Model Reviewed:
GMC Envoy SLT
Strength:
MORE comfortable ride than stock, better handling and better appearance since it's lowered.
Weakness:
NONE!! Unless you consider going from the typical "floaty" American car ride, to a tight, more controlled "European" ride (VERY much like my '95 BMW 325i) as a weakness! I changed my stock springs AND my sway bars to Eibachs Pro-Truck and Anti-Roll Bars. I ALSO changed my stock shocks to Bilstein Heavy-Duty's, and my stock stabilizer links (aka sway bar links) to Moog's. I wanted to lose some of the fender gap without sacrificing ride comfort. Eibachs fit the bill PERFECTLY! They dropped my truck approximately 2" in the front and rear. The truck now rides MUCH BETTER than before! I live in New York City where there are TONS of potholes and bad roads, and the Eibachs, Bilsteins, and Moogs soak them up VERY well. If you change the anti-roll/sway bars as I did, MAKE SURE to change the stabilizer/sway bar LINKS as well, in addition to an alignment. With the stock suspension when you hit a bump the truck would bounce/float 2-3 times; this is very typical of GMC trucks, Cadillac Escalades, etc... and I considered it very unsettling. With the Eibachs, Bilsteins, and Moogs the truck hits a bump and keeps on going, JUST like a European sedan! I'd HIGHLY recommend Eibach springs and anti-roll kits to ANYONE!
