    '99 Tahoe - Expedition Build!

    Some BIG updates this week. Yesterday I received my package from Viking Offroad - photos to follow tomorrow! This is the highest quality recovery gear I have ever seen, I'm blown away from the fit & finish so far of everything. This gear is our lifeline for when we need recovery, so i will...

    Does my 99 yukon 4x4 not have a Steering Stabilizer?

    +1. From the factory, our OBS did not come with steering stabilizers. However, to add one, they're all bolt on. Check the web (i.e. youtube) and there may be a how-to for installation. Also, for IFS steering stabilizers can be beneficial, esp for larger tires and reducing bump steer...

    '99 Tahoe - Expedition Build!

    some more progress over the past few days... The Bilstein 5150's with their heavier valving were simply not valved heavy enough for this rig. So I went with application specific 5100's (they're for lifted rigs) and they are awesome. I had them on the highway today and they absorbed bumps...

    Save my Chev Tahoe

    something to consider - after the shop straightens the frame, it might be worthwhile doing some of this work yourself...that shop is going to charge you a fortune to source parts and install them; some of the work is pretty straightforward you could complete with basic tools. Where in NY? I...

    '99 Tahoe - Expedition Build!

    When I first spoke to him about it and he told me the price, I was pretty excited. It took a little over a month b/c i was the first OBS, but he kept the measurements so definitely hit him up...quality of tubing and heim joint are really nice...plus the measurements were spot on...

    '99 Tahoe - Expedition Build!

    they are amazing - somewhere between $200 & $250 (can't remember, i've had them for a few months) - IMHO worth every penny.

    '99 Tahoe - Expedition Build!

    someone tried to explain it to me once on why the veins point inward...but i still didn't understand their logic b/c it made more sense to me that they point outward.... :emotions122: -

    '99 Tahoe - Expedition Build!

    That's what I thought too!! When I installed these last year I was baffled by how Power slot recommended the left and right side. So i called them up and how I have them installed is the right way!

    '99 Tahoe - Expedition Build!

    thanks guys - it's getting there!! I finished up my Synergy Suspension ball joints yesterday and today I'm on to a new EGR valve (OEM shorted) and then wiring up my dual battery setup. Supposedly the Group 34 batteries (larger capacity then 78) will fit in the second tray (I have a 2nd...

    '99 Tahoe - Expedition Build!

    Going out of order a little bit today, but here are pics from the RCX install we completed last month. The good - fit and finish were solid and directions were spot-on The bad - NO WAY CAN YOU INSTALL IN 8hrs - two guys who have done this before on a Tahoe with air tools and a hydraulic lift...

    bump-stop / 'jouncer'

    I ordered "F" - Mitty mentioned the Z71 jouncers were smaller. I have a lifted rig and I actually want to lower the front a little bit more, so these are perfect for me. B/c they are smaller, it always me to decrank the front more before i hit them (allowing the shocks to do more of the work)...

    better mpgs?

    When i was in Australia, it was really interesting at the pump...% of ethanol in their gas ranged from 0-10 depending on the station. I'd be driving down the road and see what I thought was a good price, only to find out it had 10% ethanol. If the US boosts to 20% ethanol, i'm going to...

    '99 Tahoe - Expedition Build!

    I've seen guys do that...my only concern is that the compressor will then be exposed to the elements and if you go through water, it gets wet. Some of the compressors are designed to take the beating, but i personally like keeping my dry....but the tank, i'd def put there and put a small piece...

    '99 Tahoe - Expedition Build!

    Yes, the cover fits over it perfectly when i first measured before mounting...getting back under the truck on Monday and will test it out now its mounted for good. We're not mounting a tank before the trip, but when i get back and have extra time, the air tank is going where the spare used to...

    if anyone is interested, I also have a brand new AC Delco Master Cylinder for a 3/4t hydroboost. There is one flaw...where the brake line plugs into one of the ports, it's scored. I have not tested it to see if it leaks, so I'll make a deal....if you buy it and it leaks, just send it back and...

    '99 Tahoe - Expedition Build!

    The venerable 14bolt is in and so far so good!! I only ran the truck on jack stands, but tomorrow it's road tested. The 14bsf mod is a piece of cake if you are retaining the stock springs...but i definitely was slowed down by mine. This thing looks awesome under the truck! I POR'd it...
