FINAL 1.5" pictures

[hoe]

well I asked a tons of questions and requested tons of pics... but wanted to fit my needs with performance still in mind. I decided on a 1.5" when people recomended 2 & 3. I made careful calculations into what I would want, so here are some pics

I have alot of weight in the rear including a 80e tranny.










IMO, I LOVE the lifted look better than lowered, and she handles great... still going to add HD hood and some Indicator side mirrors. Then time for the repaint. Video is taking some time to upload.

wouldn't recommend this in a 35mph zone. Did this on a back street after taken the pics. You can see where she really starts to pull as she shifts at 60mph. its insane. All of this is with a slipping 80e tranny waiting to be swapped. The clutches are welded on this one. So Im anxious to see what it will feel like. Notice I had no need to brake stall the truck on this video. But imagine if I did!

Looks good.
How wide of spacers?

Looks good. Black on black always a plus.

Did u mean wheel spacers or coil spacers? It seems your front it higher fender height then the rear and your wheels stick out for a SS replica rim. Overall looks good but I prefer more level then the front higher

I agree on NBS lifted looks tougher especially Tahoes.

BOTH. And I have tons of weight in the cargo, my entire tool box about 500lbs, and a new 4l80e tranny and converter about 400lbs, so almost 1000lbs in cargo alone, plus she still moved out pretty good.....

the rear is lifted 1.5" coil spacer
the front is lifted with 1-3" ebay keys (narrowed the track width)
Front got 2" wheel spacers, and rear got 1.5" spacers
Believe me she should be pretty level, once I get the weight out of the rear end. I too was amazed how much the springs compressed even with the spacer. I just need to get rid of the weight. But this makes me want to swap to Z71 springs in case I ever tow anything.

I really dont mind the CALI, I just HATE front rake. I should off load it this weekend and get some new pics, and videos.

got the 1000lbs out of my cargo, the rear end sprung up greatly, had to crank front 2 turns to get it level. I think the rear is too high. Im going to remove my coil spacers, to see the stance with the wheel spacers with front decranked, leveled.

We did something similar with our 05. Since it had the autoride, we put in lifting keys, and once the front went up the truck automatically attempts to level it with the autoride air shocks. Got 2" of lift with no ill effects!

You got some pics with it leveled. IMO it didn't look that bad with the cali lean.
