    Installing a storage / bed platform for camping in a Tahoe and window insulation.

    Molle gear can be attach to these shelves too. You can also put some carpet in there and strap in other items too.. Plus if you use the right carpet Velcro will stick to it also.

    4 inch Rancho lift, 34 inch tires and steel bumpers front and rear.

    Not sure yet, I am still in the measuring stage If needed I might see about a custom set if needed. Baja kits does make a kit with 9 inches travel so it might be possible. They were telling me the shock is what makes the most difference in extra travel. I was looking under it today I have 2...

    2011 Tahoe LT Third Row grey seats

    I have a set of third row leather seats I think they are tan or gray colored. I removed them after I got it and they have been sitting in storage ever since. I will try to get some photos of them in the next few days. I see on the high end they are selling for $699 a set on ebay I am...

    4 inch Rancho lift, 34 inch tires and steel bumpers front and rear.

    I should be able to get these mounted up next month... Since I have a 4 inch lift kit I will need to change the mounting or get a longer stroke out of them by lengthening the rod and cylinder. With a longer R and C I will be able to increase the wheel travel possibly out to 8 or 9 inches... It...

    4 inch Rancho lift, 34 inch tires and steel bumpers front and rear.

    I did a timed air down and air up with this system. This is the time it took to do two tires so total time for all four tires will simply be double the time. Tires 35x12.5x17 Start air pressure was 55 PSI Lowered to 20 PSI Air down time 4.5 minutes Air pressure 20 PSI filled to 55 PSI Fill...

    Blown shock seal on a Rancho RS7000

    Yes, I went with Moogs upper and lower and replaced all 4 I figured since it is all apart anyway and I would need an alignment then it would be best to replace them all at once. It rides great now and things are back to working the way they should. I wish I had replaced the adjusters and...

    4 inch Rancho lift, 34 inch tires and steel bumpers front and rear.

    More work today, setting up my air up/down system. Everything is spread out before installation. The red hoses will hook to my CO2 air tank in the back of the Tahoe and route under the carpet one coming out by the refrigerator one beside the back seat on the left side. They will be the...

    Blown shock seal on a Rancho RS7000

    I ended up sticking another Rancho 7000 in there for the time being. After pulling the old shock out it measured 1.78 inches longer than the new shock is..... The most likely reason for this is when Folbeck 4 wd installed the shock they used an impact wrench to tighten the shock nut and...

    Rear springs..2008 Tahoe

    I don't think anyone makes a 2 inch long spring. You're best hope would be finding a spring that is overall 2 inches longer. By the way what lift and shock do you have in the back?

    Overlanding?

    We rented a ranch here in Arizona for the last month and have been having fun running trails. Crown King is in the mountains right behind our place. We have a wide open range behind our place and had a lot of fun calling up coyotes and Mule deer. Here is one of those poser photos of my...

    Overlanding?

    I see a lot of suburbans and other GM SUV's out there and their numbers keep growing on all of the overland sites. Full size over landers are out numbering jeeps.

    Blown shock seal on a Rancho RS7000

    The shop in Reno (Folebeck) is not a shop I will ever do business with they do not stand by their poor workmanship and I would rather pay to replace them then take anything back to them... Yes the 2.0 are coil over shocks.

    Blown shock seal on a Rancho RS7000

    Fox doesn't make a 2.0 for the Rancho lift kit. So I may have to go with another RS 7000 for now and design and machine a new mount later for the Fox 2.0 so it will work. Or bite the bullet and get a Fox 2.5 Either way I am going to deal with it after I get to Arizona. I will be there for a...

    Blown shock seal on a Rancho RS7000

    I am heading to Arizona for a month this weekend so I took the rig in to rotate and balance tires. I was also replacing the spare with a new tire since they only had 4 tires in stock when I switched to the 35's. The shock started leaking after they jacked it up to rotate the tires. It is a...

    Overlanding?

    I have had no problem with a 4 inch lift it has never been a problem so far and I have never been stuck in at least a 1000 miles off road this year. When or if I do it again I would use a 4 inch Baja Kit Prerunner lift with 11.5 inches of travel up front and King shocks front and rear. But that...

    Overlanding?

    Went on a hunting trip and we used the Tahoe as a place to hang out at night. This is with the sides of the 270 awning installed. Nights dropped down to around 10 degrees so we had a fire pit inside to keep things warm. The fire pit also helped to preheat the Tahoe before going to bed. I hung...

    4 inch Rancho lift, 34 inch tires and steel bumpers front and rear.

    They are Fab Four bumpers. I am not sure they make them anymore but they still make them for a suburban so they might fit the Tahoe too. They are certainly a strong bumper and they are lighter than most of the other brands I have seen.

    Overlanding?

    It has a 4 inch Rancho lift. Rancho discontinued making this kit due to not enough sales. There are a lot of other options out there for lift kits on chevy SUVs too. some are better than my Rancho kit.
