What'd yall pay for your trucks?

'96 2 door 2wd tahoe with 297K miles. A few mechanical issues but no rust or body damage. I think I paid a little much for it personally.. $2800 but I quickly found out how hard it was to find a 2 door 2 wd tahoe for sale so I had to jump on this one. It is white with Dark Blue interior. (I...

2 Door Tahoe Build 4/6 on Billets

Sold my 08 Sierra NNBS that I dropped 4/7 with yukon 20's b/c I drive my Z06 95% of the time.. I wanted a cheap truck since I mostly only use it to pull my boat to and from the lake and four wheelers on occasion. I just picked up this 96 2wd 2 door tahoe to mess around with. I've always liked...

Slammed my 92 suburban

I personally hate the 2-tones on the OBS. But I think it would look good if you got a custom pinstripe guy to do do something on the side and paint the wheels to match, I think a gunmetal grey majority for the pinstripe with some red and white accents would look pretty cool on that color. Ill...

Man I havent worked on the tahoe in over a week... I bought a ZR1 corvette while I was on vacation in Tampa so my focus has been directed at that sine I got back this weekend. Hopefully this week I can knock out the rear drop on the tahoe.

Help me spend money on my 1996 tahoe 2-door 2wd!

I will be using the shock extenders that came with my flip kit for the rear. I will be using air shocks that are almost the same length extended/compressed as the recommended DJM Drop shocks for use with the flip kit. I saw several people using air shocks with their flip kit on OBS but they were...

Thanks for the pics! looks like you didnt have to modify that crossmember at all, thats great news! Also did my research on the shocks for the truck today. Going to run 96 Astro shocks up front (32066) and MA702 Air shocks for the rear with the flip kit. I got the Monroe shocks spec book out...

Slammed my 92 suburban

I'm loving this suburban man! I'm surprised you decided to keep the roof rack, I am going to be taking mine off soon, also I agree with BHBurban it does look like your axle is off center. The axle saddles have offset holes drilled in them to located the rear-end and the hole is supposed to...

this is on a 2 door tahoe? the brace in the far left of the picture looks to be what I am talking about but on my 2 door tahoe it looks to me like the brace is right where my C-notch will go. I wont know 100% untill I get the flip kit installed so I can see where the rear-end will hit the...

Thanks for the Photo, I knew how to do that portion of the notch I was more concerned about where that crossmember attaches to the frame rail b/c it looks like that crossemember connects to the frame right where the C-Notch will go. I am thinking I will have to heavily notch the crossemember on...

Got some 18" Billet Specialties wheels this weekend and also started the drop. Going for a 4/6 or 5/7. Whats the best 18" tire size for this drop?
