My guess on price would be $100 and can special order from summit racing. Part # FT20362BK & FT20299. That's lower links and bushings. Swap out stock ones and then use zone adjustable uppers to set correct drive angle.

This is the kit I would be going with if I were to go above a 4" lift. Cant wait to see what the end product looks like. Good info on here as well.

Dropped her off yesterday at the shop, they should be working on her as I type this. My only question is what the total height of the vehicle will be after lifting, I'm about to buy a parking pass for school and the parking deck next to my building is $600 so buying one and not fitting would be tragic.

That may be close. My Silverado with the RCX 7.5, 35s and 1.25 body lift is 7'1. Your roof rack will add some for sure

All I can do is hope that when I measure when I pick her up tomorrow that it's under 7 foot. Or I'll be walking my happy ass to class

Mine sits at 7'3"-4" and cleared a posted 7'6" garage pretty tight. The other 8' is a breeze. Need to lift mine more so I'm limited to one garage in town ha!

That's how I am most places in Houston. Everything is a parking garage and very little outdoor parking (mall, Drs office, etc). Can be a pain in the ass at times but I'd rather be driving what I am than something else.

Damn it looks good now man. Wish the wheel wells on Tahoe's weren't so square or I would justify getting this exact lift myself and throwing some 37's or 38's on it lol. What do your CV angles look like now? And does it sit level front and back?

My potato quality picture doesn't do it justice, I agree the square lines suck for getting big tires in but aesthetically I like it. I'll get pics of all the angles tomorrow, there is a half inch spacer under the strut to make the front end a inch higher than the back. But on flat ground it's not enough to tell

Looks great from first pics of it! Angles should be pretty flat. Could stretch front up some more with UCAs and coil spacer the rear. I'm interested to see how the rear tire lines up in the fender well.

Got a couple pics, angles seem fine as far as my knowledge takes me (reading and seeing what people on here don't find acceptable) they might even be different than what they were with the lift because of the half inch spacer under the strut. The rear doesnt seem noticeably changed in the back. Here's a few pics. If I missed any pics lemme know I took everything I could think of lol

Angles look decent. Just order some rcx UCAs and it will be fine. Lift looks nice though! Great stance and look. How those 1.5" spacers even up track width?

Lift does look amazing man,I know I said I'm not too crazy about the wheel wells and the space on big lifts, but I could definitely see this lift growing on me lol. Only change I would make would be to get a tire that's a bit wider. But otherwise to me, looks like one of the better lifted Tahoe's I've seen.

Thanks! I'll order some nice UCAs down the road after I get a nice "oh shit" fund goin, but the track width appears even, it's hard to tell. But IMO the tires are too thin and wider ones would make it look nicd, however they look good and will do fine until they wear down.
