Hey guys, I just installed the McGaughey's 2/3 spring only kit on my 2007 Tahoe (non-autoride) and the ride quality sucks. Does anyone else have this kit? The front seems to be pretty bouncy and bumps feel somewhat harsh. The rear seems fine, but I'm really debating about swapping it for the Eibach kit or just yanking the spring altogether and going for the spindle set up. Any feedback out there from those with this set up? Thanks.

Yeah it's similar to the Eibach set-up. I'll probably try and pick up a spindle set soon because the ride quality just isn't there.

I had the 2/3 spring kit and it totally sucked. I upgraded to the spindles in the front and now it rides like factory. Deffinately upgrade to the spindles, it's the only way to go.
