    exhausting question

    thanks guys! thats what i was thinking to is it would make it too loud and make it obnoxious. looking at it i wouldnt even consider it a muffler. it is literally a giant pipe with 2 triangles welded on the inside with 2 holes drilled in the triangles. its also over half the size in length of the...

    upgrade questions

    ya ive been contemplating regearing for some time now but dont know if it would be "worth" it given the upgrades ive done on the ole yukon. i just worry about the 8.5in being "weak" but i guess im just over thinking it. weve used the yukon for 3 years now to tow the camper and it does just fine...

    upgrade questions

    i think 4.10s would be a bit much for daily driving around where i live. while towing would be awesome but i think the 3.73 would be the best. which i could definitely replace the gears in a 9.5in 14 bolt but didnt know if it would be worth the hassle or am i over thinking this and just...

    upgrade questions

    ya its an xl. i figured the front diff is limited to the factory diff cause how its designed/mounted. im a capable of doing the gear swap on my own just didnt know if it would be easier or more beneficial to swap the entire diff out with something a bit bigger with the 3.73s already installed...

    upgrade questions

    hey everyone, i have a question, im looking into doing some "upgrades" on the yukon (12 denali, stage 1 cam, tune). thinking of doing 3.73 gears but wondering if it would be possible to put 2500 differentials or what upgrades could be done to the factory diffs in the yukon? not looking to tow...

    GM 6L80 Transmission Information Thread

    ok one more question, ive tossed up the idea of putting a fan on the cooler with a thermo switch to come on at 180 and off at 165 just to keep the temps down in traffic or give it some extra air flow. would this be a good idea or am i over thinking it? @NickTransmissions

    2012 yukon denali hot idle engine tick/noise

    Well drove it around for the week before our trip and tuned the transmission and changed the oil everything looked great. We drove 400ish miles yesterday to go to the beach and we towed our 26ft camper down and it did great. The whole drive up and down hills the trans temp stayed 160-180 and...

    2012 yukon denali hot idle engine tick/noise

    If I remember correctly they started doing the thermostat on the trans in 14. Mine doesn’t have that since it’s a 12. Before the tune/cam install, my trans temp stayed around 150-160. Idk if it has to do with the fact that the tune I got also tuned the TCM and changed things in the trans but I’m...

    2012 yukon denali hot idle engine tick/noise

It was 85* degrees yesterday and just normal driving around it got to 190 it did t stay there but only dropped to like 180. I have...
