2WD. No wonder you can get away using this kit. On a 4WD the CVs would be at a a severe angle without a drop. Looks like the tire is rubbing on the upper A arm at full lock.

Looks good though and thanks for the pics.

I again will have to say that it looks good. I was worried about the BL, but seeing it it looks fantastic.

They actually started that half way through the NBS years... I think around 04-05 ish when the Z71 logo on the C Pillar changed from Gold/Silver to Red/Black/Silver. The gold/silver just said "Z71" whereas the newer NBS emblem either says "Z71" (for 2wd vehicles) for "Z71 4x4"... So you used to be right pre-2005 but GM decided to change that.

Should have never made z71 in 2wd. I hate not having 4wd but oh well. I didn't really have a choice cause I'm 18 and my dad bought this vehicle for me an i def wasn't going to complain about getting a z71 Tahoe. It's fully loaded except 4wd :(

Thanks for the explanation Felix.

The 2wd Z71 should be like a pre-runner edition or something not a Z71. Just my thoughts.
