Going back stock

[_jaydubya_]

I have a 2013 Tahoe 4WD. I recently removed a rough country 7.5” lift and went back to stock suspension and a leveling kit. The issue that I’m having is that now my tie rod end is too big to fit into the factory knuckles and I can’t figure out which tie rod I need.

What's wrong with the OE tie rods then? PN# 15254061

If you need the inner tie rod with it, that # is 19178561

@_jaydubya_ There are more than 1 knuckle these trucks come with, depending on if your truck came from the factory with aluminum control arms or not. I think there are a few different varieties as far as stamped vs cast, aluminum vs steel and so on

I figured it out. The knuckles I was given were for a 99-07 Silverado. Found a set of knuckles second hand and got it back together.

How'd you go back to stock with all the cutting Rough Country makes you do?

Best idea ever. I never lift my vehicles since I have seen too many butchered and dangerous lift jobs.
