. . Sweet ride! Very, very clean for a 1994. I'd be afraid to take it out and get any pinstripes on that nice paint!! Here's what I followed to build the tire carrier for my 2-door: https://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/home-built-rear-rack-project.95134/ Getting that spare...

I love my K02's! I know you have the original version, but these new models with the more aggressive sidewalls are just awesome. I think they are nearly the perfect tire for our kind of use. Casey

Cool! Thanks! At one time there was an aftermarket dash bezel available that would allow you to lower the A/C controls and install a double din head unit so it would look factory. I'm not sure if it's still available or not.... Edit: looks like it's still available from more than one vendor...

Thanks! That is one awesome rig! I love the old square bodies. Wish I still had mine. Casey

Very cool! I may have missed it, but do you have info on your in-dash screen setup there? Did you move the a/c controls down lower in the dash? Casey

Looking good! I would love to see some pics of the whole truck, since I can't see the original photos you posted at the beginning of this thread! Casey

Plastic. I am not aware of any glass composite headlight assemblies. Even the factory OEM headlights were plastic, hence the yellowing and need to replace. The only glass headlights I know of are the work truck edition square headlights, like were used on the older vehicles for years and...

This is what I used on my 1995 Tahoe: https://www.ebay.com/itm/ANZO-111004-Headlight-Pair-Chrome/130823681646?epid=83303020&hash=item1e75b2f66e:g:sMQAAOSwDwtUnvmP&vxp=mtr Installed them over a year ago and absolutely love them! I've read lots of good reports on the Anzo products. It's...

I run my E rated BFG K02's at 42 psi on the street, and around 18 psi off-road. This is on a 6K (estimated) 2 door Tahoe diesel. I did the same with my old E rated Kendas. 50K miles combined on both sets so far with no issues. Heavier rigs will cause more tire deflection which will cause...

Sorry to hear of your accident! I'm surprised that happened since it looks to me like you were using a Fastway E2 weight distribution hitch? That's actually a pretty good hitch. I wonder if there some weight issues in the camper or truck that caused the balance to be off? Casey

New Update Sorry for the delay in updating, I don't get much time to be on the computer except when life slows down during the winter! :( So, after selling my C20 tow rig, the Tahoe was called in to do more towing duties. The stock 1/2 ton 6.5L hardware left a lot to be desired, with a...

Amen! Preach it brother!! :D :D :D Casey

Excellent advice given here! This is just a bit of semantics, but since I have been in the RV business for 23 years now, I just wanted to point out that "RV" means Recreation Vehicle: this includes everything from the smallest pop-ups to the largest diesel pushers and everything in between...

My pleasure! That was a fun rally. Hope to meet up again with you sometime in the future. Casey

- - - Hey, I recognize that rig!! I was at the Rendezvous in the Ozarks as well. I operated the Mid America RV booth in the Vendors area displaying the Dometic fridges. I was there with my Tahoe: - - - - - - Casey

Yeah the GM stuff is pretty weak. I guess that's why I only have 329K miles on the stock drivetrain, including the IFS front end. I guess doing miles and miles of trails in Arkansas and Colorado just haven't been tough enough to find the ticking time bombs of my rig! :D :D :D And yes, I...

Yep. For some odd reason, GM did not offer the diesel in the 4 door Tahoe, just the 2-doors and the Suburbans. There are a lot more diesel Suburbans than there are diesel Tahoes. Casey

- - Nice Rig! I love my 2-door! But I wish it was 4-door at times so that the kids could get in and out easier. - - Here's mine: - - - - Casey

- - - I love my Tahoe! :D - - - - - - 40 gallon fuel tank + diesel power + comfy interior = long distance driving comfort with minimal fuel stops, whereas my former Jeep TJ would have to stop for fuel 3 times as much, and was not very comfy for driving long distances. - Casey

General rule of thumb is 1.5 times the weight of your rig. https://www.warn.com/blog/2011/01/20/how_to_choose_the_right_winch.shtml Curb (unloaded, dry) weight of a 1999 Suburban is between 5 and 6K. A fully loaded expedition rig can weight a lot more. That means your minimum size winch...
