Re: 04 chevy tahoe rear axle on 67 1/2 ton coil
tahoes have a 4 link with coils, not leaves. I'm not sure what the axle tube O.D. or overall width is but I could measure mine tomorrow. I had also pondered this but I wanted to adapt the tahoe 4 link onto my truck so I could get rid of the leaf setup.

you don't need to "add" disc brakes....they were factory equipment after 2000. use the front disc system too and you will have modern (factory) 4 wheel disc with 6 lugs....you could hide them under stock or retro wheels ofr the stealth look. and the wider rear axle will look awesome since gm trucks always have a narrower track width on the back than on the front

Re: 04 chevy tahoe rear axle on 67 1/2 ton coil
I did a quick guestimate of the width hub to hub on my silverado and it looks to be 68-69 inches, which is significantly wider than my 67. You also have to remember the 99+ trucks run rims that have a ton of offset, to have a wider, more stable track width.
