    Tahoe Thoughts

    Outside: 1) I've never seen that handle before. Personally, I'm not sure how I feel about it, but it's your rig. If you like it, go for it! 2) Depending on how much elbow grease you're willing to put into it, you might get great results by just giving the thing a good detail (clay bar, compound...

    Junkyard find today!

    Yup! You can also check if and how many, say, Tahoes they have. That's what I've been doing lately. If they only have 1 or 2, I won't even bother making the trip, or I'll just pick a different yard.

    Front Bumper sag

    I wouldn't say that... Didn't you have to replace yours? lol

    Nerf bars on 2500 Yukon

    @LTG515 Those things look tough! Did you make them yourself or had them made? Either way, they look awesome!

    Front Bumper sag

    Not sure if you ever got this fixed or not, but when I got my Tahoe, it also had the saggy bumper. I went with the jack and 2x4 method. Totally worked for me.

    '02 Tahoe Randomly Running Rough

    So, just to update y'all. My plan is still to remove and clean up the throttle body and MAF sensor first. Unfortunately, work has been keeping me busy and I haven't gotten a chance to do it. The only thing I've done in regards to this so far, is switch back to regular gas (I waited till I was...

    '02 Tahoe Randomly Running Rough

    Yeah, but there's certain things, like say a monitor, that'll either work or not work, there's really no "in between" or "kind of works." The joke we make is, "a woman can't be kind of pregnant, she either is or she isn't." lol Amen to that! I work in IT so the more you know about the...

    '02 Tahoe Randomly Running Rough

    Didn't get a chance to work on it yesterday, but I left work yesterday and got back to work this morning without a hitch. That's what makes this thing so sketchy, that I don't know when it's going to strike next. I read up on IACs, and the symptoms definitely match. Total noob question...

    Definitely grateful for that! I apologize if my post came off otherwise.

    '02 Tahoe Randomly Running Rough

    I'll definitely do that next. I've had too many past experiences where "throwing money at it to fix it" has ended up hurting my wallet and my ego, to start doing that again.

    '02 Tahoe Randomly Running Rough

    Plugs and wires are unknown. I've had the truck for about 2 years now and she ran fine, so I didn't bother throwing money into that. The fuel filter was replaced about a year ago, when I replaced the FlexFuel sensor that had gone bad. Oil, oil filter and air filters changed regularly.

    '02 Tahoe Randomly Running Rough

    I'll pick up some cleaners on my way home from work and see if that does the trick. I've got no idea if this thing has an EGR valve. And if we're being entirely honest, my "car knowledge" is mostly made up of vintage Ford stuff, so I wouldn't know how to check if an EGR valve is working...

    '02 Tahoe Randomly Running Rough

    Hello everyone, First time posting, but I've been spectating y'all's builds for a while now. Anyhow, I need some help. In the last couple of weeks, my '02 Tahoe has randomly started running rough, sputtering, but after giving it some throttle, it levels out. It'll continue to idle rough for...
