New Guy New OBS Tahoe

[CO Tahoe]

New guy from Colorado here. Bought my first Chevy truck 21 years ago and have had about 10 different ones since then. Currently own 2.

I have been lurking and reading everything as I drool over all the nice trucks on here for a while. My daily driver for myself and my wife and kids for the last 5 years has been a 90 K5 Blazer. 5.7 TBI 4 inch lift on 35's. I spent so much money keeping this roadworthy and its time for more repairs. I am lucky to have a wife that loves big trucks too and she drives it every day. So we decided this time to put the money in a new truck.

We found this and bought it a couple days ago. I'm really excited about it.

97 Tahoe. 5.7, 6 inch pro comp lift,3 inch body lift. 37x13.5 Dick Cepek tires on Dick Cepek wheels. Aftermarket bumper,grille and headlights. It needs a few repairs like front shocks and the front finders trimmed for more clearance. I have found answers to some problems here already just by reading the forums and im planning to post a few questions I need help with. The knowledge here is amazing and Im looking forward to learning everything I can about my new Tahoe .Thank you tahoeyukon forum.

Welcome buddy both rides are badass. I also had a couple k5s and they where nice. So any more mods for the hoe? Maybe aux lights mounted from a basket? Interior mods?

Thanks for the welcome everyone.

Still trying to decide on everything I am going to do. I like your basket. It would be nice to get the spare 37 out of the back but its going to be hard as hell to get it up and down. Not sure about that one. I have off road lights in my front bumper that work but I need to figure out how to aim them. One goes down one goes sideways.


I have a CB I want to hide in the front compartment on the console. Hard part is going to be the antenna. I need to get some speakers in the rear somewhere too. It came with a nice stereo with remote control but only front door speakers.

It has remote start but the hood pin is broken, I want to get that working.

I'm planning on posting lots of pictures.
