    Electrical problem... need help

    My 07 Tahoe has been doing the following for about a year or so: I'll start it up and realize that the clock is reset. Also, the AC will be set to 74 degrees for driver and passenger, fan level 1, dash/floor vent combo selected, and aux engaged. Once it starts doing this it will do it about...

    No more front end clank clank

    So this doesn't have to do with a lifted suspension (edit, maybe shoulda put this in street suspension... sorry, didn't see that category), and most of you guys will probably be like "yeah duh"... But this is for people who don't know what a sway bar link is like my idiot self. I've been...

    KO2s on the Z71 Tahoe :)

    After thinking about it for literally years, I decided to slap 275/65/18 on the Z71 Tahoe. I will offer my unused CCM level kit to anyone here at the TYF dirt cheap. I'll post comments later, but here's some pics...

    Does installing CCM 2.5/1 require changing shocks too?

    Hey guys, I have gone back and forth a million times on what tires to get, what size, and to install or not to install the CCM leveling kit that's been sitting in my shed for 2 years. I have a black 07 Z71 Tahoe sitting stock everything right now in regards to tires, wheels and suspension. One...

    Nitto Ridge Grappler

    so it is finally just about time to get some new tires. I have debated with myself endlessly on what to get for the 07 Z71 Tahoe. I am really starting to look hard at the Nitto Ridge Grapplers. It's hard to find much info on these newer tires. Anyone have any experience with them? Some pics on...

    285/65/18 without level kit, will it work?

    Hey guys, it's been a long time since I've been in here. I'm getting kind of close to the time where I will be getting new tires. This is for a 2007 Z71 Tahoe. I have had the CCM leveling kit on the shelf in my garage for a long time now. I'm starting to consider not using it. I kind of like...

    Want to trade my 1" rear spacers for 1.5"

    I figure this is a long shot but anyone want to trade? I have new in the box 1" CCM rear spacers. I'm thinking I want to put in 1.5" spacers to keep a little forward rake. Or perhaps I'd trade my front 2.5" for some 2"...

    Spark plugs and wires

    I understand the plugs are supposed to be good to 100K. I'm at 85K and think I'd like to just go ahead and replace them. I've read some conflicting information. What was the gap on thee stock plugs for an 07? What I hear is that the gap gets larger over time. What is the gap GM is reccomending...

    Bfg t/a ko2

    Curious what some thoughts are on this tire. I think it looks great. I ran 2 sets of the TKOs on my Tacoma and loved them, got 60K out of both sets. I've considered TKOs for my Tahoe but to my eye I don't think they look quite right for the SUV, a little too square. These look like they've been...

    Z71 rear shocks

    So I was going to get under my truck and clean up ans repaint the red rear shocks, they look crappy and you can see them from the street with my truck in the driveway and you can see them where I park at work. It drives me nuts. Since shocks don't seem to be that expensive, maybe I'll just...

    John Weeks tune

    I feel sort of guilty posting this here and even thinking about it really since Blackbear is such an active vendor and Jenna has chimed in to help with several questions I've posted. So I'm trying to dance around this delicately but an opportunity to get an in person tune has come up and I...

    Wideband o2 sensor

    Read somewhere that if you're going to get a tune you should install a high quality wideband O2 sensor first. Is there any truth to this? If so, can someone elaborate?

    Amber padlock light in dash won't go off

    I came home today from being out of town for a few days and the battery in my Tahoe was completely dead. Its an 07 Tahoe LT Z71. I jumped it off and now have a charger on it. I couldn't figure out what could have drained the battery but now I notice something. When I lock the doors with the fob...

    Subwoofer/box & amp selection. Car stereo guys...

    I'm looking to add a little thump to my Tahoe. I have a 10 inch bazooka that was in my Tacoma truck but it's just not getting it done in the much bigger Tahoe. The rest of my sound system is stock .What kind of sub woofer set up sounds good in our trucks. I listen to mostly rock and classic rock...

    Signature request Please

    I was wondering if someone could make me a sig if you have a little time? I have a pick that I like, and then a couple other versions that I added some contrast and took some color out that I really like. But you are the artist. I'd like to incorporate an American flag (with color) and the name...

    Borla Pro XS, Airaid Jr, SLP Tip installed... Video

    After reading a bunch of posts here and chatting with some folks, I decided to replace the muffler and delete the resonator rather than go with a full catback system. I am very happy with it. Here are the part numbers and some comments/questions... and a vid :burnout...

    Resonator deleted... vid

    Got bored and impatient and hacked off the resonator. Gotta decide where to go from here with exhaust. Corsa Touring and ARH headers would be nice, but for that kind of money alot of things would be nice... :licklips: Thinking about muffler replacement and SLP tips, LT's down the road. Youtube...

    Rainy day mods/tweaks

    So it looks like its going to rain here the next couple of days. I've got no detailing left to do (not any I feel like doing anyway). I'm looking for some cheap & easy mods or tweaks I can do. Yesterday I cleaned the MAFS and throttle body. The MAFS didn't really look dirty but the butterfly...

    Keep stock ECM or send it back?

    I'm curious what you guys are doing with your stock ECM's after you get a tune. Are you sending them in for a deposit refund or keeping them? I can see where keeping it might help re-sale to a traditionalist. I'm not sure that I understand the reason why some guys put the stock one in when they...

    Car wash soap

    I've been looking through the threads and haven't really found one that answers my question. Really I have three questions. I know I'm splitting hairs, but we all love our Tahoes/Yukons/Escalades, that's why we're here. Detailing is decent work and it takes time and we all want the best results...
