never had problems with warranty work on any truck I had a body lift on
it shouldnt void any suspension warranty because you're only putting spacers between they body and frame. you arent changin any components or altering the pinion angle, etc etc

As far as the drop issues are concerned, they may could void your transmission warranty if the yoke is hitting the transmission due to lowering your truck causing your driveshaft to tilt upward.

the warranty questions need to stop, there needs to be a sticky about it. its common sense, the same answer everytime.... GM obviously isnt going to warranty a part thats not theres. one part isnt gonna void the warranty on the whole trucks suspension or engine. if THAT specific part screws something up, then no ofcourse they wont warranty it. like thier not going to blame the aftermarket headers because the intake fuked up

im sorry to offend your message board. I dint know you were god of all posts. I know it was a dumb question, i was mostly asking with experience from other people from the board. Ive never had a warranted auto in my life.
