[QUOTE="BadChevyZ-71, post: 6902, member: 520"] Today- Been a while since I've updated my build thread, but not a whole lot has been done. I had just recently re-organized my Photobucket pictures which basically took out 99% of the pictures I had posted in this thread. So I just finished adding all the pictures back and switched a couple around so there is a couple new pictures posted. I updated the current picture and did some slight changes to the future modification list. About a week after my last post above I picked up that 04' Chevy Tahoe Z-71, which I will be making a build thread for it shortly. About a month after owning the Tahoe I was driving the truck to work and noticed the steering was sloppy so when I went to lunch I rolled under the truck to take a quick peek at the steering components. I found the bracket that holds the idler arm to the frame came undone from the frame. I had already had it welded once when it was just a small crack a couple years ago. So when I noticed that I knew it was unsafe to drive. So I got a few estimates on having the bracket welded back to the frame and reinforced. I just recently switched jobs so I ended up driving the truck home for it to sit until save up some extra cash to have it welded back. Now if the weather would get better to where I have a weekend with little to no chance of rain I have some work to do to both the Silverado and Tahoe. Enough talk here is a couple pictures....
