    2 Door Tahoe Build 4/6 on Billets

    Ya the roof rack will be coming off soon as well as a cowl hood and GMC front and a smoothie bumper. I am on Tahoeyukonforum and I posted in the 91-99 section asking for help on the crossmember.. Thats really the only part I am worried about but It is not the only body support back there so I...

    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...

    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...

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

    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...

    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...

    Looks like I will have to ditch my corvette wheel idea, I held a couple different sets up to the truck and they just didnt look right on the truck, I think they would look perfect on a smaller blazer but the tahoe is just too big for the smaller wheels. I'd like to go with some 20" TTII's but we...

    wheel back spacing questions!

    hey bud I got out there last night and messed around with my CCW's on the truck. Unfortunately I am going to have to ditch this idea b/c the tires are TINY for the truck and I really do not want to be swapping tires on my CCW's bc we have no good tire shops around here, I have had issues with...

    wheel back spacing questions!

    I didn't get out to the shop last night to play with the wheels. I'm not sure I will have time tonight or not but I will definitely post up my results when I get them. I am thinking it will be somewhere in the 1.5" range

    IDK man, I am going to test fit some of my C5 wheels tonight so I can let you know what I come up with. I was going to test fit some CCW's and some OEM C5 corvette magnessium wheels. the only thing I am concerned about is SewLow58 told me most spindles push the front wheels out 1/2" unless I buy...

    Ya I am going to get adapters to go from 5x5 to 5x4.75, I just have to fit a couple different wheels up to the truck tonight to decide which thickness I need to go with. I wish I had some stock 5x5 wheels so I could lower the truck then measure for the spacers. I think I have decided to for...

    Ive never dealt with that site before, I found sets on ebay for $90-$100 shipped, Ill probably go that route. I have two sets of CCW's for my Z06 so I am going to mess around with my spare set tonight and figure out what thickness I need and order them tonight hopefully.
