Chirojh Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 (edited) Looking to purchase a 2020 Denali 2500 4x4. Asked the dealer about leveling the truck and was basically told no because of the ARC. Was told they had installed 2 and customers hated them because of the ride. Curious what anyone here’s experience has been. Love the Denali but that’s a deal breaker for me if I can’t level it and get a decent ride. Any info is highly appreciated.

doozer78 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Also you need to buy the specific kit that goes with arcSent from my SM-A705U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chirojh Posted September 20, 2020 Author Share Posted September 20, 2020 I have not been able to find a specific level kit for the 2020 Denali 2500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doozer78 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I have not been able to find a specific level kit for the 2020 Denali 2500So none of the 2020 denali HD trucks have ARC it has been removed for the model year so just about any kit out there will work. Your dealer doesn't know what they are talking about though. There are numerous kits to choose fromSent from my SM-A705U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the trucks they leveled maxed out the travel of the upper control arms, of course they probably rode like sh*t. I think the key to leveling these trucks and maintaining a decent ride is to find a reputable kit that includes new UCA's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like gSwift said, the key to the ride quality is changing the UCA’s as well. I went with McGaughy’s, but also considered the Cognito kit. Both have UCA options.

2011Chevy Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 My 2020 2500 is leveled with a 1.5in block in rear, new bilstein 5100’s all the way around. It rides excellent, better than a stock truck. The kit I installed includes new upper control arms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
