    Nivomat load leveling shock absorber Conversation to BILSTEIN

    I just did the smooth ride conversion on my 09 Hoe LT. Used Moog springs and put Bilstien 5100s on all 4 corners. It raised the rear ride height quite a bit but the ride and I kid you not, is like driving off the floor new. I may at a later time try to level her but I’m gonna let them settle a...

    Does anybody want to sell me their "Defender" badge?

    They sell these outright at some of the K9 association online stores. I'm a member so not sure if that matters or not if you want to buy one.

    A/C Belt

    Good heavens! What a pain. Guess that changes my plans this weekend. Crap! No tensioner on my 09 either.

    Squeaking serpentine belt during a turn

    Can't add anything that you haven't already suspected. Pulley is probably going bad and the extra tasking when turning the wheel might be causing the bad pulley to drag? I'd suspect it to freeze up and throw your belt at anytime if that is the problem. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

    16 Inch Steel PPV Rims?

    Check that link I posted, quite a bit of info on there. It depends also on what year model you were looking at, 4wd or 2wd, PPV or SSV. Law Enforcement utilizes both PPV and SSV depending on the agency and what task they are using it for.

    16 Inch Steel PPV Rims?

    Check this page. It has a lot of good info on it. I'm showing 2006 as the last year they did 16" rims. http://www.sizemytires.com/make/chevy/tahoe#all

    Ball Joints 09 Hoe/85K miles

    Second opinion on my ball joints. Some wear but not near enough to replace. Looks like the tire shop boys were wanting to make some extra cash.

    Driveshaft or oil leak?

    Yes sure do. I wouldn't probably tackle that either. I don't have the tools that I used to have.

    Ball Joints 09 Hoe/85K miles

    Hate to hear that, but at least it sounds like it's not all too odd for that to happen. I'm thinking along the same lines though, if I'm going to do uppers, I might as well rebuild as much of it as I can while it's down.

    Driveshaft or oil leak?

    I've seen some threads on other sites dealing with rear main seals. I just was pretty sure I saw three or four spots dripping like it had blown around under there when driving or something. Hope you get it nailed down.

    Ball Joints 09 Hoe/85K miles

    Anyone else had any early wearing ball joints? Guy at tire shop said it's uppers, I'm trying to get in and get a second opinion but seemed a little low mileage (85K) for ball joints. :wtf:

    She is finally done!!!!

    Sic but I've gotta say dump the bull bar. It's kind of like a Wall Street Exec in a formal tuxedo wearing a straw cowboy hat.
