    Thanks, I appreciate that. I know how you’re feeling at the few weeks, sorry for your loss as well. It’s rough. Thanks for checking out the thread. More to come.

    Black or Gray Mats on Pewter Interior?

    I agree, if it won’t match then contrast it is. I do like my mats to blend with floor color and if it’s a noticeable shade different, it may as well be a different color because it would drive me crazy.

    Running Board Help

    I would put the bolts back in or use shorter bolts just to keep dirt, dust, mud and water out of the cavities. A little anti seize on the threads and even a flat washer with an o-ring between the body panel and flat washer would be worth doing. I do whatever I can to prevent a panel from rotting...

    Last Monday, 4-24 I finally went in for surgery on my foot. They put a hole on each side and put a tube through. One side they went in with a camera and the other with tools and relief cut my tendons. Been 5 days now and it feels like the tendons are balled up just in front of my heal when I...

    Beginning of April I had to do the rear brakes on the Esky. I thought it wasn’t that long ago I just did them but I guess it was in ‘19. Straight forward brake job until I got to the drivers side and the rotor didn’t wanna come off. The parking brake shoe wore a groove into the inside mating...

    It kept me busy though. Both frame rails were rusted through so I replaced them. Chipped and cleaned all the rust scale off everything, cut it out and replaced it or sealed it with rust convertor then coated it with POR15. I boxed in all the “C” channel on the side rails too for added strength.

    Decided to fix some rusty side panels on our EZGO at work and it turned into a complete nightmare project. The more I removed tackling the rust the worse it got.

    This winter we didn’t get much snow here at home. Maybe plowed 2-3 times at work and only twice with the plow I put on my truck. We did get a few cold snaps and had some water lines break at work which was the reason Nick went north before I could leave. Heat trace failure is never a good thing...

    Also did the brakes on the enclosed trailer. I wanted to do this over the summer but with moving the garage and the yard being wet every time we were up, it didn’t happen. I did complete backing plates, shoes, drums, bearings, seals and caps on all 4. This summer the axles will be coming off...

    Before the season started and after the garage was back together I also did some work to the Nytro I bought for Jack and Jess. I replaced some bearings on the rear suspension, put a new set of slides on and replaced the carbides on the skis. The year prior the sled as used by Jack twice, my...

    Nick was gung-** this year, but rightfully so. There were times when I couldn’t get off work until Wednesday and he went up on Monday by himself. A lot has to do with the fact that when we used to ride together in the late 90’s early 2000’s we would always have to pay for lodging. Having a place...

    Season was slow getting started and would snow then warm up and melt. We chased the snow and hood trails all over the state of Wisconsin and into UP of Michigan, even ended up on the border of Minnesota and Wisconsin at one point. We put on about 2000 miles on our sleds and I didn’t even drive...

    As you know, we got the garage moved and all set up and then I picked up another sled. And of course I couldn’t leave it alone after I got it. Did some clutch work to it, checked it over and replaced anything that showed signs of wear in the suspension, changed the fluids and filters, added a...

    I’m having a hard time catching up with everything that’s happened here. Even reading as fast as I can you guys are going non stop. I try to take about 45 minutes to an hour before I go to sleep to read up on things but end up smacking myself in the face with my phone as I pass out while...

    Why won’t the YouTube video link? Just on my end? Just look up the deslugger.

    Vibrating noise

    Without hearing the noise it’s hard to make an educated guess as to what it is. Worst case scenario I’ve come across with an intermittent rattling noise when switching on ac was on an older Buick. That one had me stumped for about 4 hrs because with a stethoscope it sounded like it was coming...

    99 Yukon starter ground cable

    Starter grounds to the engine. Do you mean the power cable? Don’t replace with a junkyard part, bring cable in to parts store and they can match it up to get you one the same length or close to it.

    Every other day something folks! Water pouring out of the HVAC vents over passenger seat driver side

    There are drain holes in the rear as well as the front. I soaked mine with WD40 and then used low pressure 30psi max to blow the lines clear. Heard a lot of stuff blow out. Fronts blow into the cowling area and rears blow down into the B pillars down into the rockers. Used to have a schematic...

    Please help with my 2014 Tahoe LTZ brakes

    A vibration while braking can be caused by suspension components being worn. The strut being attached to the spindle that holds the hub bearing that the rotor is attached to can resonate the vibration throughout the vehicle from a worn suspension component. Don’t limit yourself to just focusing...

    Excuse my absence, having to put Lola down was ******* the entire family. My daughter looks for her in the stars almost every night still. Can’t believe how bad it hit Jess, she does not want another dog after having to go thru that. Lola got pretty bad rather quickly there at the end. It was...

    Home sweet home. 3hr drive one way and left this morning at 7am. Got home at 1:30. I don’t know why but I always have anxiety after making big purchases. I’m sure it will pass when I feel what a 300hp pull feels like. Didn’t get a picture before I covered it so I did a screen shot off my ring...
