Tonyrodz's Tahoe Build Thread

You couldn't accurately count a single-digit number of wheel spokes so it's no surprise you got lost counting above 20. You have numbers tattooed on your fingers and toes, don't you? That would explain being lost above 20.

Yeah definitely need to install the new seals. I think @Tonyrodz was just talking about selling the springs and not the seals right Tony?
Edit: we were both posting at the same time so I didn’t see your answer Tony. I guess you should be ok, how many miles on those seals? My only question would be how much metal was in the oil, it might have damaged them. If it was me I would install the new seals while the heads are off, it’s a half hour job.

Definitely! New seals, and same springs, if they’re the ones you want. I kinda think I’d use the new springs as well unless they’re inferior to your previous ones.
