97 4dr tahoe 4x4 progress

[drakon543]

Sitting at work on break and felt like making a post.
Little while ago i bought a 97 4dr tahoe for 1600 bucks. It needed a tune up, new dist, brakes all around, tires, and was stuck in 4lo. Ill post pics later but its got 119k on it and it was brought up to pa from nevada area so it has minimal to no rust on it. Dry heat and improper care did a number on the clear coat but its in pretty good shape overall. So far ive fixed all the issues except the a/c and replacing the pitman and idler arm. Ive been too busy to finish up the work required for pa inspection. I have a set of falken wildpeak at3w waiting to get mounted on the 17in ultra wheels that were on it when i bought it. I also scored a goodhood 442 ram air hood in trade for some work i did. I also bought the k&n intake and transdapt tb spacer. Ive gotten mpg gains with tb spacers on every other vehicle ive used them on so i will continue using them regardless of the bs claim they increase power. Again ill post pics later as for some reason im still not able to post pics directly through the site.

Put on a new starter today to deal with the poor startup after ive been running around for a while. Had my buddy run through the truck with his snap on something or other (forget its name but it cost him like 5g or something). Issues remaining with my truck appear to be minor issues according to his high priced scanner. The 4wd xfer case functions perfectly the only issue there is the front actuator on the axle. The a/c needs to be Properly Evacuated, vacuum charged and new hvac controls inside.
