    '04 Tahoe Ground Location

    Hey guys. I've got the "wonky electrical issues" going on, so I'm looking to clean up some grounds. The main one I'm trying to get to comes off the negative battery terminal. I don't know how all the other '04 Tahoes are set up, but on mine, there are two black wires that go to the negative...

    Missing axle nut

    Wow, and I repeat, This IS the most helpful forum! Yes, it is the spindle nut for the cv axle. It's the auto 4WD. Can I test that hub with it on the vehicle, without the axle nut being on there? I've never had to fool with axles before. I really don't know much about them.

    Missing axle nut

    Well guys, it's a 2005 Exploder. I didn't really wanna put that on here cause of the ol' Ford vs. Chevy thing. :gr_guns::Grenade: But from everything I've gathered, it's almost a guarantee that this hub is now trash. If it was mine, I would've done ordered a new hub. But my kid is anxious to get...

    Missing axle nut

    My youngest son just bought his first ever vehicle a couple weeks ago. Heard a rattling noise in the front passenger wheel, took the little center cap off. A washer fell out and the axle nut was just totally missing. The threads where the axle nut should've been sitting were absolutely...

    '04 Tahoe 4wd switch testing/water pump gaskets

    That's the exact post I got my list of specs from! I hadn't tried to watch the video before though. A lot simpler than I was expecting. Thanks a bunch for that. Still looking for opinions on the water gasket...

    '04 Tahoe 4wd switch testing/water pump gaskets

    We've got an '04 Tahoe. Apparently, it has decided that it doesn't get enough attention, and has proceeded to go all to hell on me. So I have multiple unrelated issues I'm trying to figure out/fix at the moment. Well, I'm fairly certain they're unrelated. Anyhow, I've got a couple of questions I...

    2004 Tahoe Possible 4WD Issue

    OK, so I ended up taking the tahoe 3 minutes down the road the other day and back home and everything was normal. Later on that evening, I took it 15 minutes down the road to the store, and back home, and everything was normal. I then started to seriously question myself. You know, "maybe the...

    2004 Tahoe Possible 4WD Issue

    And I would join you guys in the drinking, but I'm scared to try to take this thing to the store. :happy160::hat:

    2004 Tahoe Possible 4WD Issue

    OK, so apparently I rambled too much, trying to explain exactly what happened, and confused everybody. Or just didn't explain it right. Either way, sorry. My mom lives about a mile back in the hills (mountains) of WV. Big mountains. You actually used to need 4WD to get to her house. It used to...

    2004 Tahoe Possible 4WD Issue

    Not sure if this is the right spot. Sorry if it's not. Yesterday, me and my kid went up a hill, to my mom's. It's close to a mile uphill, and we went up in 2WD, as usual. When I got to the top, I stopped to put the Tahoe in 4LO, 1st gear, like always, to keep from having to ride the brakes...

    2004 Tahoe Brakes, Master Cylinder

    Thanks for the replies guys. What I meant by "not really being able to afford that," is that it's probably gonna cost an arm and a leg for a shop to do all that work (rotors, calipers, master) at one time. I've been into one of the front wheels now and it's a freakin' mess. I can only imagine...

    2004 Tahoe Brakes, Master Cylinder

    Hi. I'm new here and this is my first post, so I hope I'm in the right spot. We bought an '04 Tahoe back in 2019. Not long after, I sprung a brake fluid leak. Found it was a front passenger-side line. Took it to a shop cause it was wintertime and I hate trying to work on a vehicle in the cold...
