Finally Leveled The Tahoe

[ayeplussjr]

After about a year and a half with the KMC Slides and 2/3 Belltech drop. I wanted to change it up a bit so I leveled it out with the ReadyLift SST kit, 17in KMC Hoss, 285 70/17 BFG All-Terrains, and a set of 5100 Series Bilstein Shocks (thanks for the heads up on those Max). So, here are some before and after pictures. The front end was sagging a bit so the torsion bar had to be cranked. So, I'm gonna need some new torsion bars soon. I need to wash the truck, but it's gonna rain soon so I'll wait til after the rain comes.

I liked my dropped look too, but I just didn't like the ride. Ride was too rough. Got my kids in the car and the new way is a lot more comfortable IMO.

No...I went with the 18mm offset. Didn't want the wheel to stick out too much.

I second that....looks very awesome with the lift and ATs but would look killer without the running boards. But if it's a family ride you might not be able to remove them without getting bitched at!

I like it... gotta clean those wheel wells though. being up helps a lot when snagging parking spots at school.
