    New Transmission feels AWESOME.

    The price was just under $2000 with trans, fluid, new exhaust studs, etc. The trans holds gears way better, more pronounced shifts. Plus it feels 1000% more smooth, sturdy, tighter tolerances, etc. Here is the specifics from thier website. Features •Level 2 4L60E/4L65E •(FREE...

    New Transmission feels AWESOME.

    Well, I blew the stock trans while driving home from Houston last week. Got towed home, 3.5hrs. No fun. Ordered a new Mad Dog Stage 2 trans, and just got done installing it. Took a lap around town and it feels REALLY great. Still gonna upgrade to bigger trans cooler, before the TX summer...

    Horn/Alarm Problem

    A few months back my 2002 Tahoe was broke into and they tried to steal it. Jammed a screwdriver under the passenger door handle to pop it open, pulled the column trim off and tried to break the ignition free. Didn't work, and they didn't get the truck. Just caused me some headache. So I...

    How do thieves do it?

    So, last week while at the mall some punks tried to jack my wifes 2002 Tahoe. They jammed a screwdriver under the passenger door handle and popped it open. Jacked up the steering column, and the ignition. But didn't get the truck. Stole GPS and 2 books of CDs. But would you believe it...

    Ball Joints

    So, the front of my 2002 tahoe is getting a bit sloppy, and clunky. Sounds like it's time for ball joints, wheel bearings, new bushings. Anyone have a favorite brand? Standard replacements work? Anything extra HD that I can put on? Thanks. ---------- Post added at 09:17 PM ----------...

    I want to pull the trigger but need HELP first...

    I like the flat back ones. Shouldn't have any problem with them. Your concerns about the odometer would be based on what size tires you put on them. Are your stock tires 285's? I'm not up on what sizes come stock...but if you get the same outer diameter, you won't have a problem. Should be...

    Where to get a muffler installed in Dallas?

    We could do it at my house. I'm up in Denton. I just put a Flowmast Cat-back on my tahoe. It was bolt on. But I have a Mig, sawzall, and a grinder. Sure it can't be too hard. Of course, clamping it together would be easier.

    ok the panhard is going bye bye!!!

    How about you just replace all the worn pieces with new ones? Don't know what year your truck is, but maybe the suspension just needs to be freshened up. Mines stock, but have replaced the shocks with Belltechs, as well as both sways with aftermarket. Rides pretty damn nice, to me. Or your...

    pics of da 30zzzzz

    I think a 20" big brake kit would look about right. Don't know if you can find one that big, though.

    Clear Corners

    These are what I bought for my Tahoe. Would prefer to do without the amber reflector...but I don't feel like baking them to get it out. Although after I installed, I noticed that one had a leak and was collecting condensation. Emailed the company and they sent out a replacement...with a...

    Shaking on 24's

    mine was shaking pretty good whenever I hit a bump. Rollin 24's. The hub bearings were worn. Got them replaced, plus added a KYB stabilizer and it's all better.
