Post:All lowered tahoes 4dr and 2dr

[HuskerHoe]

I'm dropped with factory hitch. I use a 2" drop hitch but flip it upside down, 2" up. I've pulled an 8000lb trailer a couple times no problem. Never used my spare tire in the 3 years I've had it so I got rid of it. I also have one of those 250psi compressors that you plug into your cigarette lighter.

I wouldnt heitate to pull a 4000lb boat with a hidden hitch and some helper bags. Buy a little compressor, ditch the spare and dont look back

i guess my boat hitch is just kinda high, cause i use like a 5 in drop hitch i think, flipped. and it settles out kinda level when it's on my truck. as far as i know i'm factory height, doesn't look lowered. maybe my rear springs are tired? but that's the only thing i really pull with it, the only heavy thing, anyway. (22' bay boat). it might just be tongue heavy, no telling. haven't pulled much stuff in general, so i dunno. anyhow, thanks for the info. didn't mean to threadjack it. branndon

i havnt notched yet
it rides ok a little bouncy take the bump stop bracket out when u do the flip kit
the bracket has a bolt on one side and a rivet on the other just take the bolt out and spin the bracket to the back and it will be out of the way
unless u want to drill or cut out that rivet
good luck

clean95, what about upfront? I know when I was decranked I was sitting on the bumpstops. Is there was to get more front travel out of these? Even after cutting bumpstops?

i have already cut out the bumpstop bracket, i just cut into the head of the rivet a little and then hit it with the air chisel, then grinded it down flat, and punched it out. thanks for the info
