What about the grill insert? I have my stock rims/tires ready to go. You usually work days right? I'm available tomorrow to test out the drop and see if I like the ride.

Here's the style, they're all pristine but could use tires soon. Im really interested in riding in your truck to get a feel for the drop. Today would be best for me and I can help take all the sh** off and get her back to stock if its a Tuesday or Wednesday. A baby huh? I could sell one of my twins, they're really cute:)

Between getting it broken in to and trying to have a baby I just want something low key so, as hard as it is to say, I've decided to go back to stock.

Rims/Tires: 22" black wheels/polished lips on Toyo Proxes STIIs 305/40/22. Less than a year old,tires are perfect, wheels are perfect, around 7-8K highway miles on them. Never been curbed. I have a work car so the Tahoe is driven minimally and when it is it's usually on some sort of overnight trip. Id prefer to trade for some stock wheels with good tires and a little cash.

These are what I used to have and what I want now...open to others though:

this is what I have (pre and post drop kit pics):

Drop Kit: Purchased from Max, Ford "purple" torsion keys, Belltech progressive rate springs, shock extenders, shorter bumpstops, Bilstein HD shocks, all used less than a year. Paid close to $450 for everything. I'll let it go for $285. Look at the above pics for what a difference the drop kit made with the stance of this truck.

Tinted Tails: Purchased from Kelley, oem tails painted and glossed over, look great...tinted the right way. Very dark but tail light and brakes are plainly visible when applied. $60

SS Bumper: I'm on the fence about selling this. It's painted black and has the mesh grille insert for the lower center cutout. The shop got creative when installing it. To avoid the normal gap associated with these covers they removed my bumper entirely, cut the cover in half, mounted it, and seamed it back together. It can be removed/reinstalled in 1 piece with no problems they assured me. It has the normal rock chips, etc, you'd expect from interstate use...nothing some touch up paint won't fix. If you look in the daylight and are looking for it you can see part of the seam. No one really notices until I point it out. I'd let it go for $350...if yours is black you're all set.

I should have more pics if anyone wants them. I'm as honest as can be with all this stuff. I'd prefer to deal locally but will ship if youre paying. If you want to do the wheel swap I'll meet you halfway with a hydraulic jack and we'll do this thing. Let me know if you got any questions. Thanks.





Is the lowering kit for sale i have cash ill pay shipping if youll tell me what it cost to orange, texas 77630. my number is 409-920-2237 and my email is [email protected] text or email me asap Thanks

They're 16's. Honestly my wife would die if I came home with BLACK 22's. She's set on LTZ 20's and so am I. Im interested in the drop still. I work 3A-1P Sun and Mon and im off Tue Wed. Other than that I'm all nights. Do you have any GM vehicles that need a tune? I can do that too. It will be nice to meet you, finally.
