    ‘04 z71 No 4x4 lights No service message

    Swath, I wish I had a tech 2… would there be codes if there are no service messages or lights? I think you’ve seen my turd-burban! I’ve got some more semi-progress stuff for it coming soon. I’ll throw a pic or two of the new ride. Nooj

    OE quality carpet

    I laid it in the 90ish* sun for a a few hours while I put the Silas mat down, but it didn’t help much…

    ‘04 z71 No 4x4 lights No service message

    Howdy all, Nooj here. Just picked up my brand spanking new 04 Tahoe Z71. Biggest issue (so far!) is that it has the equipment of a 4x4 underneath, and the accompanying electronics- but with none of the fun of a 4x4. No lights on the control, no 4x4 action when said control panel buttons are...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Picked up a fairly clean ‘04 Tahoe Z71 for my son. Got a little work to do, but it’sa big head start ahead of where the turd-burban started!

    OE quality carpet

    I ordered the ACC (Auto Custom Carpet) off of RockAuto for my 02 Suburban. I’m still working on the installation… It’s pre-formed, has the mass backing and carpet padding attached. Unfortunately, it got misshapen and some creases from being jammed in a shipping box. Some of the preformed areas...

    2003 Chevy Tahoe chassis for a muscle car

    I thought about sticking a ‘57 Chevy wagon on a tahoe chassis. But all I did was think about it… I know lots of folks have put older pickups on Tahoe chassis. In fact there’s a company that makes a body mount kit for various old trucks. But, part of the benefit of doing so is having the modem...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    Hello fellow bipeds! I have only a small update: There has been no progress :favorites68: I found out why my tow/haul switch doesn’t work: wires broken under the steering column cover. Haven’t had time to fix. I DID drop the tank to replace the fuel tank pressure sensor- which was successful...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    I’ll give that a try on the way to work in the morning and report my findings.

    2002 Tahoe Subwoofer replacement attempt failed, can anyone chime in?

    Do you have another system you could test the new sub with? I suppose it’s possible they sent you a dud. If a new sub brought my bass back to life, in my heavily beaten, water leaking, “somebody butchered lots of wiring” suburban- I would certainly think yours would work too. I’m sure you’ve...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    I’m getting a high frequency vibration in the floorboard. I’m going to explain it as simply as I can so you guys might be able to help me figure it out. -Imagine “the missus” left her personal massager in the car, and it’s rolling around near your feet, on. -it’s noticeable around 20-30mph...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    Today it was hotter than two rats f*ckin in a wool sock. I was sweating like a virgin reading a love letter. Felt like my nuts were sawing my legs off, and my âss cheeks done went phase to phase (electrician humor). Stayed busier than a puppy with two peters this weekend, and accomplished a...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    This weekend has been busy and terribly unproductive… Planned on picking up the parts turd, couldn’t get my uncles trailer… I at least went and paid for it, seen it in person. It’s in better shape than the original turd! Couldn’t get it home today. Tried to do the factory amp bypass Once...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    It was fairly cheap ($63) and yes it’s 8” and it fit the factory sub box without any modification. Well, I drilled a few holes through the box to mount it- but that’s it. I wired the two 4 ohm coils in parallel so it matches with the 2 ohm factory specs. I think the wattage range and box...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    Turns out the reason I had no sound from the rear sub is because it was crap. I reinstalled the power filter thing, and installed my new sub, which is the MB Quart Discus ds1-204. I now have bass!! Sounds much better, but I’m still going to do the crossover bypass for the door speakers...

    Rise of the Turd-burban

    That makes sense, seeing that it’s in the 12v power wire and there’s no other wires involved.
