    Front Plate Cover?

    I have searched high and low. Does anyone know if there is an aftermarket cover to fill the ugly box where the front plate goes? It is hard to believe with all the clean exterior mods available out there that no one makes a cover to fit flush in that space. Thanks in advance.

    Non-Oiled Air Filter

    Huh? That is precisely the purpose of ANY filter. For dirt to stay with it and not enter the combustion chamber.

    Front Suspension Rebound Dampening???

    Brand new 2011 Tahoe LTZ 4wd. Been noticing when I go over speed bumps slowly, that on the rebound it feels like something is loose in the suspension. The truck runs tight in all other aspects. Last night, went over speed bump and felt a crunching sound under the front end. Never had this...

    Water fording depth?

    Just go find where the lowest air intake duct is, and that will be the height. Sure you can go a couple feet as long as it is not "rushing" water.

    accident - diminished value?

    Sounds like this will not be a total. BUT, you need to find the BEST bodyshop and repair facility in your area. DO NOT let the insurance company send you somewhere they use. YOU HAVE THE RIGHT to choose your own repair facility. ALSO, DO NOT ACCEPT a check cut from the adjuster WITHOUT...

    Oval Chrome Assist Steps

    Tried to post this in classifieds, didn't work. Anyway, just received the OEM 6" Oval Chrome Assist Steps to replace the stock running boards. Just don't work for my taste and what my vision is for my Tahoe. So if anyone is looking in the SoCal area, PM me. Much cheaper than full retail...

    Custom Rockers?

    Thanks. However in looking at the pix, they look like standard running boards. My idea is to have no running board at all. Just some protection for the gap where door meets body. Right now it is just the rubber gasket. The only spray protection I am looking for is for under the body of the...

    I'm back and it's not pretty. Vandalism #2

    OMG!! Nothing short of death penalty for this kind of behavior. Someone who does acts like this should have NO right to keep breathing our precious air. Find him! Sorry man.

    Early Teaser Pix

    Thanks. I like seeing the pipes when they are the Corsa tips. They make such solid polished tips, with depth. The "sport" version sounds just like my old Corsa. Nothing beats the RSC, throaty on throttle, SILENT on the hwy. My old nbs had the Corsa's with the side exit. Debating whether to...

    Early Teaser Pix

    Here is a pic of the new LTZ 4wd. Working on some custom rocker panel trim and probably going to lose the side molding. And here's some custom vinyl work on a new rear emblem. Made to match my the color scheme on my '93 Eliminator. Getting the vinyl on was a b*tch!!!!!!! Still working out...

    Custom Rockers?

    The whole idea of these is that you really won't be able to see them, they will simply extend right to the edge of the bottom of the door (bent upward a bit) to be flush with the underbody. The only extension would be under the body to provide some spray protection where the stock plastic...

    Custom Rockers?

    That is good to hear. Any experience on those door sills in snowy/icy weather? I travel to snow country a couple/few times a year. Thanks! ---------- Post added at 07:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:15 PM ---------- Sounds like I have created a project for myself. Now to find a...

    Custom Rockers?

    Looking to see if anyone knows of a company that can produce or build a custom rocker panel. I am simply looking for something to replicate the standard rockers that were under the doors of the nbs tahoes. I really dislike the running boards, I have the 6" oval chrome ones on order (and...

    On order, and can get here soon enough.

    2011 Tahoe LTZ - Rear End not even

    After a good amount of research, I have ordered the Spohn panhard bar. Apparently many trucks and cars are not perfectly mounted from body to frame often leading to a not "perfect" centering of the axles. Read many forums of Silverados and F-150's that are off up to 3/4 of an inch. I am...

    2011 Tahoe LTZ - Rear End not even

    This is interesting. I just found an adjustable bar made by Spohn. They have a video showing a nbs tahoe getting lowered and how the right rear hits the fender and the left rear just tucks under it. Hmmm, almost a design issue? I crawled under the tahoe and looked at the panhard earlier...

    2011 Tahoe LTZ - Rear End not even

    No adjustment possible. Spoke to dealer, the entire rear end is completely fixed and there is no way to adjust for any lateral "centering". It could be as simple as an uneven spring, or as complicated as a misaligned body. Who knows. Really unnoticeable by anyone but me probably, but it bugs...

    Nitto 305/50 R20's fit on stock?

    Will Nitto 420s 305/50 R20's fit on stock 4wd setup for Tahoe LTZ? No lift, no leveling. Don't mind doing some trimming of internal plastic wheel well area. Thanks in advance!

    2011 Tahoe LTZ - Rear End not even

    Will try to post some pictures later today. Going to climb under rear end and see if there are any adjustable points that may be out of whack. Looking at panhard parts, it does not look like the right component to account for lateral left/right adjustments. The vehicle runs smooth and...

    2011 Tahoe LTZ - Rear End not even

    Thanks all. Has anyone else measured the extension of the wheels on your wheel wells? Just curious if this is standard and I am the only one noticing. Looking underneath the vehicle, everything looks dead on straight and solidly welded. Can't determine where the discrepancy would be? I...

    2011 Tahoe LTZ - Rear End not even

    Thanks Boss. Wish I knew what a Panhard bar was. One wheel extends right perfect to the wheel well, while the left sits just inside it. I have a picky eye and it was something I kept noticing, so decided to start measuring and parking on different level surfaces. Will take to dealer if...

    2011 Tahoe LTZ - Rear End not even

    Hard to explain. My right rear tire sits out about a 1/3-1/2" more than the left rear. I have used a plumb line to confirm, and have changed parking locations a dozen times to adjust for any awkward ground surface. Is this the intended design, or is this a rear end that is out of whack...

    20' BBS Toyota rims on NNBS Black Tahoe

    Thanks for the feedback! I saw a picture of these on a concept Silverado "it think" and they talked about how these wheels were actually reminscent of the old Chevy truck wheels. ARe they "Toyota rims" technically speaking? I was under the impression they were just BBS Truck rims? I don't...

    Painted tail lights?

    Don't go any further. STop with the spray tint, or just go back to regular. Just my two cents.
