z71 convertion kit for 2001 Tahoe

[thelawgiver]

Does anyone know if there somewhere a person can buy a kit to convert a 2001 LT Tahoe to into a z71? Or are there part that can be bought to do it?

is your LT 4wd? i guess the only difference is the badges, easily bought, a painted grill, the wheels, recovery hooks, painted bumpers, and a body lift (and bigger tires if you want, a/t or m/t).

All the Z71 kit is is the stickers, an emblem or two and a skid plate underneath, along with heavier duty shocks. Its all minor stuff that is easy to put on, but I am not sure if it is really worth it.

I would like to know where to get the painted Z71 Tahoe front and rear bumpers. Because I saw a 2002 Silverado with the Z71 Tahoe painted grill and bumpers and it looked clean.

Add a leaf to the back (if it has leaf springs) it will sit up better and all of the z71s I've seen have and extra leaf in the 88-99 z71s versus most of the 1500's. You could also get some more front end height by cranking the torsion bars a little. did both to my truck and added 1 inch blocks to the rear. Hauls better now

The front valance on the Tahoe is different from the Z71 Tahoe. The Z71 version has round fogs and a slightly different profile. The whole setup will run you about $300 from the dealer.
