Blown shock seal on a Rancho RS7000
Follow up: I took it out this weekend to a popular hot springs along the Carson river. Very rough 2 hour trek in surface composed mostly of 6 to 12 inch rock covered trails with plenty of 18 to 36 inch boulders to squeeze or climb over. A dozen water crossings with 2 to 4 foot deep washouts...- Tozan

What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?
That's why I like the retractable side steps they are not very noticeable and so far I haven't smashed them on any rocks..- Tozan

Lift More or Keep CCM
What gearing do you have? Do you have a two speed transfer case? A two speed will have 2H 4H and 4Lo on the dial A single speed will only have 2H and 4H For off road and or bigger tires a high low range transfer case is really a big deal. My first set of tires that caused a big loss of MPG...- Tozan

Did you compare the length of both shocks before you installed them. I was looking at the overall length specs on that shock and it was around 20 inches. My rig has a 4 inch lift and the overall on my King shocks are only 23.6 I believe stock length was around 18 inches. If that is true and...- Tozan

Installing a storage / bed platform for camping in a Tahoe and window insulation.
This is with a shorter she;f section in the front allowing room for a refrigerator and the bed still fit on top. With this set up the passenger in the front seat can get to the refrigerator. You can store all sorts of things under the shelf. This is the rear section lifted up with a 6.5... -
Installing a storage / bed platform for camping in a Tahoe and window insulation.
It is very easy to build you can set it up to work with the second row seating or with no rear seats at all. I have several configurations that I use.. Most of the time it is the two 4 foot sections with a lift up in the rear and a 3 foot wide that lifts up in the front and a refrigerator... -
Installing a storage / bed platform for camping in a Tahoe and window insulation.
I actually don't open it from the inside but both the window and hatch are electric so I would guess it shouldn't be to hard to set up a switch someplace. I know my key fob also has a window release on it. Thank you. -

Thank you, I run a 4 inch lift now and most likely will pick up another inch for a total of 5 inches front and rear. The kings will enable more wheel travel most likely up to 8 inches or more depending on how much the axles will take... They should preform better although I have no complaints... -
