    Front End Suspension Suggestions

    Hey guys, Started noticing some rough noises in the suspension up front. Sure enough, sway bar bushings and end links look toast. Here's the question; My front end is leveled with the rough country kit. With it being "lifted" do I need longer sway bar links? If so, where can I find them...

    Off-road Lighting Idea

    Sorry! 4 on the roof rack and then 2 in the grille. Do they put out more of a spot or flood type light? ---------- Post added at 03:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:58 PM ---------- So, for now I think the plan is to buy 4 of the Blazer 6" and then 2 of the blazer rectangles for...

    Nice, do you think they'd fit behind the grille with the set-up I described? May just run 6 of those and then two of these on the back: http://www.amazon.com/Blazer-DF1073KB-Driving-Light-Housing/dp/B008AF7640/ref=sr_1_18?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1433273383&sr=1-18

    Off-road Lighting Idea

    The blazer lights look about the same except they have the 100w bulbs already? Might have to go that route. Good call. Do they pivot up and down?

    Off-road Lighting Idea

    I would run it through the existing hole from when the Tahoe used to be a sheriff's vehicle. Also, the roof rack is drilled for lights already from the previous owner, so I could even run the back-up lights through the same hole and then through the rack. ---------- Post added at 02:12 PM...

    Off-road Lighting Idea

    So, as of late I've been thinking a ton about adding some lighting to my 2002 Tahoe. I'm on a budget and these lights will get light use. Also, no led bars. Sorry, just not for me. Anyway, Harbor Freight (I know, I know) sells the following lights...

    Suspension Question - 2002 Tahoe

    Hey everyone, Currently I'm running this kit from Rough Country: http://www.roughcountry.com/gm-suspension-lift-kit-273n2.html I'm still experiencing a tad of a nose dive and a droop in the rear driver side. Would it be worth it to look into z71 springs in the back as opposed to the...

    Anyone near DFW?!

    There's a few things: A slight rattle in the engine bay/wheel well on bumps (nothing crazy sized) You can feel almost like a shake in the steering when turning? Hard to really describe. But it feels like something is bouncing in or around the steering column. Getting a really rough ride on...

    Anyone near DFW?!

    Hey y'all, I'm in the dfw area for the summer as an intern at TCU (getting my Masters at Austin Peay in Tennessee). Anywho, I made the 11 hour drive from Kentucky to Fort Worth and needless to say... something's jacked. I'm hearing/feeling a knock in the handling an having issues with a...

    Torsion Bar Cross member?

    The cross member is attached to bushings which are riveted on. Should be able to separate one without the other. Only concern is that the torsion bars might need reloading.

    Torsion Bar Cross member?

    How hard of a fix? It looks rather simple, but I've learned looks can be deceiving when it comes to the torsion bars.

    Torsion Bar Cross member?

    Well, I've always wondered why my Tahoe leaned low and to the passenger front. Went underneath and looked and the passenger side of the cross member is bent and the torsion bolt is barely screwed in. Looks like the original owners, the Jackson County Mississippi Sheriff's Office had a little too...

    Electrical Short

    Hey guys, My 02 Tahoe seems to have a short related to the radio. Its been a problem for a while, just finally getting around to fixing it. The Problem: When the volume gets in the higher end or when the radio is running while the Tahoe is not, the radio will lose power and cut off. It...

    Plasti dipped the Tahoe

    I used 5 gallons and no I used an old sprayer we had around the house. Definitely going with the dyc sprayer next time. And I'm doing the headlight housings black myself. The lights are only a year or two old and I don't see the need in paying $100 for a decent set when mine are fine. Thanks...

    Setup Questions - Help appreciated!

    I'm not wanting it to get the full height right now. The kit they advertise on here comes with keys. I'm just wanting a level and some new shocks. I'm only running 275's so I can't really go that high without looking stupid.
