Hey, Everyone; long-time lurker and first-time poster here. This site is a phenomenal resource, and thank you in advance to anyone who can help me out here.
My 2017 Sierra Denali 1500 (pictured here) is my favorite truck I have ever owned. I had a 2.5-inch leveling kit with 33s installed at 4WP in 2021. Everything was great for around nine months, and then the stock shocks started to go.
Last August, I, like many others, made the mistake of going cheap and replacing the stock suspension and leveling kit from 4WP with a 2.5 RC suspension lift and magneride delete kit. HUGE REGRET. It's absolutely pathetic how rough the ride is, and the weight distribution when braking and cornering is a liability, in my opinion.
Needless to say, I need some guidance on my options for a new suspension and lift setup between 2.5 and 4 inches. I can't figure out what setups will work with a magneride delete and which ones don't. I know I won't get the same quality ride as the stock shocks, but I'd like to get as close as I can to it.
Ideally, I'd like to spend under 3k, but I know beggars can't be choosers. All opinions and advice are welcomed. Thanks for reading!
