    4.56 Gears Installed

    Last time I checked I was going to pay about $2500 for fronts and rears (king shocks), a little too much for me. But if I hit the power ball I might go for it, lol.

    They are ok, I'd prefer something more heavy duty such as king shocks.

    4.56 Gears Installed

    I would recommend it. I can't give you real numbers other than I can feel the difference when I press the gas. I am having to relearn my gas peddle because I find myself going faster than I should cause it much quicker and it's feels much lighter. I know it doesn't make sense but I've been...

    4.56 Gears Installed

    $1300 out the door. I went to a shop that has done many of these swaps, I didn't want to risk it with a tech at the dealership who is learning with my car.

    I went through desert rat , it's an off road shop, they worked out the details. Paid about $1300, and it took them about 6/7 hours. Still no complaints, should have done this earlier.

    Still in the break in period, but so far I can't complain. I should've done a while back.

    Low Oil Message

    I had the oil pressure sensor replaced and I also replaced the oil level sensor. Oil pressure sensor is working as expected but the oil level sensor is still not working. I still have the message. I've been lazy and just ignore it. Anyone else have better luck than me with it?

    4.56 Gears Installed

    I went ahead and pulled the trigger and had the Tahoe regeared to 4.56's from the stock 3.73. The process took about 6-7 hours but it seemed like forever just being away from my Hoe. I have driven it less than 100 miles but I noticed the difference as soon as I pulled out of the parking lot. As...

    7-9" lift

    I opted for 18's instead of 20's becuase I was strapped for cash, just kidding. I went with 18's becuase I wanted to make sure my sidewall would flex when I lowered the air pressure for the purpose of driving in sand or at the beach. I felt 20's (the tires) would have a toughter sidewall and...
