    Project: Blackout

    Looks like I'm getting a new set of wheels before long. I won a sponsorship with Anthem Wheels. Because I want -12 offset, I think I'm going to bite the bullet on a RC 3.5 soonish, unless I run across a good deal on their 5" kit. This might be a good opportunity to put some trail graps on...

    Transmission Temperature When Not Towing

    I have a diablo intune. It made a huge difference in how it drives. Definitely worth the $311 I paid for it. Many here like the Blackbear tunes... No experience with them so I can't compare... Definitely a diablo sport fan though

    Transmission Temperature When Not Towing

    3.42's come with the max tow package by default, but 3.73's would definitely give you more get up and go. The shop should be able to adjust your speedo. It's something the dealer can definitely do if not. My tuner allows me to calibrate for gear changes and tire changes as well.

    Installed RC Leveling Kit and now a knock when I turn the wheel...

    I make it a point now to go in and check every oil change when I grease.

    Project: Blackout

    Haha, ok. I had already decided that the next mod would be a locker... so I'll just continue to look for a new grille that I like.

    Project: Blackout

    They're 20x9, 25 offset. Just slightly further out than stock. Heck, I was rubbing slightly with the factory size 275/55's without the level. Still haven't fixed the rubbing issue, not really concerned about it now. I just watch and make sure I don't go to full lock in reverse.

    Project: Blackout

    Took it deer hunting this weekend. Definitely see a difference in this and my old Sierra... That locker in the Sierra really made a hide difference in traction. Guess I'll be looking to improve function before I improve looks going forward

    Installed RC Leveling Kit and now a knock when I turn the wheel...

    How did you install it? I don't have any abnormalities from mine. Just curious if maybe you left something a little loose? I did have to go back in about a week after installing and tighten my ball joints back up. Somehow they loosened up and I started getting a bad vibration. Torqued them...

    2010 Tahoe LT. When I got it (except for wheels that I put on)- After blacking most everything out, 33" tires, and RC 2" Level- Will eventually have an RC 3.5 or 5" kit on it.

    Transmission Temperature When Not Towing

    Just remember that even if you do all of that and increase the towing ability mechanically, legally, your gvwr and gcvwr do not change. Odds of getting weighed for such a small load are very slim, but just something to keep in mind.

    Transmission Temperature When Not Towing

    Yeah, that's about normal. Obviously air temp is going to play a factor in it somewhat. I've seen 185 during stop and go city traffic, but generally 160-170 on the highway without a trailer behind me. Been over 220 on the highway with a trailer that was catching a lot of wind.

    Looking For Specifications Using Vin Number

    If you have GU4, you have a 3.08 gear ratio. Good for mileage, not good if you're towing 6k lbs. It'll pull it, but without the trans cooler, it'll get hot quick and you'll really be turning some RPM's at highway speed (don't ask me how I know this). I've read that a Tahoe with the HD towing...

    Looking For Specifications Using Vin Number

    In the glovebox, there is a list of codes. K5L is the HD towing package, which comes with the trans cooler and 3.42 gear ratio.

    Air Intake

    Oh... sounds like it may have one of those gimmick ebay junk intake fan deals. Can you get a pic of it? You may be right, it may be causing your problem. If that's what it is, I"d take it out.

    Air Intake

    I'd look in to why your last one failed after only 2 weeks. Do you have an aftermarket air filter that may be throwing a bunch of oil in to it?

    Project: Blackout

    I think I've found the grill I want to put on. Would have to paint it before I put it on, but I think it's the look I want. Would help if I could find a pic of a black one. Surely someone has done it. It's from Paramount Restyling, and has vertical bars instead of mesh, but it's the same...

    Leveling Kit

    Up or down? If up (which I assume based on the products you mentioned), I'd suggest a rough country 2" kit. I've got one on mine (4x4) and am very pleased with it. There are potential plans to go up a bit more, but for now, it works well. Cost me about $60 and less than an hour to install...

    I believe that is the Mocha Steel Metallic color.
