Just wondering what I should get to drop my tahoe a lil bit. After reading for a while it seems a belltech 2/3 drop is the way to go for what I want but just want to make sure. I ride 24s in the summer and stock 17s in the winter, that wont matter will it? Here is a pic of what it looks like now( and needs dropped bad!) Thanks for any info provided!

The link you posted is for a 00-06, I have an 07, Don't I need a different kit? Does the newer models make a diffference?

Wow, that was quick, thanks! I was looking to get this in a few months so I will give you a heads up when I need it. Another question if you don't mind me asking. I wouldn't mind trying this myself, but am not too mechanically inclined. Is this that hard to do? Don't get me wrong, I'm no idiot, I just don't want to try to tackle something that is too much for me. This would be done in my driveway btw. Thanks for your help!

Tony, I think I am ready for the drop kit. Last questions I promise.

1: How will this ride? I'm not looking for the smoothest perfect ride, but I want it like I would have just got it brand new. Is there anything else I should do/get to ensure this.

2: How quick is shipping, I am gonna be on vaca on the 23-29 of this month and that would give me plenty of time to try this myself.

3: I just register on tbssowners.com and purchase from their right?

4: Does it matter if I go with a 3 or 4 inch drop. I just want it level with the front. Thanks for your patience and all your help!

the 2/3-4 kit rides great if you can do it get the rear belltech street performance shocks its adds 130 but you get new shorter shocks.

shipping from california takes 3-5 business days depending on how far you are away.

the one thing for the rear is that the springs are adjustable. usually with spindles and rear springs and 1 inch spacer the rear sits abotu 1/2 inch higher than the front which is perfect.

no problem if you want the rear shocks just email me I will have to send a custom paypal invoice but if you want the kit only and no rear shocks you can order directly from the site.
