2007 Tahoe LTZ Build Thread.

Brought the bikes to the hanger this morning so I can start the rebuilds. Figured I’d snap a shot of the tow rig as well. [emoji854]

Sorry guys, I’ve been MIA for a while. But the old Hoe is still my daily. At about 447,000 miles now. Got a new transfer case & transmission installed at 419k. Just did my rack & pinion this past week, and also did the NorCal mod on the front fenders to squeeze 285/60/20 BFG KO2’s. No more rubbing after the NorCal mod, I still plan on getting either leveling struts (rough country) or a slight 3”-4” lift eventually. Here’s how the old lady is sitting now. Years ago, found a secondhand Buckstop replacement bumper, & I also found a used truck vault from an ex-police officer (in Dallas for dirt cheap) so that’s been securing all my tools, I did add some air-ride helper airbags in the rear springs as well to offset the nearly 1,000lbs now over the rearend. I do a lot of mechanic work (auto/aircraft/moto) and handyman work, so I like having all my tools available at any given time.

I’ve been swamped at the airport with work, but have slowly been adding stuff to the old hoe. Just scooped this KENWOOD DMX905S Carplay receiver from a friend. Also has the KENWOOD DRV-N520 dashcam integrated too.

The build looks great. How did you do the console mods for radio and switches? I also have an 07 LTZ. Great work!

It’s a Havis console. I’m pretty sure this design is discontinued, I think my order was probably one of the last they manufactured. Your best luck is to find one used or old stock somewhere. I’ll try to scramble up a part number for you.
