SMOKIN’ SS – Part 2
If you’ve ever built a car from scratch, then you know that getting the basic body and chassis together is not the tough part. What’s tough are all the details that eat up hours, days and weeks, but without this attention to detail, the project would suffer.
ON THE LEVEL
The ’07 Tahoe, Chevrolet’s premature baby, hit the street in late March 2006. Introducing the next generation of Tahoes so early was part of some master marketing scheme, born and nurtured in the hallowed halls of Chevrolet corporate. In any case, the ’07 Tahoe’s rear ride height measured 23-1/8 inches from the center of the hub to the lip of the fenderwell, while the front measured only 20-1/4 inches. As usual, the rear stood considerably higher than the front.

Part # 800134
With the popularity explosion of the GM Squarebody, finding one that’s affordable and in decent shape is getting harder by the day. A great alternative to the Squarebody is the OBS “old body style” generation (1988-1998) of GM trucks. Many consider these trucks as being the next big thing.
Expanding on their wildly successful Street & Performance Series of steering gears, Borgeson Universal now offers the only quick ratio power steering box to replace the Delphi 800 series in the 1988-1998 Chevrolet and GMC OBS trucks. This all-new power steering box has a quick 12.7:1 ratio with firm modern steering feel. The Borgeson Street & Performance power steering box will bolt directly to the stock location and fit to the original power steering pitman arm, steering shaft and power steering hoses.
All Borgeson power steering boxes are assembled and tested in the USA from globally sourced components and have a 3 year warranty. To learn more, go to Borgeson’s website or call 860-482-8283.
