    Vibration with trailer attached. Help.

    ok guys, I need some help and this may get long. I was towing my 18' pj car trailer home Saturday (empty) after letting a good friend use it. I noticed while hauling it home with my '97 4-door 4x4 tahoe I had a reoccurring vibration that felt like it came from the rearend and moved forward...

    Where to buy weather stripping

    I just installed all of this a couple months ago on my '97 4-dr. I ordered the door gaskets (that go all the way around the door opening) from metrommp.com. They were imported and while one of them was an inch too short when installed, the other 3 fit just fine and looked like the originals...

    Radiator recommendations

    2 core unit is my recommendations also. I just did this within the last month or so. Worth the extra 40 bones or so for the extra cooling capacity. If this yukon is bone stock, never will pull anything heavy and is not in a hot climate idling around, the stock radiator will do just fine though.

    Engine Swap troubles. HELP

    Do you have any engine codes that have registered since you did the swap and fired it up?

    99 4door 2wd cranks but wont start

    I've never seen one do this in dry conditions but recently my distributor cap/rotor did this to me when trying to start. I wouldn't think it would cause it to stall but if you have spark and it looks weak, pull the cap and inspect. Mine would crank over a bit faster than normal and then all...

    Lucky Denali cluster find!

    I guess I like the white needles. Are those available in white and easily swapped once the cluster is removed?

    Newbie tire question about P245/75/R16's

    Some of the tahoes even came factory with the 265's.

    Can't open my driver door from inside...

    Yup, rod type. I know the inner door handles break as often as the outer door handles. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the issue. YOu can buy them at just about any parts store but getting one the right color if you don't have grey is getting difficult unless maybe you go the dealer route.

    14 bolt swap with ics

    I think I've read where some people have 10" rear brakes. My 10 bolt had factory 11" brakes and that's what the 14 bolt has, albeit the drums weigh about 100x times more than my 10 bolt brakes did. lol Seems to stop the same though. Everything feels great. I can tell the extra weight is back...

    14 bolt swap with ics

    I hear ya. I thought the same thing and instead of rebuilding my 10 bolt I went with the 14 bolt since I found one so cheap. I don't do any off-roading but do haul a car trailer several times and figured the 14 bolt should work fine for me. PLUS I'm a glutton for punishment and figured a swap...

    14 bolt swap with ics

    I've got a 4 door tahoe so I had the factory sway bar already and decided to swap the mounts while I had everything apart. Including what I paid for the rearend and the spider gears I have $400 in it, plus u-bolts and other items on top of that.

    14 bolt swap with ics

    Out with the old, in with the new. It's not as purty as I wanted since I decided to weld the sway bar mounts to it but it is a daily driver and I live on dirt/gravel roads.... Nothing special about it. just a 60k miles original rear. I put new spider gears in it and seals. The bearings all...

    What exactly is a BB Tune?

    I saw that too. I went back and reread. It says you dropped an engine from a '98 in your tahoe. Did you maintain the '98 vortec fueling system and transfer the electronics over with it or did you just buy a vortec style intake and bolt your tbi unit to it?

    obs reverse camera

    anyone have any pics of their camera mounted? This would be a nice upgrade on mine for when the wife is driving it. The poor clawfoot tub I turned into a flowerbed is tired of getting backed into.
