    1999 Tahoe rear 4dr 2wd sway bar..

    I hit a local Pick-n-Pull & got a stock rear sway bar, links, frame brackets & hardware for under $40. It made a big difference since I installed new shocks at all four corners & the Airlift helper bag kit at the same time. It no longer feels like I'm driving a bobble head going down the highway...

    Four 8" subs & amp?

    I'm going to go with the Pioneer GM-D8601 class D mono block amp, it has a remote bass level control. I'm also thinking about running it at 800 watts X 1 Ohm with four single voice coil 4 Ohm 8" Kicker Comps S subs that will handle more power than the regular Comps since it has the remote bass...

    Four 8" subs & amp?

    So if I went with four 8 ohm subs in parallel that would give me 2 ohms. The Kenwood amp is rated at 500 watts at 2 ohms, would that be too much for the comp subs? Is the Pioneer GM-D8601 amp any good? It's also 500 watts at 2 ohms 1 channel. I'm asking because all of the rest of the system is...

    Four 8" subs & amp?

    Ok, I have asked this on other forums with no response, so thought I'd try here too. I'm planning on going with four 8" Kicker Comp Series subs in my truck. Now what set up is best for this, a Pioneer GM-6500F 4 channel amp bridged putting out 180 watts x 2 channels at 4 ohms running two pairs...

    Passive Bass Blocker

    I found these Pioneer tweeters that I think I'm gonna get, looks like they have the passive crossover in line already. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_9132_Pioneer-TS-T110.html

    Passive Bass Blocker

    I'm wanting to add some 6x9s in the doors & subwoofers behind the seat of my old C-10 pickup, but I'd like to add a pair of tweeters at the top the a-pillars too. My plan was to use an amp on the 6x9s & an amp on the subs, but I wanna run the tweeters of the deck. Are passive bass blockers what...

    Iffy On Towing a 32' Wellcraft CCF (~10k lbs), With My '99 2 Door...!

    It doesn't take to much weight to start loading down the rear suspension on my Tahoe till I'm on the bump stops. Installing overload bags & weight distributing hitch, will help with distributing the weight to all the wheels & help gain some stability to keep from getting sway with a heavy load...

    Iffy On Towing a 32' Wellcraft CCF (~10k lbs), With My '99 2 Door...!

    I would never tow a 10,000-12,000 lbs trailer with surge brakes behind my Tahoe, or even with a 3/4 ton Suburban. It will push you, and if you can't apply just the trailer brakes to slow the trailer down when it starts pushing you it could get hairy. I'd find someone with a 1 ton truck...

    Brake lines ? SAE, Metric, or what ?

    If your lines are 3/16", they will be a double flair with a 3/8"-24 thread size flair nut. If your lines are 1/4" the flair nut will be a 7/16"-24 size nut. The only place I can think that the flair nuts would be a different size at would be at the master cylinder. I haven't ran new lines to an...

    all DD install pics OBS.

    I was planning on getting the DIY kit, but ran outta money to buy the kit & a new deck with all the other projects I got going on. It would be cool to see others that have installed it, the DIY kit or the ready to go dash kit. The Detail SS.com kit: http://thedetailss.com/95-99_CK_Double_Din.html

    Need a new grill 1998 Suburban

    What??? Are you talking about? The dual headlights ran from 88-89, composites from 90-99, side markers went from 88-93 & changed in 94-99, but the parking lights ran from 88-99. I do belive the 88-89s had a spacer betwen the grille & parking lights to push them out some. If he was to pick up a...

    Need a new grill 1998 Suburban

    The Land Rover grille is ugly! I've seen a couple in person, I don't know how people put these on their truck & think they look good. I'd definitely stick with the 94 - 99 GMC grille, and not the full chrome one either. I don't really care much for the Chevy grille that's on my Tahoe, when my...
