this is my 04 Tahoe 4x4. loaded... sunroof, bose, 6 disc changer, perfect leather. yep, a doll.
its sporting 285 / 70 / 17 hanook atms
did a 2 in lift on the frt and gtg. after aligning the frt end, this is a really nice larger tire set up. rides great and still maintaining 15.4 mpg. avg.
the lil lift really helped a nose diving frt via the grill guard. now, my brakes should wear a lot more evenly.
its total overall lift is right at 2. 5 in. in the frt while only raising the rear about 1 in. via the larger tire. its just a lil high in the rear now. grrreat outcome.
btw, it also has the perfect matching leather 3rd row seat. now its balance is far better than if id put the regular sized tires and done nothing .
I don't need to disclose engine displacement, do I ? lol
the 04 motor is rated at 295 in this rig. earlier yrs yielded much less.
ive owned 2 of these. both previous had a spark knock.. this 1 is really smooth throughout. let me just say. that spark knock is nothing to worry about. but it really felt nice to get 1 knockfree. I had a chance at a z71 like this 1. I said no. there are features on this doll that aren't seen on most z71s. and its quiet. not for sale or trade !
Nice ride, Andy. My dad was a Chevy guy. [;>)
i LOVE chevies!
