    09 LTZ question.

    Been away from the forums a while and have a new Tahoe to lift. My 04 had torsion keys, Ive read they NNBS do not, and you can acheive front/rear lift with coil spring spacers. There are tons of kits, mostly aluminum spacers. They go up to 3", and can be had for 129+. For those of you who...

    Shift Kit or Rebuild Kit

    As some of you know, I bought an 05 LQ9 and 65E off of here a little bit ago. All were pulled from a running Escalade with 155k, no Known issues. While I have the trans out, It only makes good sense to beef it up a little. So my question is, would most of you do the Transgo Shift Kit ($50.00)...

    Anyone know how to disable this feature?? I have the windows tinted and literally cannot see crap when they auto darken, which apparently is every single time the truck starts.... Passenger side doesn't do it.

    2000-2006 Tahoe/Yukon Rear Cargo Cover

    As the title states thats what Ima lookin fer :) I have one off of my 03 Yukon XL and its too wide so I assume the burban ones will not fit either. Im talking about the retractable cover, I realized that people might assume I just meant the rear mat or something. Color doesn't matter to me.

    So I have a chance to purchase a 100% complete 5.3 and 4l60e out of a 2005 suburban for 1650,the pair have just under 96k miles. Plan is to build the engine and trans and just swap them out. Any issues with running the 2wd in my 04Z71? I would assume the only real thing that needs to change...

Before i get the " go with a 6 inch " crowd, Remember I already have 3" and I can crank a little on the Keys to get a tad...
