Maybe we can get together on some chrome TBSS wheels in the future.

Well I got the Belltech shocks put on today and it dropped the back down 1.5 inches and rides very stiff. The front is at 33 5/8 and the rear is at 34. I was hoping the rear to be 34 1/2 cause I was at 35 1/2 with the Nivomat shocks on it. Looks like I will be taking the Belltechs off tomorrow and putting the Nivomats back on and pulling the 1 inch spacer.

Yes you need to do free travel mod thats why its stiff. 3 inches or more i always cut bracket off frame. Just buy 1.5 spacers on ebay and cut bracket off frame. Theres no way its going to ride ride becuase you have no travel in rear.

I'm getting some popping in the front end of my 02 Tahoe since I lowered it. All I did was put 2 inch belltech spindles on the front. It is worse when turning sharply with the brakes on or if the front end is put in a bind. Might go a week with no popping and then all of a sudden start again and then quit for a week. I stood on the running board to wipe the top off and something popped. I have re-tightened everything 2 times. Any ideas?

Did you check balljoints and tie rods.

yes I did. I even went outside and stood on running boards and had it rocking from side to side and could make a popping noise.
