Handling upgrades for the 2000 Limited

[2000_TahoeLimited]

Hey there

I'm fairly new to the Tahoe world and we have a 2000 Limited (old body style).

First off - what is the source for the lower valance that I see on some Tahoes that has round fog light inputs?

Second, I really want to flatten the handling out - does Eibach or anyone make a beefed sway bar or a heavier duty police version?

Third - see above, substitute the word "shocks"...

and fourth - I want to lower it, not slammed but lowered maybe an inch or two in front and whatever it takes to level the back to the front..

Ton of questions, I know !

Thanks in advance !!!!!

welcome Ed to the site.

You can get the lower valance from Stylintrucks for Street Scene. If your talking about the SS bumper cover.
Eibach makes a thicker sway bar that is supposed to really help the handling. New shocks, ( I like Bilstins) all the way around will help as well.
We have several vendors on the right, Tim or Tony at DJM that can assist you in a complete lowering kit, in any stance you like. Most opt for the 2/3 as a general rule, or 3/4 to 3/5 if you really want to go low.

have any more questions, please feel free!

You may have better luck in the 92-99 forum as you truck is essentially a 99 body style. Bilstein makes damn good shocks for those trucks and belltech, as well as others, make larger anti-sway bars that should dramatically improve handling. Here is my old limited after I dropped it 2" for my buddy, the current owner:





The front has since settled another 1/2" truck drives really nice and handles much better.

2" belltech springs up front and 2" belltech shackles in the rear. Bilstein shocks, new steering, bunch of little stuff I did before selling it to my friend. The wheels are stock limited ronals powdercoated gloss black.
