    Shocks for '14 Tahoe.

    Perhaps, I'm not going to be the first one to do Bilstein swap on '14 Tahoe. By every measure available my shocks and struts are still fine, it is bouncy because it is empty all the time, and towing nothing. Sent from my SM-A520W using Tapatalk

    Shocks for '14 Tahoe.

    Turns out, my factory rear shocks look nothing like Nivomats, and the springs are quite beefy. So I think I'm going with Bilstein 4600 Series 24-186933 rear and 24-186926 front. Thank you, guys!

    Shocks for '14 Tahoe.

    Gee, you've got me confused again. I don't have G65, but I do have ZW7, which I thought was self- leveling Nivomat... Now I don't even now what I have there...

    Weird smell when A/C is turned on

    That's weird. I'd think that Snap-On scanner would do a better job than my old (perhaps, Chinese) Maxidas that only goes to 2013... Sent from my SM-A520W using Tapatalk

    Weird smell when A/C is turned on

    Afterblow has really a lot of presentation online and in GM service manuals. What I've found though that in my '14 Tahoe it doesn't perform as they say. It's a full blast more than 10 minutes after I shut the truck down. Than there's another jolt in about 10 minutes. And yet another one down the...

    Check afterblow option if it's enabled. This might not be an error after all. Sent from my SM-A520W using Tapatalk

    Shocks for '14 Tahoe.

    I'm ready for the suspension work on my '14 4WD Tahoe, but can't find a better option for my rear ZW7 Nivomat shocks. Besides Delco's 560-700 or 560-703, what other options do I have? Is there a conversion kit like Bilstein has for the prior years? In the front, I think I will use the Bilstein...

    My old Maxidas scanner can do it as well. Sent from my SM-A520W using Tapatalk

    You don't have to, although they managed to sell the truck to you :) With no filter! Sent from my SM-A520W using Tapatalk

    This would make a rig the whole $10 cheaper to produce... Sent from my SM-A520W using Tapatalk

    That's mold growing in your evaporator. There are products to spray into cabin air intake set on recirculation. Alternatively, you can cut open the slot to install your own cabin filter, which is right in front of heater core and evaporator, and spray there before you install the filter. I did...

    Speaker/ amp recommendations

    I'd make the truck soundproof first. Dynamat, closed-cell foam, mass-loaded vinyl. I did that few years ago. About 100lbs of weight later, I can tell you that your Tahoe without the above is just a rattle can. You can try and implement different things sound-wise, but unless it is soundproof, it...

    2007 yukon mods

    Are the newer-gen seats just a bolt-on swap? Never thought about that. I replaced the 2nd row bench with Cadillac captains from the same generation in my '14 Tahoe. Would be interesting to know if newer-gen seats work as well. My understanding is that they are slimmer, I'd like that. And front...

    Found best visibility, and its under 20 bones...

    I guess I'm half-way there. I put H9-s on a stock harness in my Tahoe, and at the same time made a harness for my son's Crown Vic PPV, because they are notorious for dim lights. Made it with 10ga silicon wires, waterproof relay and ceramic sockets. Both projects yielded great results. Why did I...

    Any advice for front end protection?

    You really don't have to though. I unbolted the top and used these bolts as hard mounting points, piercing the top of the mesh. At the bottom I tucked the screen in between the bumper cover and the bumper 's foam insert. I used few wedges to make the bottom of the screen hold. So the screen is...
