This build was over on Tahoeforum but since it's not there anymore I will continue it over here.
I bought this Tahoe back in January. I own a bodyshop and it came in wrecked on the right side. The owner hit ice and side swiped a guard rail. I picked the truck up for $1300.00. I'm not one to keep anything stock so the mods began. I stripped the whole thing down and repainted it black. The interior was stripped out and the floor and inner structure was sprayed with Cascade VB-1X damping compound. It keeps vibrations down to a minimum. The seats and trim panels were replaced with ones from a 99 Escalade. Brand new carpet. Stereo was replaced with an Alpine 9866, MA500 Amp, Pioneer Premier shallow mount 8" in back and 10" up front. Door speakers are Infinity 6022. Tweeters in the A pillar trim. The right front suspension was damaged so it was replaced. While I was at it I replaced all of the ball joints and links. All 4shocks were replaced with RMX Monotubes. 20" Arelli Jovan wheels with 305/50R20 Toyo AT tires. Replaced the chrome grille with a painted one and added a T Rex billet insert. Black headlamps, park lamps and corner lamps. Smoked LED tails. 2000 Limited ground effects, 99 Denali rear bumper and roof rack (not installed yet). SS front bumper cover. Thats about it for now.
It's been being worked on between busy times so progress is a bit slow at this point. I'd give it another week or two and it should be complete.
