Bought this 03 tahoe today for $800 runs and drives great. My hope was to be able to part it out and end up with a free motor and a few small things I needed for my Escalade. Also picked up a th400 trans I’m gonna build on the side and prep for a turbo 5.3l and then down the road pick up a first gen S10 to put it in as more of a race truck. Right now I have 5 cars total and not enough parking so I may have to post up one of them for sale and I’m kind of leaning towards trying to sell the insight 😢. Hopefully I can sell stuff for cheap off the tahoe to get it gone quickly. If anyone needs anything from it let me know.

Lemme know, I'll do it

I gave my welding neighbor a trailer so he owes me again. But thank you for the offer.

guessing it's for his 'hoe

and any particular reason you'd be pulling the LQ9 for that tahoe's 5.3? if for not bad reasons, i have been contemplating a short block swap...
or were you saying the 'free motor' was in addition to nabbing things off it for the Escalade?

No the 5.3 is just gonna be a spare motor, i wanna go through it and get it ready for boost. The Tahoe had some pretty much brand new bilstein shocks on the back I swapped over, also I took the third row seating out for my caddy since the third row I got with the caddy had broken hinger or something. The lq9 in the Cadillac is healthy as can be.
