    How simple or complicated is it to add an ATF temp gauge to an '02 Z71 gauge cluster?

    I have an '02 and had DFW Speedometer Repair so an overhaul and add the trans temp gauge. Works perfectly!

    '21+ Seat Retrofit

    Hi, all! I'm sure this has been talked about before; if so, please point me in the right direction. I'm trying to decide between a '23 Z71 or Premier. One of the deciding factors are the heated/ventilated seats. Is there a way to retrofit the H/V seats into the Z71 and function correctly? We...

    @Banks22: Thanks! Looks a touch darker but nice. @Callen841: Ok, I see it now. I didn't see that when I tried a few weeks ago.

    Building Online

    So, I'm about ready to replace my '02 Z71, after 300K miles. I'm building one online, but for whatever reason, GM isn't allowing you to build a '23, and has yet to show any of the new colors. Does anyone know why? They discontinued the Satin Steel Metallic that I really liked, yet nothing on...

    2002 Tahoe Z71 5.3l - stainless steel brake hoses

    You'll love the difference. I can't recall the brand I used, but everything was R&R. If I can find the box I used, I'll be sure to post what I used.

    Loud knocking or clunking

    You guys are spot on... take it back! While my '** isn't nearly as new as yours, the times mine made that noise, it was the ball joints.

    New member 2003 Z71 with brake issue

    Welcome! You've come to a place with great members and knowledge! Hopefully you'll find an answer. You said you bled your brakes old school, which to me, nothing wrong there. I upgraded my '02 brakes to '07s and stainless lines. When I bled them, I found a thread on how to build a power...

    Upgrade to 20's?

    @PNW VietVet: Thank you for your service! I spent 30 years in government aviation and had a blast doing so. I do know what you mean by "seat of the pants"! The reason I have been wanting to do the Hellwig bars was because of the fact that they are pretty much the only solid bars on the market...

    Upgrade to 20's?

    Ok, I will definitely check out the link. Thank you!. I went up from the stock 265 to a 285 and was very pleased at the look, filling up more of the fender opening. After I lowered the rear, I had a little rubbing, but nothing serious. It only happened going in or out of a steep driveway. I...

    Upgrade to 20's?

    Ok, so finally need some new tires. Don't mind the factory 17's (Z71), but have been wanting to possibly upgrade to some 20" snowflakes. I know a lot of you guys have already done this, so what width wheels did you use? I was thinking the 9", but just want to make sure they'll clear. I lowered...

    OMG! New Cluster! I am Sooooo Happy! :-)

    Just curious, what year? I had mine redone by a guy in Dallas. He was the only one I could find that will rebuild 99-02 (mine is an 02).

    Another Headlight Question

    I used the Depo projector housings, low beam HID, fogs and high beams LEDs. Am very pleased with the results! Job was VERY easy.

    4 Lo/Hi Mod

    Hello, all! Hope everyone is staying safe. I installed the Painless lo/hi mod a few months ago on my 02 Z71. I don't drive the truck much, but travel in it mostly on vaca. The mod worked fine for a short while, but noticed a little while back, it reverted to the factory setting. I used the...
