02 Tahoe Z71 Suspension

[fernandodagoat]

Looks like CST full throttle suspension and cognito are the only main ones who still makes uniball control arms for the 99-06 cst being the cheapest
cognito uca i found on eBay for 600$ for ball joint style and 700$ for the uniball ones but i like how cst has the gussets and brace on their arms and they have caps over the joints too I believe.
My buddy’s daily driven his uniballs for 5-6 years no problems I’ve had mine for maybe 4 years or so and no issue I just keep em clean and spray some teflon types crc lube on em I got them because I was tired of replacing ball joints and scalloped out

I looked at the CST site and says it only fits 2WD models and will not fit torsion bar front ends. (I'm pretty sure I have torsion bar.)

It should be the same control arm my buddy used 4wd cognito uca on his 2wd if you doubt it though just call cst or get the cognito ones
Here’s a pic he has the torsion bar front end but 2wd

He was happy with them but he wished he would’ve spent the extra 100$ for the uniballsand here’s a pic of my setup

Those are for a 2500hd and are different you want the ones in the link I sent you
And I’ve heard good things about the Viking coil overs that guy at atomic fab sells I’d say go for it or if you want something different you can buy the conversion kit and then just get your own shocks (fox,king,etc)
But again I’ve heard good things on those Viking coil overs

Here’s that eBay link for the cognito arms
