Yep, what they said...lol I did a pie cut on frame, most people de hump or buy custom arms. But like he said, MOOG ball joints help a lot.. the k1500 upper joints are same as c1500 but have a notch in them that will keep them from binding.

You can lay on a stock size tire or 265/35/22 without tubbing the firewall, but you can't drive down really low, roughly a 29 in tall tire.

I know this is an old post but Hope's you're still here lol I'm just wondering can I lay frame in any tire combo and keep the stock fender wells

Short version? No. You'll need to remove, raise, or replace them.

So I can keep them but raise them I'm going for as factory look as possible

Your wheel and tire size will dictate how much clearance you need.
What are you going to run?

I think I'm running 265/45/22 right now I'd have to double check

The inners are the least of your obstacles to laying frame on a Tahoe. Much more involved than a truck.

bagging tahoe limited

i wanna bag my tahoe limited and had a question bout the setup in the rear im gonna run a 4 link, c-notch and most likely tub the rear end and cut the floorboard and all that fun stuff. but in the front what needs to be cut and/or moved outta the way to tuck the wheels real nice to lay that low?

I know the rear takes a lot more but I'm ls swapping it and when the front end is apart I'm doing all I can to get it ready for future projects
