No pics yet but I took the spare tire, jack, and lug wrench off/out of the Tahoe todat as a weight reduction measure this afternoon. Its not really faster or any more race-car than it was before- but going over the pass on the way back to the coast I threw it around some corners and the tail end for sure follows the front end better. Thats the best way I can describe it.
Next task is to remove the bracket that held the jack, the winch that held the spare tire, and the heat shield between the spare tire slot and the exhaust- and then the spare tire delete will be complete.
I’m going to keep looking for ways to eliminate weight like this
