the leaf pack is sitting square on the perches that are welded to the axle

black dog your right!!, it has leaf springs, no panhard bar. I did some major measuring under there, (back of brake drums to frame and both sides are the same, so the axle is sitting true to the frame) no body damage either. the best I can tell by measuring the body to the frame, is the whole...

axle JKmotorsports suggested this: The panhard bar runs across from the left side of the axle to the frame right above the right side of the axle. This bar prevents lateral movement of the rearend assembly. Because of the geometry of the suspension componenets, when the vehicle is lifted or...

axle I cranked up the front about 1", would that effect the back?

axle can you guys check your trucks and tell me what you come up with? I just put a straight edge across the fender well and measured the gap, between the straight edge and the tire.

axle the tahoe is a 1999, I bought it used, no vehicle history damage. the truck is mint. the original lady owner traded it in to toyota. there's 60,000 miles on it. the only seat that looks to be sat in is the drivers seat. and the paint is original. I put new shock in and had a good look...

I noticed the rear axle is off centre.can I just loosen the U-bolts on the leaf springs and slide it over, or is there a pin under the leaf spring?. I never really notice it before until I was installing some mud flaps. then realized the tire was closer to the outer fender well on the passenger...

Not sure if this is common, but the rear axle on my 99 tahoe is off center. I never really noticed it until I was trying to install some mud flaps, then noticed the tire on the passenger side was closer to the outer fenderwell than on the drivers side, aleast an inch, I'm afraid if I put a wider...

thats weired, mine are so tight they hardly open, I oiled the hinges and their still hard to open, I just thought they must be designed that way so they don't swing shut on a you

thanks! I'll use up the 10w-30

I want to do a oil change on the tahoe I just bought(99 with a 350 ) and I see the oil fill cap says 5w-30. the reason I'm asking is I have a couple of cases if 10w-30 oil kick'in around I wouldn't mine using up.

It' a 4x4

Ok, thanks! I'll look into it

This was a one owner(a lady bought it new) its all stock, I don't think she fooled around with the front end. does that sound about right 70.00 for each one of those cam lock keys?

it has a trailer hitch on it perhapes the rear springs are a little more heavy duty, I like when they sit level or even a hair higher in the front, mine needs to come up about 1" in the front to level it. a tire shop told me that I could get a key from GM for those torsion bars to crank them up...

I'll look into them. If I cranked up the front tortion bars,(never had a vehicle with this kind of front suspension) to lift the front up about 1" to level the vehicle,would I need an alignment?, and possibly longer front shocks? thanks
