Hi-Lift Jack Mount Location?

[AquinoSteven]

I agree, NBS looks way better all "tacted" out then a NNBS but either way the both look awesome. Creeto has an awesome lifted NNBS that he actually uses haha

To each his own I guess, I just prefer the non-sloppy clean look. Old school throw back Tahoes can pull it off a little better, I just don’t think it looks right on a NNBS in my opinion. However, Creeto is an exception to that for sure.
I do have to question anyone who says the old school NBS is a better looking truck though.
AquinoSteven, is that your green rig? That thing looks pretty serious, did you custom build that bumper?

 

[AquinoSteven]

Nah, I wish, both trucks are off Z71tahoe suburban forum. The black truck has a TJM bumper that is no longer in production. You would be VERY lucky if you could find a used one. One the other forum we almost got the company to bring them back but we couldnt get enough people.

The Green truck has a ranch hand with welded in fishing rod holders. Its just been rhino lined

wait...who said anything about it being "poser"?

I was the one who said something about being a poser.
I decided to delete it so I didn’t sound like a dick. When I originally posted to the OP, all I could think about was this dude I used to go to school with who had a body lifted Ford Explorer with a jack bolted to the rear bumper. That POS never even left gravel let alone mud. Anyways, I apologize if I offended anyone who has a jack mounted on their rigs. They are nice to have and can look cool if its on the right truck such as the pics posted above with the roof racks. I really did not mean to sound so opinionated, I had a ****** day and was talking out of my ass a little. I wish I had a pic to post of this dude Explorer though, you guys would crack up.

ohhh I see....understandable lol...I'd probly agree with you

Haha i knew those pics would work. 98% of the trucks on here are lowered so i think you guys get used to seeing lowered Tahoes. I thought id freshin it up a bit with some lifted hoes.

 

[puckhead]

Its all good Conor, its hard explain stuff on the internet lol. Especially when there's no context or background knowledge of what you were thinking of

I like those pics a lot Steven, makes me want to lift mine even more. Thanks for sharing!

 

[AquinoSteven]

Do it!!!!!!!!. Im waiting to lift mine. I got everything but i dont wanna pay twice for an alignment. Hopefully this week.

And yes more pics. We need more lifted tahoe over here!!!

 

[Conor]

Those look fun. Its been a while since I have had a lifted ride.

Whoa I'm glad every thing has settled down. I didn't want to start a war here! Haha

I'm not worried about looks here, I'm concerned about functionality. Like I said, I want to have the hi-lift available when I take the boat or jet ski out and launch it from a sandy beach...or if I ever decide to do something stupid with my slightly lifted rig. I can't put the lift inside the truck cause I usually have my dog in the back end (w/ 3rd row seats out) and other friends in the back seat. I don't want to put a cage on the roof cause I use a roof box for skis/snowboard and camping/boating gear (yes I actually use my truck for doing a lot of things...what they are made for) This isn't something I would keep on all of the time because I know it won't look the best, the rain here in Seattle will rust the shit out of it, and I don't want it coming lose and damaging anything on my truck.

I looked at the factory roof rails for a quick second and I'm gonna take a trip to a hardware store to see what I can do. Either get something to wrap around the rails or I may be able to drill a small hole for a bolt-mount type design.

Connor thanks for the compliment! I'll get some more pictures up on here soon. I'm just about done moding my tahoe...
