    Nivomat load leveling shock absorber Conversation to BILSTEIN

    I just did the smooth ride conversion on my 09 Hoe LT. Used Moog springs and put Bilstien 5100s on all 4 corners. It raised the rear ride height quite a bit but the ride and I kid you not, is like driving off the floor new. I may at a later time try to level her but I’m gonna let them settle a...

    Does anybody want to sell me their "Defender" badge?

    They sell these outright at some of the K9 association online stores. I'm a member so not sure if that matters or not if you want to buy one.

    A/C Belt

    Good heavens! What a pain. Guess that changes my plans this weekend. Crap! No tensioner on my 09 either.

    Squeaking serpentine belt during a turn

    Can't add anything that you haven't already suspected. Pulley is probably going bad and the extra tasking when turning the wheel might be causing the bad pulley to drag? I'd suspect it to freeze up and throw your belt at anytime if that is the problem. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

    16 Inch Steel PPV Rims?

    Check that link I posted, quite a bit of info on there. It depends also on what year model you were looking at, 4wd or 2wd, PPV or SSV. Law Enforcement utilizes both PPV and SSV depending on the agency and what task they are using it for.

    16 Inch Steel PPV Rims?

    Check this page. It has a lot of good info on it. I'm showing 2006 as the last year they did 16" rims. http://www.sizemytires.com/make/chevy/tahoe#all

    Ball Joints 09 Hoe/85K miles

    Second opinion on my ball joints. Some wear but not near enough to replace. Looks like the tire shop boys were wanting to make some extra cash.

    Driveshaft or oil leak?

    Yes sure do. I wouldn't probably tackle that either. I don't have the tools that I used to have.

    Ball Joints 09 Hoe/85K miles

    Hate to hear that, but at least it sounds like it's not all too odd for that to happen. I'm thinking along the same lines though, if I'm going to do uppers, I might as well rebuild as much of it as I can while it's down.

    Driveshaft or oil leak?

    I've seen some threads on other sites dealing with rear main seals. I just was pretty sure I saw three or four spots dripping like it had blown around under there when driving or something. Hope you get it nailed down.

    Ball Joints 09 Hoe/85K miles

    Anyone else had any early wearing ball joints? Guy at tire shop said it's uppers, I'm trying to get in and get a second opinion but seemed a little low mileage (85K) for ball joints. :wtf:

    She is finally done!!!!

    Sic but I've gotta say dump the bull bar. It's kind of like a Wall Street Exec in a formal tuxedo wearing a straw cowboy hat.

    Weathertech floor liners

    Speaking from experience. I've had two different units assigned to me over the years that had that black rubber like floor finish. I had mats with a good plain old rubber bottom side to them and it seemed to help hold them. On that thought however, any dust build up, rocks, etc, acts like ball...

    Water leak rear passenger side?

    Supposedly there are some drains up there. I just did a google search and found some info. Some of it is in reference to sun roofs but here is a link that sounds alot like what your dealing with. http://chevroletforum.com/forum/tahoe-suburban-25/water-leak-rear-cargo-area-71798/

    Water leak rear passenger side?

    Any evidence of it leaking down from up high? Headliner? Just a thought.. If you've taken off your roof rack, those set screw holes for the roof rack are supposed to be sealed at the bottom but some guys have reported leaks. Mine were sealed but I put in set screws and silicone to make sure.

    Driveshaft or oil leak?

    That seems to be dripping from several points from what I see. If you just drove it prior to the video, possibly the filter was dripping bad enough for air flow to blow it around under there causing multiple drips? I just put on a K&N filter, hand tight of course as prescribed. Three days...

    Ball Joint Help

    I've got 85K on my 09. Tire guy said my uppers are in need of replacement. Since it was a chain tire store that 's kind of known for running up a list of other $$ items, I'm going to get a second opinion. Didn't look like a whole lot of play to me but its a critical component so I'm going to...

    Michelin or Bridgestone tires ?

    I bought some Michelin Defender LTX M/S2's to stay away from that 10 ply ride. They are real good so far. I had Nitto Terra Grapplers on before, same size but stayed away from those this time due to the last set broke belts within the first 30K and couldn't get a balance on them after that. I...
