Right rear was 34" exactly and left rear measured 33 and 3/4 with the 1" spacer. Both fronts measured in at 33 3/8 with the 2" spindles. I don't have a measurement right now with the 2" spacer, but I can check on that in the morning.
What kind of shocks are you running? You should be around 34 1/2 with the 1 inch spacer. That's where I will be once I get my Belltech shocks put on. I'm running 275-55-20 tires.

Something just don't add up cause you would have been squatting in the rear end if you would have left the 1 inch spacer out.

Jason like I've been telling you once you put belltechs in will come down. Also depends on where his front keys are set I've seen them vary

The option package you have the shocks are keeping it up so don't worry once you change shocks it will come down. I've seen it many times on the 00 to 06 tahoes since they came out

I just don't want mine to come down to 34 on one side and 33 3/4 on the other with a 1 inch spacer in the rear. I'm at 33 1/2 in the front with spindles and I want a 1 inch rake on mine. Since I loosened up my shocks the other day and it dropped to 34 1/2 on rear springs and the spacer then I should be ok. I don't believe the Belltech shocks affect ride height like the stock shocks I have do. I'm running 275-55-20 tires.

Norcal can tell you more about "why" the measurements are what they are. I can only show and display the results. My tires are 285/50/20 for reference.

He's not running your option package rear shock You keep going on measurements and comparing then to yours and you can't. You need to change your shocks.

If we have the same Belltech rear springs and Belltech rear shocks shouldn't we have the same measurements?

there are variances with the axle mounts that ive seen. Upper crossmember is the same but some 00-06 tahoes the lower mounts are thicker so stick up more which in turn give back of the truck higher look.
