Default Help gettting a 3/4 drop on Denali

I want to get a 3/4 drop out of my Yukon Denali. Noone sells a kit bigger than 2/3 so I have to piece one together myself.
So far for the front I have picked out 3" Belltech torsion keys, on the back I have 4" Belltech Pro Springs and Belltech Street Performance Shocks all around. I know this will give me the drop I want, but question is will the ride quality be shot to hell? Any input is much appreciated.

spindles and decrank the stock keys a little would be better for the ride and alignment. 4" drop springs will be tight, but not many other options other than air.

I'm not aware of 3" spindles, but you could go with 2" spindles and de-crank your keys for an inch, or go with spindles and keys and don't de-crank the keys all of the way. It's probably cheaper and will ride the same if you just decrank the factory keys an inch though...
