original plan was to lower it on oem 20's. couldn't find a deal on them and i needed tires bad. was rushed and got frustrated so i put in ford keys (no spacer) and bought 295/70/17 nitto tg's and 17x9 matte black liquid metal gatlins. (-10 offset 4.5" bs)
spring plan is remove the molding...
i have a stock PEWTER 2001 tahoe lt 4wd. i need new tires asap. (all 4 are bald and flat) i was thinking about doing this, but wanted to make sure it would work and look ok (combo and color).
my tahoe has exactly 2" higher in the rear with the rollpan on. so i'd leave the rear alone and do...
I did my rollpan and pillars first because I couldn't decide on what to do for wheels and suspension. I don't know if I should lift or lower it. In my Silverado I ran a 2/4 drop and a 3/1 lift. Basicly stock rake hurts my eyes, more so with these wheels....hahaha.
I'm bored here's a poll.
i've owned it just over a month and heres what i've done so far.
-rollpan and hidden hitch
-smooth rear window vents
-roof rack delete with trim covering holes
-debadged and removed pinstripes
-billet grill
plans are:
- 2/4 drop wanted, but i'll probably just drop the rear 2"
- (gm...
For anyone that wants to paint the stock vents, or replace them with Escalade or smooth ones. Here is how they come off.
On the top left there is a 7mm bolt and the bottom left is a metal tab/clip.
On the right there are 3 tabs that tuck under the side window.
Once you take the...

it says they are certain lot numbers on the belt, anyone dealt with this or know what they are?
I cleaned the engine bay and changed the plugs and wires. Back in 2001 was GM putting 100,000 miles plugs in? I'm wondering if there is 105,000 on the old AC Delco plugs or if they had been changed by the previous owner.
Anyways here is what a old .060 gapped plug looks like next to a .038...
The Tahoe I bought has a tiny bit of the GM knock sometimes when I start it up cold and then it goes away pretty fast. It didn't knock at all the day I bought it. (go figure)
Should I be running high mileage oil in it since it has 105,000 on it? i've always just used valvoline 5w30 in my stuff.
Nothing fancy, but I wanted to see what claying would do with some basic products on the 01' I just bought. The paint is so smooth now, I couldn't believe it. It's cool to see the dirt coming off and onto the white clay bar.
-Meguiars Clay Bar
-Meguiars Deep Crystal Polish (front their...
is the plastic skid plate put there to catch oil and make a mess when doing a oil change....lol. i'm going to trim the back 2 inches off of it before i put it back on.
but really do they even do anything? they're plastic!
stock 2001 lt stereo, non bose and it sounds pretty bad. can i just change some speakers and make it sound better. i don't want to change the stock cd player.
is it hard to replace the carpet in these trucks. my 01 is clean looking, but the previous owner had a damn wolf dog and when it gets hot it smells a hint of wet dog or something. i already have shampooed it and used auto fabreeze on it.
how do they come off on my 01'? on my 03' silverado there were sheet metal nuts on the back, but i don't feel any on my hoe.
i need to take it out to get it painted with my other stuff.
i have everything just sitting in the garage. i want to keep my spare tire with my street scene urathane rollpan and sir micheals hidden hitch. looking under there, i don't see how that could fit with keeping a spare. where can i get a relocator, or won't that even work with the hitch under...
2001 Tahoe LT.
Aren't they suppose to be under the 2nd row seats? I found the jack under the sub in back.
Sorry for the stupid question, but I need to remove my spare.
i bought the street scene smoothies and i'm trying to test fit and drill them, but i can't get the stock ones to come free. i took the 1 bolt out and pull like hell, but those things are clipped in there good.
did you guys use screwdrivers or something? i don't want to pry against the side...
Can you guys post your window tint and what % it is. What is factory on the rear windows like 17% or something right.
Anyways post your window tint so I can see how it meshes with the factory rear windows.
i broke the plastic piece that helps hold the shifter linkage in place by the trans pan. so now i can't put it into park or reverse unless i get under the truck and do it manually, because it falls out of the bracket.
anyone have to replace any part of that linkage before?
