05Single's virgin build thread. 03 tahoe

[05Single]

I knew the Z71 lower valance would work on our bumper. I made a suggestion on someone else's thread, and guys didn't believe me !
Anyway, I think it looks great.

I think we were talking about a gmc bumper , which it won’t fit. Or this someone else ? Tag em, let me know it bolts up in the exact same spot with zero modification

Def wasn't the gmc bumper. As usual I can't remember who it was, but I know @Rocket Man will remember.

You see the swap more on pickups than Tahoes. I don’t know if anyone on here has actually swapped over to a z71 valance

It was suggested that I try it on my Yukon bumper.

Looking at your bumper and mine it wont fit. Your valance either on of them , the center part is wider for sure.

Those Dubs looked reeeeaaally good and the paint is wet!! New 20s look good tooooo...but we all have our favs!

Congrats on the CDL!! Hopefully big things coming your way.

Those underlit ballin' pics and all those Alaskan backdrop and namedrop photos are top notch!! Just stunning scenery.

Eeeewww need to do something with that tailpipe though. You are rocking everywhere else and you got that dangly OEM thing hanging out there......umm why? And why no one else here is busting his balls about that?

Pretty much done with the mods so...famous words by us all right? Dave keeps changing up the valance and the Kelvin of the fogs and then and then and then....no such thing as ever done with mods....you know this all too well man!!

Keep up the great work though.

yo bro! Lol
I had a round slant cut 4” inlet 5” outlet that I was gonna put on but didn’t like it (page 58). So I got a different oval style but the inlet was too small at 2.5” , so I got rid of that one too .
I just recently got a 3” in 4” out that’s resonated to give it a little deeper tone, but need to get it welded on.
And I still have a bunch of projects that I’m always working on and a bunch of parts that are stacking up. If I finish them I post them, whenever that is I never know lol. Feel like I’ll never ever be done modding this.
Dubs looked good but too big for me. Believe it or not I get more compliments on the Tahoe with 20s than I did with 6s.
And thanks , big things coming my way thanks to that license. We will see where it takes me, exited for the journey of the glamorous life of truck driving

Hey how did you get my “fun” sock ? I’ve been looking everywhere for that thing

Big things going on over here. Removed the front tow hooks. Why didn’t anyone tell me to remove these before ?!! Winter I’ll slap them back on. Two 18mm bolts. Took 5 minutes.

With the z71 there’s always the opening. But with winter time it’s best to have hooks . I wouldnt see a need for them ever in FL
