Thinking about lifting my wifes 2010 or at least a leveling kit...or do I just drop it and drive it like I stole it!

Yeah I know but it isnt a 4wd but I wanted everyones input.

I have...3 inch body lift, levelling kit and 3 inch lift spindles. Did it completely for cosmetic reasons. I don't care about off-roading at all.

Thanks, just looking att the pic you posted. Ver'nice!

Thanks man...I know some people have their different views about lifting a 2wd but in my opinion it's cheaper and most importantly, it's your rig...You can do whatever you want with it.

Yeah, wife, 2 kids, 2 dogs and mucho bills leave me to work with what I've got...

i lifted my 98 2wd s10 it was way cheaper and easier
your probably going to be limited as far as selection goes
im guessing only 1 or 2 companys make a 2wd lift kit for a tahoe

There's actually several companies that make 2wd lifts. It was way cheaper for me to go the spindle, levelling kit and body lift route.

I agree 100% don't have time to off-road just enjoy the look. my tahoe is 2wd with a 2.5/1 leveling kit, and I'm thinking about putting a 3 inch RC lift on it.

Hey man! Long time no talk IMO if I can lower a 4wd you most certainly can lift a 2wd make it yours man

Anyone have any opinions on the difference between a 3" spindle lift vs a strut spacer lift?

 

[Burb!!]

Spindles don't affect the angles as bad as 2.5" or more levelling kit would...basically it's safe to run a 3 inch spindle but unsafe and detrimental to suspension if you run a 3" strut spacer.

Thanks for all the info. I know 07, new job, moved the family to Nashville, just not had a lot of web time.
