So, what actually is a Z71Tahoe vs. a normal Tahoe?
from what I understand it is basically just a different mostly trim package, 4wd, running boards, shocks, skid plate (however) the skid plate could vary from plastic to aluminum depending.....
there are always different options depending on how it was ordered, tow package, trailer package, heated or heated & cooled, or not heated seats, adjustable or not adjustable pedals etc
power seats, hud or no hud yada yada
my silverado is a z71 but it is also a lt2 and texas package+ dealer add-ons

I've wondered the same. Is my 4WD in any way different from other 4WD?
Is the Z71 suspension different from a non-Z71 4WD Tahoe? If so, how so?
And questions like that ... specifically:

What are the pertinent similarities between a SSV and a Z71? Differences?
What are the pertinent similarities between a PPV and a Z71? Differences?
My fear is that I will never get helpful answers to the last two questions.

I want to create a Frankenstein using my very loose definition of GM OE ...
