I thought you were selling and I almost got mad haha Tahiti is the reason I subscribed. I love all the upgrades you did to her and have done a lot of them to mine. I understand your quest for sleeper status and wish you luck on the build!

@ta6point6litre Год назад

I like the direction you are going with this. If you don't like it, then change it. That is what makes these trucks great. So many different options. At the end of the day, it your opinion that matters the most. Gotta do what you love.

@melanated_honey 6 месяцев назад

Oh my goodness so I love this comment specifically because this is the direction I’m going in with my 03 Tahoe, after watching you do what you deal with your 04 Tahoe I actually purposely bought those three Tahoe just to do this. And I have a whole girl, so this is even more exciting for me because I’m actually getting to learn how to do a lot of those through RU-vid. It’s just I know next year’s gonna be the year I started. I’m just trying to figure out what direction I wanna go in with my truck and watching your videos have been amazing, as well as helpful

For anyone interested in the front brake upgrade, get your brakes from a 2008-2013 NOT a 2007. There seems to be a different part number for 2007 calipers from the later years, so they might not be the correct parts.

@bobb851 Год назад

So the 2007's won't work? I already got both calipers and brakes and painted. Was waiting until I needed to do front brake job. I don't understand

@jwhittredge Год назад

@@bobb851 2007 was a model change. 2007 Classic would be the "Cat Eye" Silverado. Body style change on the latter 2007's. I bet that is the difference in why Matt is recommending 2008-2013. 2014 was another model change. So, depending what you got them off of "old" or "new" body style, they may or may not work.

So the recommended Callahan kit from Amazon is no longer recommended?

@lsXmatt Год назад

@@howardross7149 Thats the right one. I remember seeing the same part number issue when I was linking those parts so I made sure it was for a 2008.

@lsXmatt Год назад

@@bobb851 If you got the parts I linked in my video then they are correct. If not then I’m still not sure if 2007 is actually wrong or not. Just for some reason the part numbers are slightly different compared to the 2008 and up. Could just be a model year change thing.

@GrandPrix46 Год назад

The brake upgrade has been superceded by 2019 brakes, they're 4 piston calipers. I unfortunately didn't know about this before doing a 2010 brake upgrade on my '03 Suburban a few months back. Stops good enough but just burns my ass a little knowing I didn't get the best I could when I was doing new brakes all the way around.

Thanks for the video! I definitely respect the decision to switch it back to stock, months ago after finding your page I watched the entire transformation of Tahiti and it inspired me to start a build of my own and after a few months I decided to switch directions and sell the truck. Sometimes priorities change, sometimes life gets in the way, and sometimes you realize you just don't like the build once you get into it. That's the world of modifying vehicles! Thanks again for the great content, can't wait to see what's next!

@Canon1DMkII Год назад

The stock Tahoe is a great interstate roller. No need to make it miserable to drive.

@laiky71 Год назад

Agree completely! I never thought the off road build was a good idea. Especially since you don't off road and it doesn't go well with a ton of power. You need a "City" Truck. Good handling, good brakes, good ride and wheel travel. Then add a ton of power. The reason these trucks are so good in the city is that they have a chassis, some side wall, and good travel. they absorb the mess we go through every day. My TB still has 70 series tires, which i NEVER thought i would like, but they work great in the real world. Lower it some, keep a premium damper on it. Go to a high performance all season tire (maybe a pilot sport as4?) then add the power. It will be great around town and a rocket on the open road.

@jerrymannix9298 Год назад

Glad you went back to stock with the wheels and everything else, 2nd Gen Tahoe's are great looking SUV's. I bought my 2002 Z71 new in December of 2001, it now has 316,000 miles and still runs great. Those 5.3L are bullet proof as long as you change the oil regularly. My rockers are rusted pretty bad under the Z71 plastic so I'll be watching out for your rust repair video. In your original brake video, you stated that we would need 18" wheels so I never did it. Now that I know it will work on stock 17" I'll make that upgrade on my next brake job, but next on my list are new door hinge pins, my driver door sags a half inch when I open it. Thanks for all the great Tahoe video's, they are my favorite.

Well hell Matt, you gotta do what makes you happy dude. I will admit, some of the exterior trim stuff you want to delete does look pretty good- the HD front end, for example. The Escalade trim in the rear always looks really good on this generation tahoe too. But that's just my preference- I'll watch whatever you decide to do with it either way man. Keep up the great work and great content! 👍

@guardian-921 Год назад

Big reason I went head first into modifying my Tahoe was your videos. My logic is with the power adders, you'll really want to make sure the suspension is proper even if you're not adjusting anything. Go back to stock body wise, keep your drivetrain/suspension mods.

@SpaceGhost_da_BassGhost Год назад

Greetings from Dallas, Texas. First and foremost, I love your videos. Just by watching you I have upgraded my suburban in many ways. Been trying to figure out my front end suspension and I saw your video when you were completely replaced everything. It helped out a lot. Thank you for the videos. Keep it up. Would love to see more if there is anything else to do I understand but I love your videos bro

@metal-keyboard-player Год назад

Excellent content and suggestions, I have an 01 suburban 2 wheel drive, I have the 07-14 20" wheels and an Android touchscreen as my first 2 mods. I have owned a few brand new Ford full size trucks and love them but, to be completely honest with this 20 year old vehicle, it is absolutely my favorite in many ways, and as you said the soft ride is one of the best things about it. And it's extremely cool how many people are parting these out because they made so many, I found an 03 w completely identical code #s and paint too of course. My older brother has had a 2004 Tahoe four-wheel drive in mint condition for many years and he's always bragged about it , the motor and the simplicity of the design for repairs and or upgrade.

I've watch almost all your videos on Tahiti. I just finished my lift using Suspension Maxx torsion keys and raised my 03 Tahoe up and I didn't know at the time I bought the same drop upper control arms as you. I also put the longer Bilstien shocks ! My truck rides great I live in CO. and go off road frequently nothing heavy duty. When I need breaks I'll do the 07 up grade, which is an awesome Idea. My E fans are another story as I'm going factory! Everything is set up correctly but no one can program my ECM/PCM. When I was in Jersey I went south Jersey to where you suggested but the couldn't do it ! So finally I found an 05 for sale with factory Efans and took the VID # from that and ordering a new ECM for $150. and will go from there!

I have had 5 GMT800 SUVs not including trucks and I absolutely love these trucks, how easy they are to modify to be quick, comfortable, handle surprisingly well, and reliable. I am going to head, intake, cam, headers for the LQ9 torque converter, transmission build, 4.11 gears and diff, stereo, HD hood cut to fit the GMC front end, grille, front and rear painted bumpers and new head lights, replace the worn suspension components. I've always wanted to build a fullsize Trailblazer SS. Keep the coilovers and shocks and sell it last because you will be disappointed to go back with stock torsion bars and shocks. Or you could even build a slightly lowered maybe 2-3" front and rear Z71 Tahoe leaving you an AWD SUV to make quick.

@paulyshore98 Год назад

Hey there is another brake upgrade you're missing out on. You can mount 2019-2022 Sierra brakes as long as you have 17" wheels. Those are 13.5" (stock is 12") rotors and 4 piston calipers. I saw a video on it and found 2 brand new front sets that were take-offs for $225. All you need is a couple flat washers to center the calipers on the rotor because it's not a floating caliper. I pull a trailer without brakes and always ended up warping the rotors. Now I have way more stopping power with no worries of brake fade or warping the rotors.

@lsXmatt Год назад

Its nice to see someone who appreciates the stock look/ride of the 2nd gen Tahoes. I'm personally not a fan of when they get modded out, especially the Z71 trim, as to me it looks and rides perfectly fine the way it was built. To each their own if they want to mod, I don't disrespect anyone who does, as its their ride, but I wouldn't do it to my own. I have a '04 Dark Green Z71 that is all stock, 111k with the exception of a Magnaflow muffler and a few minor changes that are a result of required repairs over the years. I've gotten a lot of flack for keeping mine stock, so its refreshing to see that you do respect the stock look after modding. I am looking forward to seeing Tahiti when she is finished, great video!

Completely left it bone stock, and the only thing i changed was the engine block (last one blew up at 160k).

@ClayBonics Год назад

Not a bad plan. Suspension is a though one. It is cool that you get the ride you want with less body roll. You also have the adjustability for when you tow to firm up the rear. Also probably safer overall with the coil overs because of that stability since you daily it and might have to get out of a situation. But I get what you are saying about the cash. You have to do what you want and make sure you are happy with it. We are just along for the ride. How is the TA?

Glad you changed direction. Have added the larger brake upgrade suggestion on 18" take off wheels and tires to my 2000 Tahoe LS 4wd. 325,000 miles with reman 5.3 st 265k, New dash bezel with 7" DVD head unit. I am considering changing 3.73 gears in the differentials to 3.23 to improve gas mileage. Good/bad idea? If so what bolt on would you suggest to regain some of the lost acceleration from taller gears? What suggestions to cure the Tahoe Shake when going over rough spots in the road. Helwig sway bars? What crate motor upgrade to match with 4L60. Lots of questions. Sorry. The restomod market for 2nd Gen Tahoe is massive. Great videos.

@lsXmatt Год назад

I don’t think changing the gears will improve fuel economy by much. If it did you would probably lose it with engine mods trying to gain acceleration back. You would be better off getting a tune to lean it out a bit to improve mpg.

Thanks. Before getting a dyno tune, do long tube headers and x-pipe dual exhaust system make any sense? Not interested in sound increase just increase performance and mileage.

@JB91710 Год назад

I have the same truck with the gray interior. I don't have much money but the two things that bother me are the stock jacked up rear end and body roll. I think I would install thicker sway bars before I would go through the expensive of a leveling kit. If the truck serves me well up to next spring, I may have the front bumper repainted, the low rear quarter panels replaced and maybe the rockers that are showing some rust. Ok, maybe I will have to install the rear lowering kit too but at 71 years old, I would really dred doing that.

I didn't need brackets for the front discs? I put on new with drilled slotted and they bolted right on.

@GARGaddisAquariumsandReptiles Год назад

i can confirm that you have to use 17'' rims or bigger for the brake swap, i could not get the 16s from my 03 suburban onto the 07 tahoe I swapped rims from, had to remove the brake calipers to get them on.

@grandn8646 Год назад

How much do you want for the front bumper cap? I have a 03 tahoe with 271k miles on it

@samfusaro97 Год назад

I noticed Tahiti has aftermarket headlights. Where did you purchase them and how have they held up? A lot of the stuff on Amazon seem to be hit or miss. You do a great job of explaining and getting to the point without taking too long to get there. Your videos always seem to flow very well.

@stevenayala2324 Год назад

@leviwoodring6101 Год назад

The HD front end looks so good though. All well make it how you want it. Will still look good and you will make some one els happy when they buy the front end from ya.

If you want the biggest brakes possible look into 2022 Tahoe PPV brakes (some Tahoes come upgraded with them too) they are a 6 piston fixed caliper. You will need 20’s to clear them though.

@TheSpoolin77 Год назад

I think you have to have 18” minimum. That’s what surrounds the 6piston calipers on the trail boss models with the black twin spoke wheels. I’ve been dreaming about that mod for my 06 Z-71

@mattm5786 Год назад

For restoring the plastics use lithium trim restoration cubes did my truck a year or so ago and all the plastics still look as good as the day I did it.

@mattm5786 Год назад

It Made the plastics look new

@travissheehan6082 Год назад

The cerakote plastic trim for the textured black stuff is the best ever

@mattm5786 Год назад

@@travissheehan6082 nice I have a 03 Z71 black with the black plastic wheel flares and of course the grey plastic the lithium trim cubes made it look brand new deep black took all of 15 minutes to get them mint. It’s been a good bit over a year now and it’s still held up like the day I did it. Washed it several times and drove it through the winter last year absolutely perfect.

Can I put the ‘05/‘07 front break set on my ‘96 Tahoe?

@mijohnst Год назад

Hey, did you take down the brake video? I can't seem to find it. I saw a 2013 Avalance at the junk yard and was thinking about going back for the front brake but I wanted to see your parts list. Thanks for the channel! Love your work here.

@akjohnny5997 Год назад

hey matt no subwoofer? curious what your take would be, you've done a lot of tasteful mods so far

@marklengal9990 Год назад

Did you keep the upgraded sway bars? I was going to do mine to take out the body roll.

@lsXmatt Год назад

I ended up taking them out. Might put them back in to see how it rides after the rest of the suspension is back to stock.

@romanmedina7977 Год назад

I hit my z71 plastic with the heat gun on my suburban, looks SO GOOD now. Almost new

@Adelatorre_ Год назад

I believe you need to do a software update for the head unit. Check the Sony page I think they have the update on there page where you will need a usb to do it

@jeromeirving4770 Год назад

The factory amp is starting to go out. It was a common issue on the stock head units. Sometimes I hate I know what I know. From being a chevy dealer mechanic

@joey_ua6speed516 Год назад

Back to stock but with a cam 💪💪

@OCTANEslc Год назад

Got to love tahoes!

@ARXIZM Год назад

These wheels in my opinion are the clearest, in general, stock wheels are optimal. don't go against engineering. Good luck bro!

@collinwob Год назад

I like the sleeper idea, but how about tinting those front windows and exhaust?

@headrusch2926 Год назад

If you don't mind, where did you get the remanufactured wheels? They look great!

@lsXmatt Год назад

They’re all over ebay. They cost just under 700 for the set.

@yourpapi737 Год назад

Would you consider shipping that grill?

@RonP0310 Год назад

Wire the amp turn on wire direct to the power wire behind the head unit i had the same issue with my 00 hoe for some reason certin times when changing from radio to bt or usb it freaks out and does not switch pwr

@andremanila2459 Год назад

I'm glad you're turning your truck back to stock. Those blacked out wheels and front bumper looks aweful and cheap, unlike before you modded those that thing looks premium and clean 👌
