    Water pump failed

    I picked up the dorman 800-409 from Ol'reily. Tried to see if it would connect on the left tube but I couldnt get it to click but I didnt try the tube on the right side.. I looked at autozone and both the silverado and tahoe use the same heater core.. So the 800-409 should work unless it only...

    Water pump failed

So I'm going to have to see if I can drop the line somehow. Looks like the runningboard/step is going to have to be removed? . Can the rear...

    i'll check there as well. I found a small split in the metal lines that run under the passenger side of the frame. They seem to run from looks like heater core outlets all the way to the back. Damn! Is there a way to bypass the rear heat until I can find the metal lines

    2011 Tahoe 4x4 oil pan replacement question

    if you end up replacing the oil pan .Remove the Front Sway Bar and Links. Remove slid plate and cross member. Unbolt the steering rack and let it hang Unbolt one side of the front diff and loosen the other. That will give you enough room to get to the oil pan bolts and remove the oil pan/gasket
