03 Tahoe project

Sway bars and bump stops just came in. Waiting on front hubs and all this is going in. Majority in front. Bump stops and rear sway bar for the back. thinking 2" wheel spacers in the rear. Front track width will increase by 2" per side with spindles. They will only be for rear.

I am running the same lift setup. I went with 1.75" rear spacers to even out the track width. the 2" Will push it past the front. I also went high end with my wheel spacers. I got them from another forum member that had them made for his truck. Don't trust the cheap ones. What sway bars did you go with? I am in the same process of replacing all the bushings as well.

How do you like the drive feel with the wider stance? Any vibrations from the spacers? Do you have any pics?

Bell tech sway bars with hardware and bushings.

I will have to take some pictures. I may have some on photobucket that I can upload. I do notice that roads that have a very prevalent crown in them, the truck tends to wander back and forth. I am not 100% positive that it is related to the wider rear width because with the front spindles and rear spacers the difference is less than 1".

Switched out alternator this morning. We finished front end also. Put in 3" lift spindles, Bilstein 5100s, and belltech sway bars.

Looks awesome. 2wd trucks are cheap and easy to lift. That's why I like them so much.
