Status: offline I have a 2002 tahoe LS 2wd. most of the tahoes i see are slightly higher in the back than the front. My Tahoe is comepletly level..does anyone know if this is normal?..did this year tahoe come equipped with some type of adjustable suspension where the previous owner could have lowered it in the rear?...how can get the rear of my tahoe to factory settings (if they are not) so that i wont have any problems towing....if any forum members can please help me out with your thoughts asap it would be greatly appreciated

thank you

My 97 was always kind of squatty in the rear, I never overloaded it or did any towing, the axle wasn't in any twisted position, it was more prominent when I put the 31X1050 tires on it. The only thing I could ever come up with is that the leaf springs were weak.
The newer body styles have been coil springs, the easiest way to modify the level of your vehicle would be to add air bags assuming there is nothing wrong with your stock suspension.

Have you compared it against another of the same body style to see if the rear is low or the front is raised? Someone could have put a leveling kit in to raise the front. Or could have dropped the rear with shorter springs.
