Good luck not detonating your front and rear axles

So I have a 1998 Tahoe 4 door and am going to be towing with it and want to see who else tows with theirs. I don't want to hear about how you tow your lawn tractor though, I mean really tow. I will be towing a car trailer loaded with my rock crawler (Jeep weighing around 4000 lbs) and want to...

Oh, I think we should specify whether your talking 4link front SAS for offroad or 4 link rear for lowering.

No kits, 4 links are a very calculated set up as well. I recommend having a shop do this our your truck, as a poorly set up 4 link can ruin both on and off road performance.

How are your shocks and all your suspension bushings? I would check them out as well especially your bushings on your front and rear swaybars. Also perhaps lowering it some would help with this? Or upgraded swaybars.

You will have to cut the old one out though.

I run a pair of the cheap ebays ones on my Hoe, and they fit fine. I had to enlarge the plug hole a bit but besides that they line up and everything.

I would read in depth into your laws as well. I know with NH for instance we have 30 inch bumper hieght law, but if your bumper has been tampered with I.E. lowered the hieght is then taken from the ends of the frame, wich is usually higher than the factory bumper.

The infiniti reference line is a nice entry level speaker. I have the 6.5s in my Hoe. Love them.

If you get a lift kit that has 4 inch blocks and want good flex in the rear, do a shackle flip rather than new leaf springs. http://www.offroaddesign.com/catalog/shacklekit.htm

You need to buy the expensive one, my buddy bought a cheaper one and it makes distortion in the picture.

I disagree, 6 lug has a huge aftermarket suport. Plus it gives you the option of using alot of the nice late model OEM wheels. Enless you have done something extensive to the real axle, why not just swap the real axle of a 4wd into your truck?

Okay now with all your transmission knowledge i have a question on a non speed and HP question. I have a tahoe, 6 inch lift and 35s that i will be using to tow a full car trailer with a built cherokee on it. My transmission is at about 230 thousand miles, would I be better off with rebuilding...

Haha yep, its too bad Ford through that trash transmission in there, it was a fun little car. I sold my for $1000 bucks after loosing 2nd gear. I had some money wrapped in it but i was leaving for the Army and didn't need multiple cars. Last time i checked it lost 3rd gear too and sits in a...
