2/2 Belltech springs and Belltech Shackles. Also rebuilt the front end with napa premium tie rod ends, pitman arm, idler arm, idler pivot assembly, and upper balljoints. I replaced the bilsteins at all four corners awhile back, was pretty impressed at their condition for having 120k. Also did the fuel pump when he blew it up and he had the intake gaskets replaced a few months ago, don't think much else can go except for the trans and we'll put a 4L80E in at that point. Front settled 1/2" after I drove the truck and I'm sure it will drop a hair more in the next week. Rides great and handles much better though some bigger sways are on the list as well. Made me kind of miss the truck when I punched it around the corner and walked the ass out. I'd love to have another limited

Not sure the denali is awd with about 5" or so drop where the 2wd limited is only a 2". The obs sits low as hell but I think I'm still a good inch or so lower.

Looks good, bro. Man, I forgot you used to have that obs.
Hell yeah I was gonna do an LQ4 swap and just decided to buy the truck it came with. Forgot how much fun 2wd was, shit would get me in trouble if the denali was rear wheel only.

i'm not a fan of lowered rides but otherwise the tahoe is sweet.

I am if it's done tastefully, and those are done right.

I wouldn't mind having a SS for a DD once I lift mine. The only downfall is I'd get worse gas mileage than the lifted one once I got done sinking some coin into it

Well the limited was already lowered like 2/3 from the factory with drop spindles and i think shackles inthe back (correct if im wrong) so you would be about a 5/6 ishh
