Nice truck. On teh lift, you will want larger tires with a 4-6" lift....think more like 33-35.

yea i agree, dont know if your going to actually off road this truck, but if you do head out to places like corbett, 8th st, holy lands ect, i would say the 6" with a nice aggressive 33" mud terrain..


i see you got the new head unit on order, dont know how you feel about prefabbed boxes but a couple guys use this one http://caraudiofactory.com/19921999-chevy-tahoe-down-fire-p-365.html?osCsid=7

Yeah the dash lights were easy as pie. Some of the window/lock switch lights are out on mine so I need to put new ones in.

I'd love to see some pictures of the towing mirrors if you have any.

I don't plan to do anything crazy with it off road.

I think I'm going to stick with 31s or 32s. Likely some used 31" super swampers. I ran 38x15 boggers on my old truck and they were great in the mud, but they do more harm than good. I don't feel like swaping gears and fixing front end parts constantly.

I was planning on getting a premade sub box just like that. It will leave more room in the back.

I also painted the needles stoplight red model paint with white tips added also has the hid conversion for headlights working on gettimg the switch back parking light bulbs,and led high beams if i get the drl's working again,it sucks because i am limited to the colors i can use (dam maroon interior) but it was like a cherry color when i got it.A buddy and i did a color change on it to white with maroon stripes on it

That looks pretty cool and those needles are sweet. They go good with the rest of the truck. I thought about a different background but the stock one looks fine to me.

Those mirrors are definitely on the list.

At first they look hugh but after a few hours i got use to them and i just put 3" convex mirrors on today also now i can see everything

Then don't lift it. It will look like pure ass with 31's and a 6inch lift. That might be cool in parts of So. Cal, but not any where else.

I want to lift it up a bit, but I don't like body lifts and I prefer not to crank the torsion bars. I've done both of those before and I looks and rides like crap.

4" RCX will work fine for my needs. It will look fine with the right set of wheels and tires.

I need the plastic guide tab thing for the dash cup holder if anyone has an extra. My cup holder won't stay in.
