gzes you beat me by a minute

 

[Immortalmort]

Very Well, I know 16's won't fit on the 99-06 Generation, and haven't seen 15's on a tahoe... ever in my area. I stand corrected

 

[capeguy97]

well i gave the yukon a second lookover today at my work thinking im gunna buy it this weekend.... everything was good, then saw the rear of the frame was crusty, and soft enough to push pieces out And what size offset rim would i need to fit 15s? i really dont wanna have to buy tires. im still motivated to get a 2 door

 

[Gzes]

Frame is rotted out? I would personally walk away and come down dirty south and get a non rusted 2dr

 

[Immortalmort]

Any framework required, walk away. Just my opinion

Cape97 did you see the green 99 2 door on in nh for sale ?

If your talking about the one for $3100 in hampstead, that was nice right down to the color.

 

[art442]

The guy says it was a parks rec truck . Did they do anything special for police tahoes ?

 

[SunlitComet]

yes 145A alt, 235/70r15 v-rated tires on 15" steel wheels, 2wd only, 3.08 gear ration with limited slip(likely their g80 locker), and curb weight 4800lbs..

 

[capeguy97]

yea i saw that. i dont wanna sound picky or anything but im looking for one with leather haha

 

[SunlitComet]

then you want the lt trim then.

 

[capeguy97]

well i found another today. its a little far off from what i wanted but its pretty sweet. 1992 chevy fullsize blazer. 6 inch suspension lift 3 inch body lift on 38 inch tsl swampers. im goin back to look again tomorrow. a guy at my work knew somebody and i may be getting an awesome deal on it.

 

[SunlitComet]

that is some seriously outdated truck. however i believe the front axle was a full floater. cames with bi and 241 t-case and a 4l60 or nv3500 stick.

 

[capeguy97]

im not too experienced with all the chevy parts. is any of it any good? i have a feeling the rear ends gunna have a locker. and is full floater a bad thing? sorry to sound stupid

 

[SunlitComet]

full floater is strong but kinda of maintnancecy. the axle tubes carry all the weight. you can change and axle shaft with tires on and on the ground. changing bearings is a little more work. but if looking for a sand box toy it is ideal. 1992 should also give you more option for smog legal upgrades. but remember it still starts 210hp. the 1996 vortec started at 255. seems like most of the work has been done for you and you can always put in another engine. also the 1992 has the older interior.

 

[capeguy97]

yea the interior is the only thing i have a real problem with. its kinda hard to pass this one up. whole frame is painted. spotless. guy bought it from a kid that needed drug money for dirt cheap and decided he didnt want it so hes selling it cheap. are the tbi motors any good? im thinking i wanna do vortec heads and a nice intake manifold. is it even worth it to do that? and i looked at it yesterday again and started it up. i think it has a mild cam too.

 

[SunlitComet]

they are good just different heads, fuel, exhaust and induction system. would cost more to achieve a vortec power band then to just find a oem vortec vortec. besides you can have fun painting your own frame. it yours choice but would like to see you look around more to see if you can do better.

 

[capeguy97]

there isnt too much more out there this clean. the northeast sucks for finding clean 20 year old trucks. ive heard throttle body injection is good too. im not looking to make a bunch of power. just enough to get out of my own way with 38s
