are you starting on this now or is this just a wish list?

Starting this now. Already have my Dynamat and the Clear Corners and HIDS On the way. And as far as the drop, I only have 16x8 Wheels on 245/75/16 Tires. So it would be hard to drop to much.

You can lower the front with some drop keys for now to acheive the 2 inch drop.

Couple Things have changed since the last post....

I just had the new Tint put on recently. Went legal with it and put 35% On for now. I have to take it back anyway because there is a scratch in my tint from one of the installers.

Next thing is, I am going the other direction with the Hoe. I decided since there are so many lowered Tahoe's around me in the area I live at that I want to change it up a little.

So, I traded one of my Factory radio's for a set of Leveling Keys, and Just purchased a set of Spacers and Shocks to go along with those as well. Soon I will be also buying a set of 285/75/16 Nitto Terra Grapplers.

More Updates to come as the parts arrive!
