How do you install lift kit on 99 Tahoe?

Answer 1

Most kits consist of a dropped front axle and a rear spring spacer.

For the rear it's pretty straight forward, undo the u-bolts that hold the axle to the springs, insert the spacer blocks and reinstall the extended u-bolts.

For the front you will need to remove the bolts that hold the spindles in place as well as the spring mounts and steering controls, and reinstall them all on the new front axle assembly, a little more complicated but still only an hour or so of work.

Answer 2

First off, excellent choice in a vehicle. Second, It has what is called an IFS front end suspension **Find some one who knows what they are doing**. If you would like to save some money you can put the rear part on fairly easy. 1. Lift the trucks back end off the ground by the tow package, take off rear tires. 2. Place a pumped up jack underneath the middle of the rear axle with tow stands not far below. 3. once the rear axle is supported by the jack release the bolts from the shocksand the 4 u bolts holding the leaf back to the axle 5. Drop the axle unbolt the leaf packs 6. Bolt on the the nexleaf packs. 7. do exverything in reverse (you might want to record it and play it in reverse to see how this would be done)
