what can i pick off this tahoe for my 99 ecsb
 
Picked up a 04 tahoe for parts 48,000 miles on it. Want to use hydroboost and rear brakes on my 99 silverado. Do I need new lines due to more pressure ? Will front diff bolt right in? Same gear ratio just would be better since it has about 200,000 less miles on it . What else can I use? Torsion bars? Will it help drop it? Front brakes too?

You could get the rear sway bar....

Rear sway will work in a leaf spring set up? could I put a coil spring set up in a silverado? Any advantages to doing it?

Everything except the rear four link and rear end is 100% bolt in

Get the dash bezel and radio bucket so you can have a factory install appearing double din radio. Or if that doesn't interest you send the pieces to me.

Unless your brake lines are rusted bad there shouldn't be any reason to replace them. Brake line is brake line no matter what booster is on the system.

Do you want the whole dash?

Hopefully I will have hydroboost and rear brakes off of the tahoe this weekend, can anyone suggest which brake hoses to get? I know stainless steel braided is the way to go but which ones?

I have no interest in the whole dash. Just the bezel and the radio "bucket" if you will. I will put in in the words of the great John McClain when he was at the air port trying to fax some finger prints into headquarters and the woman at the desk was trying to get him to go out for a drink. "Just the fax mam, just the fax."

Honestly I'm not sure what thats got to do with anything but I've been looking for an excuse to use that quote all week long and finally got it done.

Moving on...

I have the Russell 5 line kit on my truck and am very happy with it :)

I'd snag the door handles and whatever interior pieces that are less worn than yours being so many fewer miles.
