[00 TAHOE LT "LUTHER"]

What's up forum bro's? So my 2000 LT 4WD journey started from stock, no flares, no running boards, evrything basic.

For the front, I've installed new front hubs, 2" drop spindles, OEM U&L CA's, MOOG sway bar links, rotors, and pads.
In the rear: Tony's custom 5305's, DJM endlinks, and BT SP shocks all the way around. I've done free travel mod/with 1.5 bump stops from Tony.
For the Exterior: hood and window visors, flares, running boards, verticle grill, and black paint.
I still need to sand blast my 22"s, seal and paint them black. I'm running 305/40 tires, but I really want 285/45's. Any sellers? I also NEED new front jounce stops. Im not sure what is best. Any advice?
All of work I have done, with the exception of the drop, was before I found this awesome forum. I have plans to repaint the entire vehicle, install coil overs, and possibly a roll pan. I basically plan to restore and upgrade everything as I learn. I am open to all advice and knowledge, from the set up to the look I love doing this stuff[emoji6]! I spent 20yrs in the Army, so I am very thicked skinned [emoji52] lol. I look forward to your replies. FEED ME BRO'S

I know this might just be my opinion, but that grill looks too much like something that belongs on a Navigator.

 

[00 TAHOE LT "LUTHER"]

I appreciate your opinion....I have already started painting the oem...lol....i felt the same after i put it on. I've just been lazy in changing it back

I'd take side molding off doors.
Paint handles and mirrors to match truck
Paint grille to match truck.
Plastic dip rims black

Think it looks awesome!. other than the grill and bug guard.

OP, Please Don't "plasticrap" your wheels black.

Definatly re paint gas cap door to body color..


O and that red pole.. well its very! RED!

 

[00 TAHOE LT "LUTHER"]

I appreciate the input. Im at odds and need the suggestions. The red pole....lol. I know right! I will be more conscious of RED objects in the future.

[00 TAHOE LT "LUTHER"]

What does the HD front look like? Any pics or links? Shoot I'm open!

 

[ezdaar]

Mike, "tahoewhat" just did HD front end to his. WIll let him show it off.. will be abit before he is on.

 

[00 TAHOE LT "LUTHER"]

Cool.... what would i be looking at price wise? if I decided to do it?

 

[ezdaar]

Beats me, it will vary from JY to JY and if you decide to buy new headlight/turn/fog light assembly's.
Led bulbs, hid's, projector retrofit, bobble head chiwaaawaa to go on hood... etc...

Look here, half way down to see a Suv with HD front and various trucks..

i like the looks, the only thing im not so sure about is the fender flares

 

[00 TAHOE LT "LUTHER"]

Thanks boozer......im lookin at a few things....the flares maybe painted? I dont know....lol. Thats why im fishin

 

[Tahoewhat]

Tahoe not too bad looking. Loose the black gas cap and find some center caps or change wheels, but not bad. kind of digging the black flares.

And.. here is a HD front end ( with my lights, etc.)

 

[00 TAHOE LT "LUTHER"]

Thank you Tahoewhat for the advice....I am digging the HD front

 

[Tahoewhat]

Thank you Tahoewhat for the advice....I am digging the HD front

No problem, just my .02$ on it.

HD front is quite easy actually with a little know how. Grille/top cap/ Hood/ minor cutting, done. Use GM stuff though and your life will be nicer. lol

 

[00 TAHOE LT "LUTHER"]

So how much would I be looking at for those 3 products. Also are all 3 from an 00-02 Silverado HD..... mannn....Im going to do it with and SS custom bumper cover

Cost comes down to how good of a "deal finder" you are.
