    2009 Yukon SLT

    Well, been pretty slammed with work since I got back from the road trip a few weeks ago, but I have the day off today and figured I would update about the mileage. The worst mileage I saw was 16mpg, but majority of the tanks were at about 19-19.5mpg with the cruise set at 85mph. All the...

    2009 Yukon SLT

    I had it tuned back in June when I was out in CA for my wedding. If I remember correctly, it did decent on the return trip home, but that had a lot to do with having the back completely full of stuff (including a fully fabricated axle housing). So hoping for a little better with a pretty empty...

    2009 Yukon SLT

    Well been putting off shocks since I bought the Yukon a year ago,(mainly because this thing rarely gets driven so I forget about ordering them) but with another road trip back to CA in a few weeks, I wanted to get them handled finally. Ordered up some Bilsteins and got the rears installed last...

    Your Vehicles as they sit now....

    The Yukon has turned into my DD the last month or so. As my Z71 needs a new front hub and possible rear diff going out, tried getting it towed in to get fixed today, but AAA screwed me on that.... And the prerunner, just because....

    2009 Yukon SLT

    Honestly, I only test fit the fronts when I had them. And I only tried backing out of my driveway and as soon as I cranked the wheel, it was rubbing on the rear of the wheel well. Even with the 285s, there is one tiny little spot in the passenger rear that rubs around left turns, its an easy...

    2009 Yukon SLT

    Well, while I was waiting to find time to drop the wheels off, I ordered up a Volant intake and got it installed. Got the wheels back a week ago, and had the tires mounted this past Saturday. Pulled the old wheels/tires off one at a time, painted the rotor hats and scrubbed the inner fenders...

    2009 Yukon SLT

    And since, I haven't made enough posts to post an ad in the classifieds, I will share here. So I have the tires that came off the wheels I just got, 305/40r22 Yokohama Parada Spec-X. I am unsure on mileage but they still have alot of tread left. And I also have the OEM steps that came off of...

    2009 Yukon SLT

    Well, Friday night cruising through the local ads on the FB marketplace, came across some 22" gloss black TBSS wheels with tires. Ended up picking them up Saturday afternoon and test fit them today since I had a feeling the 305/40r22s were going to rub, and they did, so will be going to a...

    When replacing stock bags snowballs into a Long Travel '04 Denali

    I know you said you were trying to avoid cutting the rear fenders, but you could always do more of a boxed rear bumper similar the Mazzulla offroad ones.

    2009 Yukon SLT

    Thanks, overall plan with this thing is very minimal, and for the most part it's about there. My main priority is getting my prerunner done..... and that thing eats up alot of moneh

    Got the Belletech 2/4 drop on this weekend. Pretty happy with how it sits, just need to get it aligned next weekend, and then get some wheels and tires.

    2007+ Yukon Grill Surround

    Yeah, wasn't planning on rattle can. I know the chrome takes quite a bit of prep work, but like you said, finding some one to do the proper prep is another thing. I have been lucky enough to find a really good painter, and I do have to have the rear bumper and one handle repainted (previous...

    2007+ Yukon Grill Surround

    Alright, so I have been searching a little here and there, and no luck. I am looking for a paint to match grill surround for my 2009 Yukon. I have found a couple of pictures of them painted black... so my question, is there a source for PTM grill surrounds, or are people having good luck...
