it's why I will most likely never buy another vehicle with "light" carpet ever again, learned my lesson already. no more light colored interior for me, I also can't wear white because I just do not live in a sterile environment lol

I am so glad I got the seat - gap filler.....

I was telling my wife about those things recently but we do not have any need for one, the newer trucks have less gap making it harder to reach in there so if something happens to fall in, simply moving the seat backward or forward allows you to reach in and retrieve it.
I am tall enough and have enough reach to keep my feet on the pedal and reach the 3rd row I can also reach in or under the side of the seat for pretty much anything as well.
after 5 kids I can do just about anything while driving lol
about the only thing I can't reach is if it falls down on the passenger 2nd row between the seat and door in the back, then your out of luck

Didn't know they made those.

 

[mountie]

It's made very good..... Does not effect the seat movement. You don't know it's there. But if something falls out of your console, or your phone... or a cig,..... It save a hassle.

Post was moved to correct forum.

Installed mud flaps and changed the serpentine belt on my ‘16 Yukon, figured that would cure the problem “chirp” at startup. Whether it’s cold or hot, it does it. Anybody have an idea as to what it could be? Thanks.
+ I walnut blasted my intake valves about 2-3 weeks ago, would that have anything to do with the chirp?

wrong forum thread, but chirp is generally from another spinning part, not necessarily the belt. so maybe the tensioner or a pulley

 

[Grady_Wilson]

Yeah, I had a squeaking on start up in temps near or below zero so I swapped out both the pulley and the tensioner.
Mine wasn't a chirp but it was a constant squeak until it warmed up.

 

[mountie]

I don't know about newer Yukons... but I, ( '05 Yukon ), changed my belt tension-er, that's way down below, next to the A/C .compressor....
Since, it must take a beating.

Installed the rear DJM end links today. Seems to corner a bit better. I still have a bit of tire rub, driver side rear, on hard bumps. It’s the tire rubbing on the inner fender liner. They’re 275/55-20’s so there’s a lot of tire. I might have to trim; I did the heat and massage trick already.

Newer engines have the tensioner up near the top of the engine and a stupid stretch belt for the AC compressor, only, way down low.

I was scared about that AC belt, after reading other posts, but I've now removed and installed one with my bare hands and a ratchet on the crank bolt. It's not that bad in reality.

Rare, but check your starter bolts, and maybe even the bolts on your torque converter

The one I installed was about 2 inches shorter in overall length than the one I took off.
It was a pain to get onto the crank pulley, without a stretch belt tool it wouldn't have worked.

Replaced seatbelt receiver. Had to remove driver’s seat to get to the electrical connection.

The past year has been expensive for my ‘14 XL SLT w 194k. New trans/tc, control arms, radiator. Uses a quart of oil over 1000 miles if I run 80mph.

Are you the original owner?? Those are some serious issues, considering the miles .

Yes. Should’ve sold it when the trans went. Now I’ve got 10k into a 5k vehicle
