Lift Requirements

[Elijah Dover]

So I'm lifting my Tahoe finally with the help of Christmas around the corner. Since I am 2WD, I notice my options are limited to lifts. So I finally found something I can piece together to get me where I'd like my Tahoe to sit. I found on eBay a lift kit which includes:

4 Inch Lift Spindles/Knuckles
2 Inch Lift Keys
2 Inch Rear Spacer
Torsion Unloading Tool
Shock Extenders for the Front

My Tahoe:
2004 Chevy Tahoe 5.3L LT
2WD
Factory 17 Inch Wheels
I plan on getting a set of Nitto Terra Grapplers, either 285/70/17 or 295/70/17, or with your help lead me to a good size tire with this setup (Probably find someone who is selling some on Craigslist)

My Tahoe will basically stay on the streets the entire time, so I'm not worried about having to take things off road ever.

MY QUESTION:
What am I going to need in addition to the lift? Like parts wise? Cause I see with other Lift kits that they come with extended brake lines and other items. Any thoughts?

If you're not cranking the keys it makes sense. But I'd still get new shocks it'll ride much better

I'm 2wd and I'm doing all of this because I want the best ride possible. Here in a few weeks I'll have all of this installed, been collecting parts for a while...

-3" spindle
-3" keys
-2" Maxtrac lift coils
-2" spacers
-Spohn adjustable track bar
-Cognito front sway bar links
-JK jeep rear sway bar links
-2" wheel spacers in the rear(since spindles push the track width out 1 5/8" in front)
-Moog problem solver UCAs
-Moog problem solver LCA ball joint
-Moog tie rods
-Russel ss braided brake lines
-Bilstein 5100 on all 4



I'll be replacing the rest of the steering and suspension with Moog later on as well, because like I said I want the best ride on and off road
