    Seat replacement options for 99 tahoe 4X4 LT

    Hi, I am looking at probably grabbing some replacement cloth seats from a 2001 Chevy tahoe (not sure on if LS or LT) It is a full fold down seat. Would it fit my 99 tahoe without any need to drill, etc? They are asking $250 for the seat (parting out car).

    '99 Tahoe 4x4 Issues related to maintenance of ball joints

    Also posted on Tahoe Forum. So I finally got around to getting some quotes with itemized lists. I told each shop that I needed pitman and idler arms replaced along with both control arms (which each come with their own socket joints). I asked for Moog Problem Solver everything, but Moog...

    '99 Tahoe 4x4 Issues related to maintenance of ball joints

    Alright, a little background...I am not a mechanic and never will be. I have done some research both here and the sister site (Tahoe Forum) where this will be posted as well, verbatim. After an 800 mile trip, I had an oil change done to my '99 Tahoe and discovered that the boots were split...
