    Custom Built Console Sub Box Question

    I guess there is only a brave few willing to build their own for this. Still looking for dimensions myself. If I find them I will post here, if not I will still make it and then post my dimensions here and start a new thread.

    Bose Speakers upgrade + Sound deadening

    I did just lay it over top of the openings, placed with care and with the sticky back closed cell foam over it it seemed sturdy enough to save the time of cutting out wood/plastic. The bottom of the door is un obstructed, so no real concern with the drain rod water for me. When I do this I...

    What I've Done To My Yukon Denali The Past 18 Months

    I can’t believe after 2 years with this truck I missed the relatively easy retrofit for the air filter.

    Bose Speakers upgrade + Sound deadening

    I’ve used Noico from via Amazon. 18 sqft was enough for decent coverage (70%) of all four doors. 3 sheets each front and 1.5 sheets each rear. the self sticking foam is awesome. I could’ve used more though. Where I cut out for the speaker, I placed that piece in the door behind the speaker...

    Bose Speakers upgrade + Sound deadening

    Been while since I had the chance to dig into the Tahoe. Fixed the random audio buzz, it was the rear audio controls. Disassembled and re seated the two circuit boards. Problem solved. Still rear speakers are crap + blown, rattling at high volumes. Front stocks Bose speakers were fine...

    Sand dunes in a Tahoe... made for it or not?

    Nice! Yeah I was extremely puzzled when I was dead in the sand... until I realized 4wd was working . Stuck my phone down the passenger side of the engine bay... sure enough some cracks at the top of the motor mount... just went on rockauto and repeated my order for the H3 mount. The tiny...

    Sand dunes in a Tahoe... made for it or not?

    Thought so, the suspension is stock. LT 2007. 117k on it. Good A/T tires on it. Seems to be in great shape. Just the 4wd actuator failing on me the other day... that’s fixed though. I feel like I get more shudders over bumps now, perhaps I damaged the passenger side stock motor mount when I...

    Sand dunes in a Tahoe... made for it or not?

    My Dad says “Tahoe’s are for snow” and unless z71 not designed to off road. Any truth to this? Are the hubs upgraded on the z71? Should I stay out of the sand in fear of breaking shi*? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Tahoe let me down...4wd dies at worst possible moment

    so... having had a little fun before, I figured it test out the fresh A/T rubber on the Tahoe today... just a little, with my 3.5yo boy. One hill, one measly quick hill, nothing crazy. Mind you the truck has been inspected by experienced mechanics and given the “all good” for operational 4wd...

    Broken Motor Mounts

    Agreed 100%. Thanks and a solid “like” to that. Love this platform, others would flame up. Definitely noticed more vibration today, I’m hyper sensitive to it all, but definitely there however not unbearable. Can’t imagine what Polys would be like though. I just have one h3 mount and can...

    Broken Motor Mounts

    I agree with others, if you have the time and a few more proper tools, it will be much less difficult. For me I only had last night after work, and have a 2nd car if needed for the next few days, so I decided to attempt it, knowing if needed I could run to Walmart for tools. I have to go back...
