I have just the struts you need.... coming off the Burb soon... lol

Switching to coilovers, yeah?

I have some barely-used Belltech struts that @crazycrew made me buy from him few months back. Next time I'm passing his place I'm gonna grab the Belltech alignment cams I should've gotten back then. Have all new control arms with ball joints and bushings, McG spindles, Belltech struts, 3" rear coils, mystery coils for more drop :secret:, new Belltech rear shocks, shock extenders, short (Pathfinder?) helper air bags, resistors for the Autoride disable, sway bar relocator links, rear lower arm relocators, Spohn panhard, etc. I really think all that's left is to cut the bumpstops and bolt everything on. But then there's those custom lower and upper rear control arms I wanna make...

Nah, no coilovers for me... I'm not made of money like @Galante

I am swapping out the Belltech struts for a set of 9 way adjustable Ranchos.

Belltechs ride good but to soft for my liking. Rode like stock.

not exactly the effect I was going for I should have put the led's in a different position but it works for now, next are some blue leds under the running boards also tied to the courtesy lights and puddle lights

Lug nuts need to be changed out. Too many hits on the zipper guns in the shop and they are pretty ugly.

14x1.5mm
19mm wrench
48mm length
Conical seat

Any specific favorites you recommend? eBay, Amazon or local shops? Thx.

I posted this to the facebook group but thought it would be worth sharing here too. Remember to take off your lower door weatherstrip and clean underneath every once in awhile. I found some nasty stuff under there.

local wheel shop is probably the easiest fastest way, lug nut prices can be stupid online and no way to tell what kind of quality they may be.

I believe we replaced the ones on our PPV with a set of Monster brand. They're chrome plated, instead of having the thick chrome foil over standard lug nuts. All that foil does is distort, and eventually falling off, leaving you with a different-sized lug nut to worry about when you're on the side of the road at 0200 with a flat.

Just made it to SC, thanks everyone for the tips for the drive. Tahoe ran great, only had to add a quart of oil in Alabama and drain the catch can twice but no other issues other than my mom locking my keys in the car... thankfully I have a spare key hidden! Now tomorrow the cleaning will commence!!

Made some lighting changes. Tinted tail lights, red interior LEDs, and white vanity mirror LEDs. Also found a super cheap power fold mirror donor ($25) and replaced the motor in my mirror in about 30 minutes.

The tail lights is a subtle change, but cleans up the rear quite a bit. Light output doesn't appear to be effected too much.
