top of the wheel opening you are therefore an inch lower in back. It is likely the factory height of the front wheel opening is higher for tire clearance when turning and hitting a large bump at the same time were as the rear wheels never turn laterally like the fronts so the extra clearance isn't needed. There is also more weight up front. You got the stance you wanted and that is the important thing. Looks good Jimmy, trial by fire and you did well. Cheers.

[@JCSRunur]

Can you explain why my K1500 has looked “ass down” from the day I drove it home in 93? It just didn’t look normal to me. Should I balance this out with a kit?

[@x-man5056]

@@JCSRunur Your rear springs may be slightly sprung from an overload. If your Suburban has torsion bar front springs you may be able to simply lower the front slightly. Find a very level pad and take careful measurements. Make sure your tires are all properly inflated before you start, gas tank is full and there is no other load in the vehicle. It could be just perception or maybe where you park and notice this front high look is not actually level. Make sure to document all your measurements well for careful evaluation and make sure you measure from center axle to bottom of the top of the wheel well on all four wheels to be sure the front high perception is not caused by different height wheel well openings. If you do end up getting a lift kit, don't get crazy, stay with the lowest lift you can get. Lift kits change handling characteristics in several ways. Since you've had the vehicle since 93 you likely don't need any lift but it is a good way to get a level ride height..."generally". If you are not of mind or skill to do all this, find a good shop that can accurately make the Measurements for you and maybe install a kit or take other remedial actions that they may recommend. I had 3, K5 Blazers and all of them came from the factory with slight nose high attitudes but they were all strait front axle trucks. Good Luck Jack.

[@nathancarlisle2801]

The front wheel Arch is larger than the rear, meaning from the ground to the arch is higher in the front from the factory.

[@190amg7]

Chances are that your variance in the instructions for the 88-91 vs 92+ shock mount images have to do with your truck being a suburban. In fact, the 88 & 89 suburbans are still square body trucks. It wouldn't surprise me if they didn't make that update on the gmt400 suburbans)

You are amazing and genius You have shown GMC beautiful and wonderful congratulations, aster man in your creativity👍

[@spelunkerd]

The unifying conclusion seen in lifting videos is how much effort it is. My impression of lifted vehicles is that they steer and brake strangely. They have a higher rollover risk, and moving parts tend to wear out, and you'll have more difficulty finding a parkade to accommodate the height. I don't know about resale value, I guess the buyers market is a narrow field. In the end, it doesn't seem like you gain much clearance under the vehicle, since the lowest point, the axles, aren't lifted at all. Even so, your truck looks great, and you've done another good video!

[@cardboardkiller6883]

1st: THANK YOU for taking the time to make this video! I'm getting ready to do the same lift but Skyjacker brand on my 97 Z71 EC. I'm gonna grind the cooling fins down on the front differential off top in the hopes that it will save me from pulling the diff in & out as many times as you had to to figure that out. I've read that a lot of guys have had issues with the A-arms longevity & seals blowing on the shocks on the RCX 2-3 lift kits. That is why I'm going with a Skyjacker 2"-3" lift kit and I'm gonna run some rancho shocks because they are cheap & proven. How has your experience been with the shocks & A-arms supplied with the RCX kit, I really wanted to like RCX but between my research & talking to offroad shop owners, I have decided to steer clear of RCX all together. I know for certain that their OBS 6" lift kits are straight up abominations....

enjoyed the video not as indepth are your normal standard videos. but im still a fanboy. Was disappointed in rough country for expecting the average build guy to have to grind, cut, and drill that many mods especially if you have high end diffs that you dont want getting grinded on seems a little much for a 629$ lift kit. But in the end if your happy im happy. nice video cheers!
