It's been a while since I have poated anything, I did introduce myself months back in the noob section. Anywho on with the truck and info!
96 4dr Tahoe, 4/6 drop, w/24x10 Archers on 275/30/24 Wanli's
Obviously the wheels are too wide for the drop, so I will be building tubular upper and lower control arms 1" shorter than stock. I will also be raising the front wheels to "laid out height" so I can tub the firewall. I will also de-hump the frame, install a 2dr tahoe or suburban gas tank behind the axle. Drive it static next all next summer, and bag it next winter if the world doesn't end.
The tahoe without wheels
The wheels on the tahoe
The wheel sits flush with the inside of the fender, right where the factory roll begins.
The tear down
My control arm goodies, bushings, sleeves, inserts, upper balljoint plates, and machined balljoint cups. Square tubing for the control arm jig, and 1.5" dom tubing is next to the truck. Parts courtesy of Keith @ Nfamus Air Suspension.
I will have to wait to build the control arms till I come back home, headin out to Pa. tonight for two weeks.
