It wasn't the air lines per say but the fact that the shocks were tied together and allowing air to transfer between the shocks. Which I believe wasn't allowing either shock to dampen/compress as they should while driving. Now that they have their own line air is staying in each one as it should

Man that is a lot of chrome on the outer corners of that bumper. Makes the NBS bumpers look small. They wasted nothing up there did they?

I like both looks, but think I kinda like the billet more because it is different and not like every other Tahoe, Suburban or Silverado out there with the mesh. It appears to look more polished err maybe meaner?? And we all know that none of us like to be sheeple with our trucks.

:2cents:

Plus once you wrap or paint that front bumper, the emphasis will shift more to the grille tying in the wheels, rather than that chrome bumper. What do you think?

I also agree with that. So plan is now to sell the current billet and buy a whole matching set grille, bumper insert and lower bumper

I did get the billet grille in and installed. Looks good minus a few small things (eBay products lol). Only thing I'm not satisfied with is the lower bumper insert does not sit nice and flush on the ends. So I will be taking it back off sometime to grind down the back of the bars to make it sit more to my liking.

Here's a pic where you can kind see it but it's more for the fact that both these trucks look awesome in my driveway lol

Yep looks good. Interesting that you mounted it over the LTZ grille or was that just for test fit?

Do like how the billet ties in the reps nicely. And my friendly dig.....wrap that front bumper already...sheesh!! lol

LTZ grille?

The vinyl wrap doesn't match enough to make me want to wrap the front bumper. It's off just enough that it would annoy me. With it on the rear bumper it's broken up by the black surround so to anybody who doesn't know won't notice the difference. I'll get my other bumper painted one day. Just taking care of some other stuff first

Just busting chops about the bumper. Still looks great.

This pic here...maybe my eyes are playing tricks. Sorry the mesh grill underneath the billet....was just wondering what that was?
