Sounds like you are almost set then, especially if you've already done it once on a s-series.

The only thing is - you may have to rig up a lowering bracket assembly for the oil filter.

Re: looking at doing a 2" body lift....how hard is it?

they vehicles have a high center of gravity as it is, do you really want to increase this even more?

a while back they had roll over ratings (as in which vehicle was the worst for rolling over), and these things were the number 1 rated vehicles

since they roll over so easy, why do you own one?

I'm just stating a fact... I like my envoy, but i hit the brakes when going around curves on the highway...

not a reason to sell it, but definitely something to be aware of... correct?

that' my opinion, and everyone is entitled to their own...

besides to sell it, it's not worth more then $5000, so i'll drive it as long as i can...
