You should check the tire ratings to see if it by obyone

can handle the load of towing your 25' boat before doing anything else. There are quite a few drop kits available but it seems bags might suit you better since you will still be towing.

20s with 275/55R20 works nice as a stock sized replacement. However 22s IMO look a lot better. Course the ride difference between 22 and 20 is almost as substantial as moving from 16 or 17 to 20s.
 
BTW I run 20s on a black Denali with a 1/3 drop and kept the stock self leveling shocks.

Thanks, to all of you who responded to my post, for the great advice. www.k0bg.com is a wonderful reference page. Proves once again that the Internet is a super source of information, if you just ask the right people!

2007 Tahoe 4WD question by megoza

I have a 4WD 2007 Tahoe LT. Sometimes when I crank it in the mornings, it moves a little bit like the transmission is in gear, but it is still in "Park". It doesn't happen all the time, just occasionally. Does anyone else have that problem?

Yes, there is a small gap but not enough to hurt anything. I ordered mine from Cabelas, who is turn gets them from Weather Tech.

Okay guys I need some professional advice. I am purchasing some 24" rims. I am looking to lower my hoe to close up the gap in the wheel well. I would like to keep as close as possible to my factory ride. I don't want a lowrider (rephrased for those politically correct sensitive people)that bounces all over the place. I also have a 25ft boat I need to tow. Can someone recommend a good but somewhat inexpensive lowering kit? I don't want the cheapest or the most expensive, but I want to do things right.
  
I just ordered the chrome mesh grille with tow hook covers and the chrome door handles. I think the last piece of chrome I am going to get is the chrome bow tie for the front grille. I already did the trick with the back bowtie and removed the gold cover to make the tie chrome.

All,
 
Thanks for all the info on the sound that my truck makes. I have been to busy to bring it back to the dealership, but did talk to my new service manager. He stated to me that he had two other Tahoes in for the same reason last week. Not sure if they fixed them or just started to replace random things. I guess I will find out next week when I drop off mine.
 
Shawn, I will pass along the info you provided along with the GM doc number about the power steering and see what happens. One thing that got me was that he mentioned it could be a vacuum problem. Anything is possible I guess.

Radio reboots when starting Tahoe by csprick
Nov 04, 2007 (2:13 pm)

I recently installed a 2 meter ham radio in my '07 Tahoe. The radio is connected directly to the battery terminal clamp bolts via crimp-on lugs, using the manufacturer's extension kit cables. I also have the manufacturer's noise filter in the line.
 
When the radio is on and I start the vehicle, the radio immediately shuts down and "reboots" as the Tahoe starts. When I shut down the Tahoe, the radio stays on, as it should.
 
The vehicle/battery is about 16 months old and I've experienced no other electrical issues with it. I measure just a hair over 12 volts at the radio's power connection with the vehicle shut off.
 
I'm suspecting that the starter pulls such current that the radio loses power and restarts, but am not sure:
 
a. if this is harmful to the radio
b. if I could correct this by installing a more heavy duty battery
c. if there is anything else I could/should do to keep the radio on
during starting
 
Thoughts/comments/suggestions would be appreciated.
