    Possible trade my truck for an Envoy...What should I do?

    ***update*** So it's official. I bought the Envoy a few weeks ago. I havn't regretted it yet! The Yukon sold yesterday. I've let my paid subscription to TYF run out as I won't be needing it. Hopefully by hosting all my pics in my profile here, all of my how-to's and other posts that...

    Possible trade my truck for an Envoy...What should I do?

    UPDATE: I still have the truck. Must be a sign from above. The first buyer said I took too long to get the cert and he bought an Explorer in the mean time and so backed out. The second buyer was too scared of the original kms on the tranny and backed out. The third buyer didn't like the...

    Installing rocker switches...

    Good question. The switches on the right already in the blank are snug with little play. The ones not installed yet on the left are too loosy goosy for my tastes. That's because when I dremeled out the left first then dremeled out the right. I just made the first hole on the left too big...

    Possible trade my truck for an Envoy...What should I do?

    So here we are a week later. I still have my Yukon. It was harder to certify than I thought. The frame had started to rot under the front passenger side where it starts to drop down. Apparently that's common to OBS. IDK.... It got a plate/patch welded on by an MTO certfied shop last...

    Possible trade my truck for an Envoy...What should I do?

    I'm on my way to my first showing in one hour! If it sells in less than 12 hours, maybe I didn't ask for enough $$$!!! We'll see what happens... ---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 AM ---------- Well the guy bought it pending my certification of it...

    Problem with cold start

    A slow overnight leak in the footvalve of the fuel line? Try this one morning: - Turn the key on, wait three seconds or until you can't hear the fuel pump anymore, then turn it off. - Do that four times. - Start your truck normally. If it starts on the first try, it's a leaky foot...

    1996 Yukon with whipple supercharger

    That is a nice looking truck. Obviously a lot of TLC went into that rig. Only thing I might change is the color of that push bar, it sticks out like a sore thumb. Kinda looks abit like a beaver tooth. Might look better painted black? Just my $0.02. However, you can't argue with...

    My Brakes is chafing

    That really sounds like a stuck/seized caliper. Is only one pad of the two on the right side down to the metal, while the other is fairly ok? Calipers are cheap too, so when you replace the rotors and pads again I would also replace the calipers. You can also take this oportunity...

    Possible trade my truck for an Envoy...What should I do?

    Not yet, I'm waiting for input from my Dad. He's old and in bed already, so I'll call him in the morning. Besides I'll probably be 'borrowing' from him anyways... Ha.. It's handy having the 'bank of Dad', but I still dislike the act of borrowing. I did put my TRUCK up for sale tonight...

    My Tahoe Mods - 98 Tahoe

    Gotcha about towing #'s. Still good stuff though. That's 17mpg. I swear I'm up in the 15's and 16's. I had to google the Streak to see if it had Bluetooth. Yup, it does so Yes it will work. You only need two things to monitor trans temp. 1) THIS OBDII Bluetooth adapter for $16.60CDN...

    That's a pretty harsh rule... Couldn't you just have the apple guys turn auto correct off? ---------- Post added at 10:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 PM ---------- OMG u l33Ts33K LOL... Translation; Oh good. Your posts are no longer in a foreign language. :D

    Possible trade my truck for an Envoy...What should I do?

    So the common issue here is the going smaller. And your all right. My wife and I thought of that while we were test driving it. She asked what vehicle would we go to Newfoundland again in if we didn't have the bigger Yukon. The GMT360 platform when loaded up with kids, dogs and luggage...

    1996 Yukon with whipple supercharger

    Welcome. I too would like to see pics! I've recently tried the R42TS plugs and they didn't work too well. It was pointed out to me that they are too short (pics HERE). It was also pointed out to me that I needed; I've got some now, but havn't put them in yet... Who knew that one missing...

    H3 HID Kit and Projector housings.

    I agree with you on that. To that end, I just adjusted my housings downward a little. Didn't make much of a difference from the drivers seat, and it does help with the glare for oncomming traffic. TYC made a nice kit, but I think they stopped production of them...

    Hot air!

    Hopefully your not into replacing the flappers. It's a fairly big job. You have to take off the entire dashboard. Did you see anything binding in there?

    Possible trade my truck for an Envoy...What should I do?

    As some of you may know, Ive been considering dumping my 99 Yukon and getting into something newer. There are several issues bothering me. Rust is one of them, and the fact that after all my mods I just got to the level of an OEM 5.3l, and it drives like a full size 12year old truck. I...

    My Tahoe Mods - 98 Tahoe

    Darn, that actually pretty good fuel consumption. Wait! You get that towing? Also if you have an android phone. I can show you how to get Trans temp for less than $20CDN.

    Hot air!

    The venting controls are to the up and on the left side of that box. Stick your head up in there as best as you can and then move the control knobs. Can you see the controls moving around? Any binding? I"m guessing that the flappers are not moving in the full range of motion. Because...

    H3 HID Kit and Projector housings.

    Well at least with our trucks, most of us who buy HID's also replace our old faded fresnel lensed OEM housings with new clear lensed aftermarket stuff! And I think that your setup just proved a point that was being made here sometime ago. Someone had asked if the projector lens was any good...

    undercoating

    Sorry about the delay. I looked on thier site, and it appears not. I wonder why? The answer is probably yes, but under a different brand name. I don't know what that brand name would be though... Sorry. ---------- Post added at 03:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 PM ----------...

    what gears to use for my 99 Tahoe

    After looking at this chart, isn't MPG and Performance mutally exclusive? Don't you kinda have to pick one or the other? You could stay in the middle, but that's close to stock, so why bother modding?
