    Change Antifreeze 2008

    What's the best way to change my antifreeze on my 2008 5.3 Tahoe? From what i see draining by the lower hose is about it ? Looks like i would be only changing half.

    spark plug change 5.3

    spark plug change 5.3

    So i decided to change my plugs on my 2008 Tahoe after a 125,000 miles, the driver side easy to do but the passenger side little more difficult. So i removed the inner wheel well liner and used my dewalt clamp to push the AC lines up to access the rear plug, see pic. Hope this helps someone.
