    Considering A 07-09 Avalanche Purchase

    Thanks! I did some research and read a post that explained that the Escalade EXTs weren't selling very well in 2010 so GM decided to put some of the 6.2 and 14 bolt rearends into the Avalanches. To me it's a perfect combo as it has all nice powertrain from the Escalades but still able to keep it...

    Considering A 07-09 Avalanche Purchase

    Well, almost exactly a year later I finally found my perfect Avalanche. I picked up a black 2010 LTZ 4WD. I got super lucky with this one as it has many more desirable options (at least to me they are). For starters, it's got the 6.2l 403hp L9H without the dreaded AFM crap and coupled with the...

    Considering A 07-09 Avalanche Purchase

    I agree about the facebook thing. I held out getting a FB account for a long long time. Noticed a lot of the forums in general were not as active as they used to be and finally just last year signed up and got a FB account, and just got an Instagram account a couple weeks ago. I still prefer a...

    Considering A 07-09 Avalanche Purchase

    So I'm considering upgrading my daily driver. Although I've owned my current 2000 Tahoe for over 9 years and it's been a tremendously reliable rig, it now has nearly 300,000 miles. Just recently it has started to have some smaller annoying things pop up and I'm reluctant to put any more...

    Project---------------Tahoe

    Sorry I haven't been working on the Tahoe since I replaced the gears. Status Update: T56 is probably NOT going to happen. My job was relocated into a very populated area which in turn added about 25 minutes of stop/go commuting in heavy traffic. Really not wanting to deal with a manual...

    Rear setup

    They're not "helper" bags at all. They're an actual air-spring that replace your current springs. Mike

    Rear setup

    Contact Tony "Norcal SS" a sponsor on here. He can hook you up with some TBSS airbags that are practically bolt-in. They completely replace the rear springs and when setup correctly, you can adjust the ride to fit your needs from inside the cabin. Maybe he'll chime in. Mike

    Project---------------Tahoe

    Welcome btw.... Yeah it seems like the early versions of the Duragrip help up great, even a few making some pretty good power. Lately I've seen a few people having issues with the spider gears. Just wondering if Yukon recently started outsourcing the spider gears overseas. ? I'll put this one...

    So this happened..... spider gears from the Yukon Duragrip limited slip I installed a few months ago. ******* Awesome! Read a bunch of good reviews about this unit. A couple lately have been doing this with the spiders. Product of outsourcing overseas? Mike

    2000 tahoe limited lowering kits?

    OK, just making sure. OP, sounds like you need ask these kind of questions in the 1991-1999 section since you have the OBS (GMT400) body style.

    2000 tahoe limited lowering kits?

    Tahoe limited? Isn't that a "pre" nbs body style?

    any gain to going to this 90mm tbss intake stock 01 5.3?

    I might be selling mine. If you're interested shoot me a pm. Came off a 2006 TBSS with less than 4k miles and has the fuel rail and injectors. I even have the TBSS engine cover.

    Gears?

    I installed the USA gears this summer and I have no issues with them. The setup is more important than the brand. Over the years, I've installed cheap gears and the more expensive ones and it all comes down to proper setup.
