So the wife has been weighing options for a vehicle.

She is driving a 2016 Tahoe LTZ, has some wheels, nothing too special. Has been a good ride for her.

She has really good taste and the vehicles she likes are out the budget for right now unless we want to stretch a bit on funds.

I’ve been floating the idea of “pimping her ride”, she’s not opposed to the idea.

First order of business is going to be a whole
Mess of maintenance items, all the fluids, cv shafts, unit bearings, etc etc etc.

She wants a little bit of lift and some 33s

Soooooooooo, what’s out there for these trucks in terms of suspension?

My thoughts were new rear springs, new rear control arms and panhard, some nice front upper control arms , new stock replacement lowers and good shocks all around.

I was looking at the IzzyFab stock worth front stuff but it would be a waste on my wife’s truck, although I really like the idea of it.

What’s the best bang for the buck for replacement shocks for these GMs?
(Fox, King, Bilstein, lifted magneride ahocks?)

Who has good upper control arms?
(I was looking at dirt kind, Camburg, LSK)

Was looking at Method 709s , who is gonna have the best prices on those?

Any input and ideas are welcome. I have ideas , but as always there are obviously things I’m overlooking or don’t know about

Thanks!

I’d love to go full on mid travel but it’d be wasted on her. It will see the road most of the time but occasionally on weeekends or trips may see some first service roads
