didn't we just have this conversation lol?
should I get an SS bumper, with the street scenes speed grill and an HD hood as well?

I love the look of the blacked out DRL's, it looks SOO mean especially when I roll up on another car at night and all I see are 2 bluish/purple lights shining

or when I see my reflection in a window

Haha we did, gotta be different from the many Tahoes on here, trust me, my Tahoe looks different from every NNBS on here, so I do not set double standards. For what it counts, I just got a BlackBear Tune yesterday after 2.5 years of forum life all the way back to the original TahoeForum. :)
My only complaint is that headlight looks out of place on the truck that is all dark colors, that why I recommended a black housing headlight only, over the complete setup the others have.
DO NOT get any of those above haha, roll pan would be clean though!:Handshake:

I think I might have a solution...

your issue is you think it doesn't look balanced.. to much blacked out

maybe when I get my HID fogs I'll clean off the paint on the lens that way you will have fogs that are clear and headlights that are clear and signals blacked out in the middle to give it balance?

Perfect, though that may be kind of hard to get that paint off the lens w/o messing the lens up.

alright so I was reading Boss' thread on the belltech coils...
..didn't want to ***** his up with my problems


so ever since the body drop I've had vibrations in the floor pan more than usual..
..body mounts were loose.. impacted them.. most of the vibration is gone at city speed 40-55mph

then when I hit the freeway going about 80-90mph the front wheels vibrate a lot I can feel it in the floor pan

so this is what I'm thinking..
trailing arm relocators? anyone have a link?
a new hub? how much do they run
the rings modded was talking about.. link and how much?

and anything else suspension wise you could think of to help that I am missing with my 5" drop

Ok here is what I suggest.
Get some Loctite from your loacal hardware store, the blue one (middle strength) and impact of those body mount bolts, apply just a small amount near the end of the bolt thread, then retorque to 160lbs per bolt.
Trailing arm reloactors can be gottern from DJMDIRECT the vendor, just tell him you need the DJM RK2007 kit at a good price (looking at around $150), I would just get the whole kit with the DJM coils (about $220ish) so you can run the stronger coils with your setup, does not ride bad when the rear is weighed down, and you have all that audio equipment so you are good.
Lastly you could need a new hub, find them online (might as well do both sides) and they go for like $120 shipped each, takes like 30 minutes a side for install.
Lastly, the hub rings that helpd me out, helped with vibration/steering shakig from the 50MPH range, to about 75MPH, I rarely go up to 90MPH so I do not know if the shaking would have gotten better or worst at that point.
Jus tget some hub rings at the link posted above (you do no want the aluminum ones because they can seize onto the wheel or hub, and they do the exact same thing the plastic type ones do).
That's about it.:Handshake:

perfect!!!!

yeah I've done a lot of modding now I just want to get everything back to spec and get everything tightened up again

I'll try the hub centric rings then go from there

I'm pretty sure my hub is bad on the right side but I can check that soon

what about sway bars... any suggestions?

I want front and back

Scratch front and back, the front one does not make a good enough differnce to justify $150, the rear ones does though.
