Yeah, in the end i don't want to do this again... :jester:
It also doesn't sound fun if I had to drive home in 3rd gear @ 100 miles +
:yaoface2:


I think this covers the main upgrades.
piston upgrade for the 4-5-6 is coming, and the billet piston for the 1-2-3-4 should arrive today.
I wouldn't want to pull that trans again. Mines leaking just enough to make some drips on the case, but not enough to drive on the driveway. I think its leaking between the pump and the case. Its dry inside the bell housing but seems to seep between the bell housing and the case. Thats the only place I can figure its coming from. I need to got to Caseys and get his little camera thing and put it up in there.

DIY windshield repair using the Permatex kit. Much better.

Started fixing my seat today.

Also made $1.47 while I was in there. I figured that would have bought 3 gallons of gas when I was a PFC and 1/3 of a gallon now that I am retired.

All in all not a hard job but that is one heavy seat! Easier to get out than the one in my daughters Malibu though, more wiggle room. The JB weld is setting up now. I need to get it back together first thing in the morning to go to the range.

Did you fix that tear in the top pic? What'd you use?

I called yesterday to check my glass coverage. I had a $500 deductible. I asked how much to change it to zero on comprehensive. They said $93.06 to make it $0 deductible on ALL cars on the policy for comprehensive. I said change it. Now how long do I have to wait to file a windshield claim. She said...um, I'd wait at least 3-4 weeks...

Soooo, I'll be getting the windshield replaced in the avalanche soon. Something you may want to look into.

If you don’t have the rain sensor in it, it only costs about $200 to replace the windshield. I had my 08 Silverado done for less than that.

I have the rain sensor.

I also have ACC/Lane keep, HUD, and whatever else on my Denali. My wife's accord has all the lane keep and ACC stuff too. I figure those are probably at least $500 windshields so for $93 every 6 months, I'll be play it safe. That also covers all Comprehensive damage.

Every time I’ve had to have a windshield replaced it has been $50 more than my deductible. Not worth filing a claim. FML.

This depends a lot on the State and the insurance policy. I have full glass coverage and don't pay a dime for a windshield on either the truck or the car. And my rates don't go up when I have windshields replaced. Yes, I'm sure that I pay for that, but peace of mind.

I replaced both the foam and seat cover. I sit about 1" higher now due to the new foam.
Bummer though. That gear I showed was for the driver's rear end seat lift. I replaced with Gruven brass gears. Doesn't seem to be binding, but it seems the motor doesn't have enough oomph to raise my 195Lb butt. I have to stand outside to raise the seat. Goes down with my rear on it. Do the motors get weak?

checking everything before the trip to LA tomorrow, by chance I happened to look at the shifter cable connector and the fitting I had purchased before that was a plastic-rubber type thing was completely gone and I was hanging on by a washer and small cotter pin (by a thread basically) called the trans shop and they had a plastic one for a 4l60 I made it work for now but it won't last forever ordered another one from a place called fitzall, that should be the right one the 6l80 has a bell type fitting there is a ring of metal near the shaft connector so the straight shaft fitting won't fit quite right, but it will get me down the road

I had the same issue with mine when I did the Gruven gears and had trouble. https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/thr...an-seat-gear-replacement.123873/#post-1524392

man downloaded some movies to a sd card to watch on the pioneer nex and the headunit had a brainfart when I put the sd card in, didn't know that was the problem at first and after darn near going into taking the headunit apart discovered if I removed the sd card it would work fine and worked fine with any other sd card, it wouldn't flip open to access the dvd drive or sd card slot. had to force it open with a tool and then after a couple more attempts figured out it just didn't like that particular sd card. :mad:
