    2003 Tahoe Build - Family Overland Rig

    Here's some front brake pictures. The GMT900 front rotors are 13-inch diameter, the GMT800 are 12-inch. Much more contact area and longer moment arm. This is the third time I've done the brakes in 85,000 miles. The second time was with a Power Stop kit and a bit a of a COVID lock...

    2003 Tahoe Build - Family Overland Rig

    I got all the brake parts from RockAuto.com. The police package / fleet vehicle parts are identified as such. For the front brakes you just go looking for parts that fit the GMT900 series 1500 trucks. Lots of write ups out there on this. I didn't get the slotted rotor style this time as I...

    If a Yukon XL counts then does a Tahoe count? Lots of mods, maybe too many? Build thread link in signature.

    2003 Tahoe Build - Family Overland Rig

    Rigd Ultra Swing is sold. Next up is the GMT900 front brake upgrade with police package parts. I recently did the rear brakes again with the police package calipers and pads. Now it's time for the front to match up so hopefully the brake temps are even front to back. If I can't go faster I...

    2003 Tahoe Build - Family Overland Rig

    So I'm selling my RIGd Ultraswing. It hasn't been as versatile as I expected. I can not use it on the back of my Tahoe and tow the XV-2, since the swing out wont clear the trailer tongue. Even the other version RIGd makes with the offset up swing out, still wouldn't clear things unless the...

    Added on a AT Overland NATO can and Scepter can holder on the front part of the fender. Also move the 5-lb propane tank mount from PowerTank off the RIGd Ultraswing and onto the back side of the passenger side fender. These changes will let me put the LOLO 6-place bike rack on the back of the...

    Suburban mild lift parts? (GMT800 '00-06)

    Would you consider aftermarket UCA with replaceable ball joints? Otherwise MOOG CK80942 from Rock Auto would do. I've been very happy ordering parts from them since you know exactly what your going to get. That's more than you can say from some other sellers.

    Suburban mild lift parts? (GMT800 '00-06)

    Check out my build thread for more, but I ended up with the Cognito upper control arms and now their latest upper ball joint. I also did the tie rod end upgrade via. Rare Parts (RP28732) and the Cognito braces. In the rear I did new springs, spacers, shocks, panhard bar, and lower control...

    Propane. To allow the use of a Brunton two-burner stove that runs on ~12psi I added in a adjustable regulator and a 90-deg. fitting with a 1-lb bottle type port. There's a second regulator after the split under the trailer on the line side that goes to the hot water heater so that still only...

    Solar. I got a Renogy 100W flexible panel and put rubber edging around it to keep it from cutting into something like the tent or awning fabric. Also picked up the needed adapter cables and 24-ft of cable so the panel can be placed where the sun is best. Getting 4.# amps out of it in...

    Lighting covers to keep the Roof Top Tent Cover off the hot lights. You'll also notice that I moved the lights down off the rack and onto the vertical bar so the tent would open (this was done right away, but I don't think I put up a good photo of it. You can also see the nylon tipped set...

    For storage in the bed of the trailer I'd been looking for an upgrade to the rubbermaid bins we'd been using for camping for years. They worked great except that they were about 17-inches tall and the height under the tonneau cover on an XV-2 is right at 19.25-inches. This left some wasted...

    Here's some XV-2 updates, including storage, solar, lights, and propane. First post will cover storage. Storage bins at the store Height check, this was all luck coming right in at 19.25-inches Storage in trailer bed. Upper right are two 5-gal. bins, to the left are 4 12-gal. bins...

    2003 Tahoe Build - Family Overland Rig

    Front is on aftermarket torsion bar "lift" keys. I think this is covered early in the build thread. I've also been thinking about getting new torsion bars for some time now, but they are expensive and may not make things much better other than not having the keys cranked nearly all the way...

    2003 Tahoe Build - Family Overland Rig

    Not so exciting maintenance items but I just replaced the tensioner pullies, idler pully, belts, and the fan clutch. All AC Delco OE or Professional parts. Hope this helps with engine cooling and AC operation. I had been getting chatter from the AC tensioner with the AC compressor slugging...

    02' Yukon, looking to upgrade the OEM roof rack rails.......

    Hope the photos help with ideas, I know they are not supper detailed though. The lake is Clear Lake south of Mt. Hood, OR. It's a reservoir type lake so the water level changes seasonally and you can drive around parts of the edge of the lake in the late summer.
