    Oil pan gasket on a 4x4

    A/C recharge 99 yukon

    Just a thought. If you are getting temps of 38-40 from your center vent, your system is working quite well. If the temp drop much more, the evaporator will freeze up on you.

    I guess what I am wondering is can I just pull the CV axles and not run into any issues or can I pull the front drive shaft?

    99 Tahoe - Alt & Battery

    Check your battery cables. Mine did something similar a few months ago and sometimes when I would come to a stop, the truck would shutter and shut off......like the torque converter was still locked up.......but my battery cables had worked themselves loose and developed a little corrosion. I...
