[QUOTE="Marky Dissod, post: 24660, member: 13218"] If mods think this post belongs in a different subforum, please move where best. Tried asking over @ TYF, zero responses as of now ... [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/gmt800-stiffer-front-torsion-and-rear-coil-springs.155516/post-1991779[/URL] Hauled 46 5ft by 2ft rolls of Kentucky BlueGrass in my '02 Tahoe Z71's cargo area on Friday, which shoved the trailer hitch down to about 12" off the ground at rest. Since I'm very likely to do some very heavy hauling like this again in the near future, the idea of turning my Tahoe into a '2500' in hauling terms (NOT TOWING!) is about to become a necessity. I really think I need stiffer SPRINGS front and back. Now I'm trying to figure out how much stiffer a Tahoe can safely go. 1. Any '2500' vehicle owners in the NYC area, whether pickup or Suburban? I'd like an idea of what I'm getting into. 2. Anyone know which front torsion bars and coil springs were used by a Suburban 2500? [/QUOTE]
