    Looking to get a SSV

    I have a 2007 LTS that was purchased at Fed auction. It was more of an "administrative" vehicle, so didn't have some of the mods. It is 4wd, 5.3L. I've had it for about 3 years now. I've added a leveling kit to the front and a 1.5" block lift in the rear. I have Firestone Bags in the rear...

    2007 Tahoe Loose Steering

    Before I take my 4x4 to the shop, I was curious if there an aftermarket rack and pinion that had steering dampeners on them. I have slightly larger wheels, but nothing crazy. Just have a leveling kit on it. I noticed it wondering the road a bit too much, discovered a bad wheel bearing and...

    Sound Dampening

    I picked up a 2007 Tahoe a couple of years ago. Been adding stuff to it ever since. Lately, I've been focusing my attention to making it a quieter ride. Sure, I got a little oversized tires, but most of my issue is wind noise. I have already replaced all of the carpet/pad with new carpet and...

    Towing in 3rd gear or 4th gear

    I had an odd issue where a bolt backed out of my trans bell housing into my torque converter. Unsure of damage and such, I replaced it with a converter that locked up differently. It was more sold as a towing enhancement, but it really helps my hoe going up hills and such. Not near as much...

    2007 front seats swap

    Oh, forgot to mention: I have a second AGM battery, that has an automatic isolator from the starting battery (charges when engine is running). This battery is kept charged while the engine is off from a solar charger and the panels. On this second battery, I have my ham radio gear, 1500w...

    2007 front seats swap

    PPS = Passenger Presence System. This engages the passenger airbag. I need to get mine back out to my interior guy. We are going to pull the PPS from the old, and install on the new so the BCM is happy. Yeah, I'll get some pics. Currently, I pulled the large roof rack off, as the wind noise...

    2007 front seats swap

    Ok, I can now say I read the post. When I got my seats, the seller provided a pin out diagram. Now, my 2007 didn't have heating, memory, lumbar, or airbags in the driver. Also, no power in the passenger. Now both sides has full power. We are ignoring the heating, memory and airbags, as the...

    2007 front seats swap

    I'll go read that page too, but I just put seats from a 2011 Tahoe LTZ into my 2007 Tahoe LT. Only issue was the Passenger Precence System. Seems that system needs to be pulled from the old seat and installed on the new it cleanly match up. But, again, I'll read that post too.

    Guy installed a Echo dot in his car, interesting

    Heh, I gotta share this: I bought a 1989 Chevy Truck (4x4, 5 speed, 350). It was a rough ranch truck that I've been slowly fixing up. Still in the dirty rust stage, but at least the drive train is good and a good solid suspension. I picked up my daughter from school with it one day. She was...

    Is there a dash replacement DIY?

    I have a 2007 Tahoe LT. I have the crack on the driver side and by the airbag. Rattles like hell. For the time being, I put a carpet kit over it. Still rattles, but at least I don't have to look at it. I was at my Brother's shop doing a 1.5" rear lift on it and checking some ABS/Stabilitrac...

    ABS, Stabilitrac and Park Assist Error codes

    I have a 2007 Tahoe LT, 5.3 4wd. A couple of weeks ago, my Service Park Assist error came on the dash. Shortly after, my ABS and Stabilitrack also came on. My brother, who would help me further, but goes back to the hospital Monday for another round of Chemo, put his fancy Snapon Scanner on...

    Odd Engine Stall Issue

    Yeah, I am I am nearing a 1/4 tank. Just ran some errands. All short distances. I figure when it does it again, I'll test the gas cap "release" of pressure. I just cranked the cap, seems to click well. If it does narrow down to the fuel pump, I would think it would be pickup tube on it...

    Odd Engine Stall Issue

    So, this is goofy. 2007 Tahoe 5.3L. Full Tank, fresh fuel, runs great. When it gets to about 1/2 a tank, when I come to a stop, from time to time, the engine will stop. As the fuel level gets closer to 1/4 tank, it happens more and more. As it gets to below 1/4, it runs rough. I fill...

    AC Oddity

    So the fun continues. After resetting the BCM, I decided to try to reset the connection on the AC Panel in the dash, after reading a few that noted success with this. Nope. So, I purchased a new replacement for it. Nope. So again, here are the symptoms: 1. No defrost 2. No floor 3...
