    Washer fluid tank relocation

    Has anyone relocated the windshield washer fluid tank, and what did they use if changing to a different tank? My new bumper offers much more clearance than the factory Yukon cover, but exposed the area where the tank is placed, in front of the driver fender liner. The tank itself is like 18"...

    New battery/starter/alternator cable part#s?

    I'm looking to put in an order for some new power cables under the hood, and was hoping someone had already done the same thing, along with listing all the part numbers. I've been searching around, but not having total luck, so if anyone knows the info, that'd be great. Adding that info to a...

    Has anyone dealt with MOVE Bumpers?

    I received some renders for the DIY steel bumper kit from MOVE Bumpers, and I'm wonder if anyone has ordered from them before, and/or can share before & after pics. They're prices seem decent, and there is a good GovX discount currently. My concern is that I only have a 120v MIG welder, and I...

    2014 fuse block question - Fuel Pump relay

    I was staring at the salt under my hood, and wondered if there was any *********** into the fuse block, and noticed that the FUEL PMP relay wasn't present. Is there supposed to be something there? Edit: can't even type "p3netration"? Who is the smooth-brained Mormon in charge of this...

    Looking at a winter-beater.

    (I moved this from a different thread for better visibility) My current 2014 Yukon does not like this cold weather or all the salt, so I'm looking at a winter-rig. I came across this, and would appreciate some input/thoughts: 2010 Yukon Denali w/203k. Transmission replaced at ~100k. It's...

    LS GenIV ignition coil harness compatibilty.

    Would square-body LS3 coils (from GenIV LS3/6.2) fit the harness of a round-body LMG/5.3 truck harness? Would it be an upgrade?

    Spark plugs for mildly upgraded engine?

    I'm currently running the AC Delco 41162 spark plugs, but am curious if there is a better option for my mildly upgraded engine? (Low Buck Truck cam, BBP 91-93 octane tune, 50lbs. injectors, long-tube headers) I'll confess that I'm not smart when it comes to temp ranges of spark plugs. And am...

    Rear-middle headrest options?

    I'm looking for headrest options/solutions. Kiddo is now tall enough to not need a booster seat (freaking beanstock!) but, loves sitting in the rear-middle seat to make silly faces into my rear-view mirror while I'm driving, plus the other two seats are also occupied. I hate that there is no...

    Exhaust rasp... now a whistle.

    Exhaust setup: Speed Engineering 1.75" long-tube headers with 3.5" collector, to 3" reducer to 3" dia. 28" long AP Racing muffler (magnaflow clone), to 3" tailpipe. There was no rasp prior to the headers, just a deep truck tone... nothing fance. After headers there was noticeable rasp along with...

    Is BBP on vacation?

    Just checking in to see if the shop is closed for a summer break, or if they just have a larger than normal backlog of work?

    Crossbar upgrade

    My factory crossbars are the weak type, with the locks that fail, and I'm looking for some suggestions for upgrades. I don't want a roof basket or base, as I want to be able to mount bike/kayak racks, and occasionally a cargo box. Has anyone found upgrades?

    Impact sensors - can they kill engine during slow speed/emergency braking?

    I'm bored at work, and thinking about a few instances in the past two years when I was traveling less than 10mph, but slammed the brake pedal with both feet (rocking the vehicle out of a mud hole, and swerving/braking to miss a dog on a class IV road) and experienced the engine cutting off. In...

    Quick lowering question - how low can a 4wd SUV go without issues?

    Nothing set in stone, but for a separate future project (maybe)... how low can you drop a 4wd chassis, and still have it maintain drivability?

    Rear Pinion Seal

    I noticed a small stream from the pinion seal when I drained/refilled the rear-diff fluid the other day. It's the first time I've noticed the pinion wet, and I'm confident it's recent. I just watched a seal replacement video, and it didn't look too tricky. I just need to buy a seal puller to...

    Rust repair

    I'm starting to get quotes for some rear wheel-arch paint bubbles and rust repair, and the the first quotes are from $2000-4500! I'm not sure I'm going to spend that on car that's probably worth ~$10k... if that. I'll probably try doing it myself, but would like you folks to chime in with...

    alignment specs for lift?

    Are there better alignment specs, vs. OEM specs., for vehicles with (small) lifts? I'm running the Bilstein 5100s on the highest setting. I did get an alignment recently after replacing some front-end parts, and it drives straight, but feels more twitchy than in the past.

    TPMS replacement

    Have any of you folks done it yourself? Was it easy enough to air-down, then break thet bead in just one section?

    Replaced my lower ball joints.

    Per my recent yearly state safety inspection, they said the two LBJs were bad, and wanted $1,056 to replace. Not in this economy bud! $63 and two days later I had some AC Delco parts delivered. (It was nice that they made them in China, so I didn't have to worry about Amazon selling fakes...

    Warm Start stumble/multiple attempts... where to start looking?

    2014 Yukon SLT 4x4 183,*** miles... 5.3 swapped to 6.0 with BBP tune, 50lb. injectors, Low Buck truck cam (truck norris clone). (I've already messaged the tuner, but looking for more thoughts/opinions here) I've been running my current tune for a couple months now, and there has been an...

    Lug nut size for fitting under center caps?

    Can someone tell me the correct height lugnut size to buy for my winter steel wheels with the plastic center caps. Looks like the faux plastic lug nuts on the center caps grip onto the real lug nuts underneath, but I'm not sure what size to buy so the caps fit flush to the wheel. My current...

    Running board

    2014 Yukon SLT I smashed up the passenger running board pretty badly, and looking for suggestions on replacement options. The factory plastic unit looks stupidly expensive. Are there any aftermarket alternatives that are worth it?

    What tools/tool combos worked best from removing upstream O2 sensors?

    I have two fresh Corporate Motors upstream O2 sensors headed my way, and am looking for trusty advice on which tools worked the best to get them out. I took a peek under her skirt and the locations of the bungs aren't mirrored, so one method of removal might not work as well.... ? Anyways, if...
