I was going to put those exact Moog springs in my Tahoe but sold it before I did. They're only supposed to lift the rear about an inch. It'd say your factory coils were totally shot. What shocks do you have in it? The original factory ones I took out were some sort of load carrying shock and dropped the rear end of the Tahoe about an inch when I swapped in a set of Bilsteins. So if your shocks aren't original and your springs are worn I could see getting a 3" lift out of those coils.
Yes, it would sway on the highway and would push itself around. Wasn't hard to control but was annoying. Just a set of KYB's nothing fancy but they were just replaced about 6 months ago.
Next thing is speaker upgrade, I have a set might try to put them in before blazer bash, the factory speakers suck.
The factory speakers do suck. Just swapping those tissue paper speakers is a nice upgrade. Do you have the "Bose" system or no?
PS edited my last post
Yes it does, the head unit has been upgraded and the speakers i have will fit directly into the doors but im not sure how well they will play with the bose amp
Did yours have the autoride? i think that was what the load capacity shocks were.
Chunks o metal mostly small and metallic tint on the bottom of the pan
No autoride (thank god)
It caught me by surprise when I removed the shock mounting bolt and the truck dropped and the shock shot out to full extension.
Didn't drop the pan, was to lazy and hot.
Well, in reality, it makes sense to leave it alone. You won't have to put the oil back in to get it on the trailer.
Can't find a trailer though and I'm going to take the girlfriends malibu. I hope a sm465 can fit in the trunk.
Hopefully it doesn't, worst case I take it. The trans isn't for me.
Damn and we were all thinking you had finally came to your senses
Also why wouldn't you take the Tahoe whether you tow or not? Fold down the seats and you have a nice area to sleep in. No pitching tents
And you can carry the trans back for your truck.
You could buy a cheap tote to set the trans in so it won't make a mess.
That is the plan.
Have a cabin and double the mpg sounds nice!
Don't think it's coming.
