    New 2 door 2wd Tahoe owner and member. Has my hoe been lowered already??

    Adding second battery /w Isolator and amp power

    Hellwig helper springs, add an additional 2,000 pounds of weight capacity to the spring pack (or so they claim) and bolt right over the stock, really helps the saggy spring issue on these heavy suburbans and the company was excellent with their service

Get a few marine terminals (Assuming your battery also has top posts), screw your stock cables to those and then transfer it to the top posts I tell you, SINGLE BEST THING that I have EVER done to this thing, I absolutely abhor the side posts and tried 3 sets of new screws...
