I have had this suburban front clip lying around for a while so I decide to put it on so I can get the turn signals behind the grill. I don't know why I didn't just swap the core support so don't ask. It’s on now. Not really sure when I did it and didn't take pics of the swap. While I was at the salvage yard I found some sweet Tahoe power bucket seats and replaced mine. Still have the seat belts in the seat so no big change. Jump ahead to 2011 and I decide I better get the phantom grill and drop kit pieces I need while the wife says it’s ok to spend that kind of money on a vehicle that doesn't move (tax refund). Here is where the drop starts.
First the U-bolts from the lift needed to be modified a little
Then I discovered the engineers really were not thinking of future maintenance when designing the front hanger. Seriously who puts the bolt in from the shielded side? All you would have had to do was assemble it from the other side or make a hole in the panel. On second thought maybe I should be talking with the assembly line workers.
