here are a few pics...
2018 Tahoe LT ( premium smooth rides suspension )
the original intent was to lower the vehicle to a level stance, slightly above the tire.
this is a MaxTrac 2" front spindle w, 4" rear coil and shock extender20210404_112325.jpg 20210404_112632.jpg

the decision was the rear was to low for a leveled look, the coils measure upon install at 5" drop...knowing they would settle slightly, this ad to be corrected. after a few trips around town, i decided to add a 1.5" rear lift spacer ( had it on hand for another project)20210404_170509.jpg
over all, this made the look we were after. this setup is a 22x10 on a 305/40/22
the ride is as expected, more feed back and a slightly stiffer rear ride (not harsh, but sporty) and could probably use a new shock ( i could easily manipulate one handed)

It is back in the garage as I type...

We decided to swap the rear combo for a different setup....going from a 4" maxtrac coil (that got 5") and 1.5" lift spacer on junk stock shocks, to the current belltech 3" coil and nitro drop shocks.

The ride is far nicer..
Waiting on his bowtie to dry, and will shoot some more pics tomorrow. The rear is slightly higher than the previous but hoping for a 1/4 - 1/2" settle.
