: Diesel Noob here with a suspension ?

Hi all. I have just purchased a 2004 GMC Sierra 2500HD Duramax. I put it up on the lift this morning to check everything out, and noticed that with the weight on the wheels, the bump stops are only about 1/4 inch from the A-arms. The truck doesn't seem to be sitting low or anything like that, so we couldn't figure out why it was like that. My question is, is this normal?? Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.


I attached a pic of the truck, so you can get an idea of how it's sitting.

:welcome2: to DP... Yep its normal. It looks like maybe someone cranked the TB's a bit to fit those tires. What size are they?

Awesome. Thanks. I guess it's just the paranoia getting the best of me. Every time I buy a used vehicle every little bump and vibe is the end of the world until I find out different. :) Thanks for the help.
