Modded, from what I understand your a very respected member on these forums. Every thread I read, your name always comes up. But with all due respect, Nick was just stating his opinion. You said "no cockyness intended," but basically we all know that was BS. Who are you to say what looks good and what doesn't? He was stating what HE thinks is the best looking Tahoe he's ever seen. So pretty much you were doing the same thing you accused him of. Ironic huh? Everyone is going to have different opinions, and are entitled to them. So check the sarcasm at the door, and stop criticizing someone of their own opinions.

Chill man I was not trying to make anyone mad, inc. Nick:Handshake:. But I have enough recent history with Nick to pretty much call BS on anything he says, I held my lowering kit for him last year because me and him made a deal that I would sell it to him for $120 AND install if for free, how many people would actually do that!?:hands:
Then come the time we were suppose to go ahead and handle it, he started ignoring me from text messages all the way to on here with no response even unitl now, keep in mind that was not the first time, he had pulled the same crap with a grille in the past. Basically he made me hold on to something I could have easily sold quickly, then BS'd me and I ended up not selling it until recently due to Christmas spending and all, that is just straight BS :imo:
He could atleast say something back like "I don't want it anymore" or something instead of just acting like a fraud, now I have sworn not only not to hold on to anything car related for anyone online, but I will never conduct any business with him again!
The only reason why I called BS on what he said is because I just feel like he is all talk, thats it!

BTW dropping your Z71 should not be too hard, a regualr 2/3 drop should do it easily.
I suggest you run the Pedders coils out back, if not you may have to change those shocks out because they will ride rough with the Z71 shocks and normal drop coils (Pedders rear coils are not normal, ride real good :D). Then rund 2" spindles up front and your good.

I apologize for coming off rude. I decided to go with the Belltech 2/3 kit. Do you think that will be too much of a rough ride? I appreciate your input Modded. Obviously you know wayyy more about this stuff than I do. haha! :Handshake:

Ya I just looked at NOLATahoes pics too, I love the look of it! Im really thinkin it would look good lowered. The fender flares make the Tahoe look beefy, plus lowering it with 24's, I think it would compliment it well!

I like the idea of lowering it, will make it unique!
Your ride should be good enough with the Belltech kit (Good stuff), I just hope you got 2" drop spindles for the front, and s/e for the back, or your ride may be a bit screwed up??

Now that we're on the same page again, just make sure you have spindles and s/e (Belltech Part number 6651) with the coils in the rear and you are as good as can be.

LoL I always repeat myself online, kind of a habit.
But yeah ICON I will have pics in a few days of my completed 3/5 drop, which is not really what you are looking for but CarDomain has alot of 2/3 drop on 24s pics.
