Lowered 07's
Sorry, I haven't snapped a pic of it yet. Dang snow and ice has turned our roads into a salt bed, so needless to say our black hoe is about half white!
[/align][/align]I was thinking about that wire when I did the rear. When I took off the shocks and lowered the axle, I noticed that the rear abs wires were very tight. I quickly jacked it up a bit to take the tension off. Maybe that was the trouble? The weird thing is that one guy on here put his back to stock and the issue went away. Kinda screwy. It isn't a big deal, but might be worth looking into replacing those abs wires to see if they are the culprits.[/align][/align]I'll take some pics soon, and yes, the rear does look just a bit lower. Nothing bad, but a bit. I was wondering if I adjust the autoride links just a bit, if the airbags can raise it up 1/4" or so.[/align]

I had decided against the Eibach spring only kit. I couldnt find out for sure what the measurements on the kit were. Some said, 1.8/2.4, some said 2/3, some said 2/2. So I wasnt sure and i didnt want the 2/2. Plus, with just the spings it would have lost the ride quality.
I have since returned the Eibach and purchased the mcgaugys 2/3 kit. It arrived yesterday and is sitting in my garage. I am now a bit skeptical about putting it on.

Hey dirtywork,
Thanks for commenting! I was wonder how the ride on Eibach was and "riding on pillows" is just what I wanted to hear! Is your Tahoe an LTZ?

Just lowered the tahoe with eibach springs non-auto and must say i think i made a mistake when i go over bumbs my rear springs sound like there knocking(not all the time)i have a gibson cat-back which had to be moved do to hitting when it was lowered now all it does is vibrate i think im putting back the stock springs.
Most likely the install and not the springs. You also need to trim the bump stops to gain back the travel lost by lowering. Did the installer reuse the rubber spring isolator, that keeps the vibrations and sounds down.
Dont take it off, have it installed correctly. If you paid money, have them re do the install.
