How to improve handling of the 'Hoe?

[oak510_tahoe]

What other parts/mods are available to improve the handling of the 05 'hoe?

I have Auto-Ride so I don't want to mess with that for the time being.
I have the Hotchkis Front & Rear Sway Bar Kit.

Just wanted to know what else is available? I want to stay around the same ride height as I want the clearance ( it's 4x4 ). I plan to change my wheels over to some of the OEM 17's from the newer 'hoe's. I searched on some random websites, the only thing that turns up are front end steering stabilizers. But it seems those are for lifted trucks and/or trucks with larger wheels. Will there be any benefit in adding that onto a truck that has OEM height/wheels? Thanks.

eibach and belltech make a sway bar kit as well, you can always upgrade the bushings as well

Which bushings my man? I'm installing a stabilizer for my 24s but my steering feels a little "loose". The stabilizer should firm that up but It doesn't negate that the steering parts were still loose before the stabilizer.

You can upgrade the shocks and all the chassis/suspension bushings (control arms, end links, trailing arms, etc). Polyurethane bushings will help get rid of a lot of the slop from the stock bushings. There really isn't much else you can do with these trucks aside from larger sway bars and lowering the cg. I know you want to keep it at stock height, but lowering the cg will make a huge difference with handling. As for the steering stabilizer, I'd spend the money elsewhere if you're keeping stock or close to stock size wheels/tires.

You have a pic of your stabilizer installed? Can you give a quick run down of how/where you bolted it in?
