    Official Harbor Freight win or lose thread

    This week the Daytona 3-Ton HF Snap-on clone is on sale for $179 with the linked coupon. I might finally pull the trigger an buy one. I went with the intent of buying one a few months ago with a 25% off coupon, but the cashier pointed out in the fine print that jacks (and basically any big...

    Aftermarket and stock housings for sale

    Sounds good, but as I edited above, I missed that these were for a Tahoe. As far as I understand Tahoe lights have a flat upper profile compared to the rounded top of the Yukon's and don't interchange.

    Aftermarket and stock housings for sale

    Would you be willing to sell just the headlight housings without the turns? If so, what would you like for them. They look clean and clear without any haze or yellowing. I'm looking to replace the yellowed housings on my 2005 Denali (non-projector), so the turns are of no use to me. EDIT...

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

    Not to rain on your parade, but have you manually calculated your MPG with miles on the odometer vs. gallons at the pump to full? The only reason I ask is because the gallons used counter on my DIC does not match the amount of fuel it takes to refill the tank. The DIC is using that number to...

    Curt hitch install

    The Curt fit guide indicates that the #14080 hitch is for a 2000-2002 Tahoe/Yukon/Suburban/Escalade. Is that the year range of your vehicle? EDIT: Look at your other thread, I see that you have a 2000 Tahoe. As long as it is a later 2000 NBS model and not the early 2000 OBS model, it seems as...

    Cluster Not Working, Intermittent

    It is most likely the surface mount resistors to the right of the speedo stepper motor. Hopefully it is just a simple fix of reflowing the solder at each end of the resistors. This video walks you through the problem and which resistors are the ones:

    Anyone heard this?? Models made in Mexico has diff. front fenders & hood.

    Did this topic ever get settled? I have been looking for a replacement for my Yukon's hood. It has two small areas of damage where it looks like something hit the front lip, and rolled off the passenger side, and the clear coat is failing directly in the center of the hood. I've seen many...

    Would I Benefit From A Black Bear Tune?

    Nope. I bought a previously used Black Bear Autocal from someone that sold their Silverado and had no use for it. I need to order a VIN license to add my vehicle to the unit and custom tune from Black Bear.

    Would I Benefit From A Black Bear Tune?

    Haven't even started the process with Black Bear. I tested the unit, updated the firmware, and loaded in the vehicle specific profiles so I can log a test drive and download the stock tune to send over to Black Bear. I'll be sure to report back as soon as the results are in.

    Need a intake to pair with Corsa exhaust

    You're in luck. Black Bear Performance recently released their results and dyno data from their current gen of intake testing. http://blackbearperformance.com/IntakeTestResults_2016.asp Be sure to read the comment column in the results table. The specifically noted if tuning would be required...

    Would I Benefit From A Black Bear Tune?

    And guess what was in my mailbox today.... I was going to wait until a few other projects were done before staring the tuning process, but who am I kidding. Now that I have it in hand I want to see it in action.

    Lug Nuts

    Actually, I missed that you have a 2500 so you would need 32. Also, the ebay search I linked to was for the 14x1.5 thread on the 1500s. I don't know off hand if you have the same thread as us 6-luggers.

    Lug Nuts

    The factory polished lug nuts on my 2005 spent most of their lives in CT, and the past winter up here in Mass and look practically new. A quick search on ebay, and it looks like you can get a set of 24 OEM take offs for $50 or less.

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

    Black Bear Performance 2016 Intake Test

    I know it wouldn't be 100% accurate, but can these results be applied generally to similar equipment designed for previous engine generations? I've been considering the Airaid MIT 200-919 for my 2005 6.0L, but the results for the Airaid MIT 200-911 on the 2016 6.2L are not stellar and warranted...

    Radio (HU) replacement.

    I think you can look at any 2005-2006 GM that has the UM8 RPO option if you want a direct replacement for what you have now.

    Radio (HU) replacement.

    Gotcha. Putting your vehicle and radio specs into car-part.com it looks like all the donor vehicles listed are 2005-2006 Denalis/Escalades/Z71s/Avalanches.

    Radio (HU) replacement.

    From what I understand, factory radios are coded to the VIN of the vehicle that they were originally installed in, and you will need to have it reprogrammed to work with your vehicle. EDIT: Actually, I just did a quick search and it looks like if you are willing to crack the replacement radio...

    Buy a Suburban / Yukon XL or better not in my special situation

    I think the need for a second car for your wife and children while you are at work with will highly depend on where you will be living in the US, and what the public transit system is like in that area. My wife and I live in a small city, and most of our friends are single vehicle households...

    Would I Benefit From A Black Bear Tune?

    Thanks for getting back to me. I spent some time researching how Autocals are linked to specific Flashscan V2 units, and what the process is for getting them unlinked from their original tuners after you brought that detail to my attention. I thought I had a line on a reasonably priced used...

    * SOLD* BlackBear AutoCal

    It should work with your Tahoe, but you can not use the tune that was loaded into the unit specifically for @shortbusondubs LTZ. You will need to contact Black Bear for a EFI Live VIN license and vehicle specific tune. I checked with them, and the current price is $325 for the tune and license.

    Floor Mats?

    I have a set of just the fronts in my 2006 Denali. Overall, I am happy with them. As you can see, they are doing their job now that we are entering mud season here in New England. They don't fit as well as the set I have in my company Tacoma work truck. The interior profiles are fine, but the...

    03 tahoe instrument cluster

    In one you tube videos I watched it about reflowing the seven surface mount resistors to left of the speedo to correct the dim PRND321 display, they mentioned that there was a set of resistors to the right of the speedo that controlled the main power to the cluster board. I'll take a look to...

    Denalis that don't have 22s? Anyone?

    Are you looking for a home for your originals? If so, I know a Denali that could use them.
