Got this 95 Tahoe 2wd, 4dr. to pull my 4800 lbs camper. I had tried to pull it with a 96 Kota, but that truck had too short a wheel base, so was too light up front. I like the Tahoe, comfortable to drive on long trips, and not too bad on gas right now gettin bout 12 to 13.5 miles to a gal. Needs a little tlc as check engine light keeps coming on, runs great, but that light bugs me. Ac compressor locked up, rear hatch needs new seals, takes on water. Thinking of doing the 14 bolt to 3.73s or rering and pinnion to 3.73s. It's got 3.42s now.

3.73's will make a ton of difference. Welcome to the community, go any pictures?

If your going to be towing you'll want the 14 bolt

No pics yet. Am leaning more towards the 14 bolt. Not much difference in cost of new gears and master pinion set compared to just bolting in a 14 bolt. Can get a 14 bolt from local yard for 275.00. Ring and pinion set 269.00 + 169.00 master kit. Of coarse will need 6 lug wheels with the 14 bolt swap.

You can get the 6 lug rear and do the 2500 light duty rotor swap to get 6 lug on all 4 corners.
