    Back In The Game Again

    Howdy from San Antonio! A few years ago I parted out my my slammed 6-speed 2004 Tahoe after a hail storm turned it into a golf ball and then the spider gears in the rear axle shattered. Since then I've been itching to get another family hauler with third row. Throughout all my searching I...

    Fix My Clutch Fire Sale: COMPLETE Front Coilover Conversion

    Murphy's Law reared it's ugly head on me. I've been collecting parts for the coilover conversion on the front of my 2004 Tahoe for a while now. I bought a used coilover conversion setup from Bomba02 minus Atomic's brackets because I had my own. Low and behold, while the shocks were being...

    Bomba02

    I bought a set of used coilover shocks from Bomba02. I got great communication before and after the sale along with a tracking number. The parts were safely packed and were in great shape. I would definitely do the deal again.

    Open Doug Thorley Headers & Broken Stock Exhaust Manifold Bolts

    I've always wanted to use Doug Thorley 4-2-1 headers. Everything I've ever read about header design touts a 4-2-1 header as the best thing for a daily driver that routinely goes through stop and go city driving. This design header is supposed to be great at increasing low-RPM torque and...

    Tahoe 6-Speed T56 Conversion

    I will never have a daily driver that is an automatic if I can help it. It is my strongly held personal belief that this mod is a requirement as it fixes the biggest flaw of the NBS Tahoe: an automatic transmission. I did an auto-to-manual swap on my last vehicle (2003 Toyota Tacoma) so this...

    T56 Short Throw Shifter Modificatoin

    T56 Short Throw Shifter Modification I did a T56 conversion in my 2004 Tahoe and I fabricated a custom shifter arm to fit within the left side of the stock cup holder. The fabricated shifter arm worked perfectly except for one problem: the throws were very long due to the required height of...

    Tahoe 2WD 4L60E Transmission

    I have the 2WD 4L60E transmission for sale from my 2004 Tahoe. I'm doing a special conversion project and have no need for the transmission. The transmission shifted firmly and drove great when installed, and the odometer read 165,000 when it was pulled. I'm located in San Antonio, TX (78253)...

    Bose Factory Subwoofer & Box

    I had to remove the factory bose subwoofer as it won't fit any longer because of a special project that I'm doing on my 2004 Tahoe. The sub and box work perfect. I'm located in San Antonio, TX (78253). I don't know the market for these things used, so let's go with $70+shipping OBO.

    Attempt To Silence TPMS Complaints

    This is not my original idea, just my implementation of something I picked up browsing corvette stuff online. My TPMS sensors will not fit my wheel tire combination, so this is my attempt at disabling the alerts from TPMS. I put three of the sensors inside a pvc container: Then I...

    Blower Motor Resistor Repair

    I started my daily driver 2004 Tahoe yesterday and put on the A/C only to find out that the front fans would only work on high. I did some research and after checking the fuses I decided to look at the fan blower resistor. Here is it's location partly removing the cover and the resistor...

    2007+ Front Spring Rate ??

    Does anyone know what the spring rate for the stock front springs on 2WD 2007+ for Tahoe/Escalade/Yukon? If my research is accurate then the 2007+ Tahoe/Escalade/Yukon switched to coilover shocks instead of torsion bars. I'm planning a conversion on my 2004 Tahoe to coilover shocks, but I'm...

    DJM 3" Drop Springs

    I got these drop springs with a package deal (spindles and springs) from another user on here. I used them for a little more than a month and I was happy with their ride quality. The only reason I uninstalled them is because I got some of Tony's 6" drop springs. These springs ride really nice...

    Rear QA1 Shock Upgrade

    The last lowered vehicle I owned never had the ride quality that I was looking for and I even tried three different set of shocks (stock, kyb, and bilstein). Since it was so hard to find a shock that gave the ride I wanted I have always wondered how well adjustable shocks work on a daily...

    Stock Panhard Clearance Improvement

    I did my free travel mod about a month or so ago. I then cycled the suspension without the springs in or shocks attached and installed small bump stops on top of the axle. The bump stops hit before anything else. The problem is that I want to go lower and still have plenty of travel before...

    My Lowering Experience

    Operation Altitude Check When I started planning here's what I wanted to accomplish: Go as low as possible without regularly bottoming out, killing the turning radius, or reducing reliability. Handling and looks are much less important to me than this. Maintain comfortable ride as much...

    McGaughys Lowering Spindles Turning Radius FIX

    Some background: Before my Tahoe I owned a long-wheelbase double-cab Toyota Tacoma that didn't have a great turning radius. When I started driving and parking my 2004 2wd Tahoe LT and I LOVED it's improvement in turning radius over my Tacoma. The tighter turning radius made low-speed...

    Howdy Y'all, Soon I'm going to be installing 2" lowering spindles on the front of my 2004 2WD Tahoe. I don't yet have a Tahoe service manual, so I was wondering if anyone can let me know what the torque specs I should use on the suspension components that I need to disassemble and reassemble.
