hey all. i just bought myself a 1998 tahoe 4 door and i have decided that i would like to firm up my suspension a little and maybe get some lift. i was thinking about adding these( http://www.summitracing.com/parts/slf-2300/overview/year/1998/make/chevrolet/model/tahoe ) and maybe cranking up front a little. what do you guys think?im gunna need tires soon and i would like to go up in size. thanks.

What size tire are you planning on Upfitting and whats your budget if you don't mind me asking?

my budget is ever changing as im getting married soon and expenses keep popping up. its not in the budget for a full 6 inch lift yet but thats where i wanna end up. and my budget as of this second is roughly 200-300. right now i would be happy funning some 285s or 295s. just gotta get away from the stock look.

Thanks man , have you checked into Rough countries lift kits? They sell a great kit for Half the price of most . Just a little advice I learned along the way "buy what you want/need the first time " <---- that statement would have saved me so much money .

Just a FYI cranking the Tbars much will Wear the front end parts much quicker . You would actually save money in the long run if you went ahead and bought a Diff drop lift .

it may cost more but if i lift it slowly then the wife wont freak out. but if i were to go up 6-7 inches like i wanna end up with wheels and tires i would be a dead man.

also is there any reason that my driver side rear should be 1.5" taller than the passenger side?

Weak leaf spring packs or mis-adjusted torsion bars if it is a 4x4.

I was wrong. I measured on a hill like an idiot.
