    Yukon vs Denali vs Escalade center consoles?

    Long story short, the Yukon got stolen, gutted and dumped. Among the things they stole from the interior is the center console insert/lid. I ordered a replacement from eBay, but it arrived damaged, and I'm returning it. Now I'm wondering if I could change styles. Here's a picture of the new...

    Where to buy cowl end cap without antenna hole?

    So I did the stubby antenna mod a while ago, and now I want to do the antenna delete. I'm using this as reference: http://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/how-to-hidden-antenna-mod.7661/ It references part number 15287179, which is apparently from the Escalade. However, it seems that part is...

    Oil pan gasket leaking?

    For the past few months, whenever I'm under the truck, the oil filter and surrounding area has been damp with oil. Not so much that it drips onto the driveway (there's not a single oil spot under where I park), but enough to notice on the filter/oil pan itself. Last time I was working on it, I...

    Leveling and front bump stop/jouncer questions

    So I started looking into leveling my 03 Yukon, not lifting the rear at all. I took some measurements as it sits now (ground to top of wheel well), and they're all over the place. Front driver - 35 1/8" Front passenger - 36 1/8" (1" higher) Rear driver - 36 7/8" Rear passenger - 37 3/8" (1/2"...

    Would the '00-'02 OEM rear sub box fit in '03 Yukon w/ Bose?

    Right now I have all the factory Bose speakers, including the center console "subwoofer". The only thing I've done is replaced the head unit. I was wondering if the factory rear panel subwoofer box from the 00-02 models was a direct fit into the 03+ models, or did they change the layout of...

    LED light bar in the front valence?

    So I just recently mounted some LED work lights under my rear bumper for additional reverse light. I'm pretty impressed with them, and now I'm thinking about adding some LED bars to the front. I want to replace the (useless) fogs, but then I got to thinking maybe I could add a legit light bar...

    Ballistic Marine Coating

    So, about a month ago, I got my truck coated with this stuff by a company called Ballistic Marine. It's a coating this guy developed with 3M, and owns the patent to. It started out as a boat coating (hence the name), and is designed to be incredibly hydrophobic. The idea is that you coat your...

    Underbody/running board LEDs

    I'm looking into doing some white LEDs under the body. Nothing ricer, they'd only light up with the puddle lights. I've already got the strand of LEDs, now I just need to hook them up. Anyone know where to tap into the puddle light wire?

    Denali bumper on non-Denali Yukon?

    I'm looking to update the front end of my Yukon, and before I spend money color matching the chrome on my existing bumper, I'm wondering the feasibility of putting a Denali front bumper on a non-Denali Yukon. Just from looking at the differences in the two trucks, I know I'd also have to swap...

    Tried installing my corvette servo today and ran into a problem. I followed a combination of walkthroughs and just about have everything in. The problem is I can't get the cover back on. I made sure the 4th apply piston is installed the right direction, long part outwards. No matter how much...

    Want to color match the chrome on my 03 Yukon

    After getting my smooth vent caps color matched white, the chrome bumpers and grille stand out even more. I'm trying to go for as clean a look as possible, if you can't tell from my sig pic. I'm pretty sure I'm going to paint them, but the question is, what color? I've got a few options for...

    Smooth vent caps finally installed

    Got my smooth caps from Stillen, painted and cleared myself with Duplicolor color match paint, and 2k clear from a can. Pretty happy with the results. The polyurethane build of the caps isn't as high quality as the OEM esky ones, but I actually like the completely smooth look of these. What...

    Primer for polyurethane smooth vent caps?

    I got the Stillen smooth vent caps, and am going to paint it to match the Olympic White of my 03 Yukon. Seems like I would need to prime before the paint and 2k clearcoat, but I'm not sure what kind of primer to use. The website (link) says they're polyurethane, so I don't know if a special...

    Problems trying to install backup cam

    I got a cheap ebay camera to use with my Sony 660bt head unit. The HU has plugs for the camera in the back, so I figured it would be an easy install. But the more I got into it, I realized I needed to hook up a "reverse in" trigger to the back of the HU. That's done through THIS PLUG. I have...

    Depo projectors for 2003 Yukon?

    I finally tried buying some projectors for my switch to HID, and went with Depos. Bought ones off amazon, thinking that if they fit a Tahoe, they'd fit a Yukon. I was wrong... I failed to notice that Tahoes apparently are straight across at the top, and Yukon headlights have a bit of a...

    Looking for the brightest backup lights I can get short of doing a HID install. The previous owner had the upgraded Sylvania Silverstar bulbs in there, and the light output is pretty good. But after reading a bunch of reviews on V-LEDs, I'm thinking about trying out some LEDs. So, what would...

    Just installed my LED turn signals, and I've got the hyper blinking. Well, they hyper blink with the individual turn signals, but I get the normal flash rate with the emergency flashers. Is that normal? Anyways, while looking into load resistors, I came across THIS. If I'm understanding...
