I replaced the factory ones on my 07 Tahoe at about 70k miles which was about 5 years... I used OEM replacements from Amazon...

Sweet deal thanks. I've noticed on my truck that every winter for the past two years I hear a cricking sound in the front. It only does it when its cold and the truck sits over night. After I drive around for a bit the noise stops. I'm sure its nothing but have you had that happen on your tahoe?

That sound is the rubber of the front sway bar bushings getting rock hard from the cold. When the bar flexes and rotates with front suspension movement the rubber gripping the bar chatters as the bar slips on the hard rubber...
A few shots of silicone lubricant will remedy it for a while...you can also replace the bar bushings with grease-able ones....
Mine do it too when the temp is below 40

I had the exact problem with my 2011 Silverado. Yes it gets cold in AZ .
There is a recall from GM for this problem. If yours is the same source it sounds like it is coming from the suspension but it is an engine problem.
It only occurred on cold morning - under 40 - and it stopped once the engine warmed up.
