2wd lift on 01 tahoe

[Bigturbo93]

I have a 01 tahoe and it's 2wd I've been looking for a lift but can't seem to find any I want to look like this but don't know what I have to do also looking for shocks thanks in advance I'm new here

keys, spacers, 5100s and cut the heck out of the front bumper

Just go with alittle bit smaller tire and you won't have to cut bumper

So the keys would be a leveling kit right and the spacers would be for the rear? And can sobody send me a link to the 5100s for my application I have looked and can't seem to find the right ones for the front and rear ?

Here is a link to @01Konvict build thread of his old nbs. If you're wanting to run 33" tires then you'll need 3-4" lift spindles or and actual lift kit. I had 3" lift spindles with 33s and it rubbed at full lock.

ebay keys and spacers, since your 2wd lift spindles too. Page 11 of my old thread has part numbers for shocks. To run a x12 wide wheel you will have to cut the bumper well into the steel section. Personally I don't like that wide of a rim unless its lifted. The stance doesn't fit to me so I would look into some x10s which will help minimize how much chopping of fenders you need to do up front.

Thanks 01konvict I read on your thread about z71 coils and something about sway links?

 

[01Konvict]

No problem dude! Just trying to help. Z71 coils help even up the ride with lift keys and spindles. Added bonus is some height gains, varies between 1/4-3/4". You need longer jeep sway bar links to re-level the rear sway bar. Nobody has found a front resolution to the sway bar. I suggested all thread or go to local auto parts store testing the length of them in the parking lot. Also might want to add some 1/2"x1" box tubing under jounce bump stops so when lifted the front end responds the same without a heavy nose dive if hard braking. Lots of info on the site about all that stuff, don't recall every link to each thread but its all here.
