    Is FiatDale still kicking around here?

    I went to @fiatdale build thread of his old Tahoe and the pictures were gone. I was wanting to see the rear of it where he shaved the wiper and handle.

    Need rear shock recommendations for dropped Tahoe

    Any recommendation on a drop Shock for the rear of a lowered Tahoe? It’s currently sitting on a Belltech 2/4 drop (spindles and springs) with the front having the adjustable shocks set at zero and the rear has stock shocks with relocators. I did have the front shocks 1” lower and the belltech...

    07-10 hitch cover

    So I’ve got the older nnbs bumper and it doesn’t have the cool hitch cover. Did gm make an oem cover for the bumpers like mine? I’ve found a few pictures online and I’m not sure if it is factory or not. I’ve seen the street scene ones and I’m not super fond of them. Pictures of my bumper and...

    Changed the look of my door handles

    so I really like how the new LTZ handles look with their color matched inserts. Unfortunately they aren’t the same so I can’t swap them out to my older Tahoe. I came up with a decent alternative. I bought some Avery pearl white vinyl and added my own “inserts” to my chrome handles. I’m pretty...

    Dome light in rear hatch

    So I did this mod to our old 06 Tahoe and loved it. It helped out a ton when loading groceries and what not in a darker parking lot. I finally acquired a newer dome light for our 08 Tahoe. I had to paint it black since the headliner is tan-ish and so was the light. In a nut shell I cut a hole in...

    Baby cam

    i wanted to share with you guys the install I did on our Tahoe. You guys with kids know that those mirrors you mount on the headrests suck at trying to see your rear facing baby.

    The wife's 08 LTZ Tahoe build

    So I figured with new updates I should start a build thread and have everything done shown in one spot. Back in August of last year we traded in our 06 Z71 Tahoe in for this one. It was in great shape with 120k miles on it. Only big gripe with it was the ugly headlights and wheels. First...

    Rear bumper chrome trim

    Has anybody added the chrome trim with something aftermarket and it look decent? I want to add some but it's hard to pay $140+ for Oem. I've seen different listings on eBay but you can't trust everything you see on eBay.

    Is autoride worth keeping?

    So the wife's 08 LTZ came with the autoride of course. After we bought it I noticed that the rear shocks were blown all to shit. I swapped them for some oem 06 shocks we had from a buddies Yukon to get me by because the truck had some weird swaying when hitting bumps. I never heard the...

    Installed a belltech 2/4 kit today. It included spindles, springs, and shock relocators. Went together very easy considering this is the first one I've done. Had to throw on another friends escalade wheels on temporarily till he gets his 22s in the next few days
