I did an almost complete 4x4 delete yesterday. Minus the transfer case.

Also had to replace the passenger wheel hub assembly since the cv axle hub nut wasn't holding the trashed on together anymore. Still went with a 4x4 assembly in case I decide to go back to it.

Got a few things done today.
Did the plug wires with the fiberglass boots. Wasn't too bad. And the fit was nice.

Then I installed those anti theft plates. Wasn't really hard, but man! What a pita! If you guys do this, make sure you wear some gloves. The metal, all of it, is pretty sharp inside the door.

I also finally installed the bounce/bump stops in the rear. Much shorter than the stockers, but I'm taking your word for it @Red Rocket :DGot a lot done today, but I didn't get a chance to install that little cubby behind the center console.

Let's not.
Let's
I'm only asking because I'm looking on eBay and all I can find that ship to me are $40 and then another $40 in shipping.
I'm seeing what others cost is, I see most people buy signal housings for $30 shipped and I can only find $80 shipped for basic lights. It never use to be this bad till I moved back. Not sure what changed but almost every company does not ship to Alaska. I'll pull up pages and pages and maybe one listing ships to AK.
Don't get me started on tail lights and headlight packages...$200+
It's pretty frustrating.

Know anyone in the states? How about if you have it shipped to them, then they ship it to you? I've never shipped to Alaska before, but it can't be as expensive as these companies charge us. A lot of the companies like to make some extra $$ on shipping.

If you ever hit those bump stops, you'd better stop and check your shorts 'cause you've just launched your Tahoe and landed HARD! Or if you lower it, in which case you need to do the free travel mod and put even smaller ones in, bolted directly to the frame.

Well, that's a different thing, cheapest set SHIPPED TO ALASKA!!! I don't care for the cheap Chinese knock-offs, they're a dime a dozen. I didn't pay too much for Spyder LED's but I don't live in Alaska. Your problem I'm sure, especially on EBay, is the combined cost of the product and the shipping. EBay sellers do that to cut down on what would be a loss to them to ship there free and then have things returned. I'd look on Amazon myself.

Shipping to Alaska is expensive unless it's something real small. I sell a lot of stuff on EBay and it's a whole different ballgame shipping there. Might as well be shipping to Europe.

No no no I was asking to see the difference between states and what I see because eBay automatically uses my zip code. Wanna see how much I am really getting ripped off, using cheapest as a reference.
And like I said it wasn't like this before. When I had my Silverado (from '09-'11) I was ordering housings and other big parts every week and they were all free shipping. Not like gas prices have gone up, they've actually gone down except Alaska didn't get the memo.

I literally ******* despise this place with all my heart and soul. I have a year and a half left till I move back to the states.:Angry:

Nice. Denali bumper is a clean look for sure
What bulbs do you use for your tails ?
Thanks.

I have just the stock bulbs in mine. They are plenty bright for me, I've followed it several times when my wife was it and I had no issues with light output.

I got mine from eBay not Amazon but they are most likely the same.
