Is there a difference in suspension on 2015-2019 Silverado's and Tahoe's?
I know this is primarily a car forum but I know there are some GM techs and mostly Gm gurus on here so thought id have some luck with yall lol.
A friend of mine is wanting to lift his wifes 2019 2wd tahoe about 3-4", I was suggesting a spindle lift to him but I can only find them for the silverados??? To my knowledge the Silverado's and Tahoe's and Suburban's have the exact same front suspension setup? What am I missing here?
What I would do is look up the part numbers and see if they are shared, like on rockauto or something. If they aren't then there is something making them different. Even if the suspension design is the same they could be different.
They also may not have a full kit because the pickup use leaf spring and the SUV use coil springs, even if they use the same spindle. I put a spindle lift on a 2003 2wd suburban, so it was available for them.
Pretty sure 07 to 19 is the same, front strut/spring and rear coils/shocks. And 2wd vs 4wd is the front bearings are closed off on the 2wd and the 4wd is hollow and splined for the CV shafts to go through. Rear is usually lifted with coil spacers. Couple kits I found second is the rough country kit, pretty affordable to me. I also like the bilstien 5100 shocks as an upgrade to either.
Thanks guys, it appears the spindle part numbers are the same as long as the control arms match up (stamped steel, aluminum, or cast steel) so I ordered the spindles to keep the stock suspension geometry up front and spacers for the rear. Will report back to confirm fitment in case anyone else looks this up later.
