    So I'm leaking oil right near where the filter screws on, I've narrowed the leak down to right near where the oil cooler lines plug in on the oil filter adapter. Looks like I need the kit pictured below. Appears felpro makes one (although has terrible reviews on advanced auto) or one made by...

    Tippy hoe

    Sort of a weird story, had all my front suspension replaced last fall. Fast forward to May of this year, parked the hoe for the weekend and when I went to start it up on Sunday, drove it about 1/4 a mile and all of a sudden heard a loud bang like a huge rock kicked up and hit the underside of...

    Leaking oil lines....

    Noticed last night I had a ton of oil coming down in the front driver side wheel well, and also from under the front chin. Got underneath it and looked up and it appeared to be coming from an oil cooler line that runs near the gear box. I tried to take some pictures to help identify it, because...

    Blown belt and heads?

    Driving down the highway tonight, had the belt completely blow. Pulled over after I noticed the battery light and check gauge light turn on in the dash. Noticed then the fan wasn't spinning and the temp gauge was all the way over to the red. Limped it home approx 1 mile from where I noticed the...

    Shocks for 6" RCX lift

    Just wondering what shocks people are running with this kit? Where I'm ordering the kit from offers the "upgraded 2.2 shocks" for only $50 more, but I'm guessing they are trash.

    2 door tint pictures

    Anyone have a picture of a 2 door with 20% tint over the rear windows, and either 5 or 15% on the front driver and passenger door? Thinking of having this done to mine. I just want to see if there is a big darkness difference between the fronts and rears, as I don't really want to put 5% on the...

    Bigger tires, but not re-gearing?

    So once I get my lift installed, I'm looking at running some 37s. Whether or not they are 12.5, or 13.5" wide yet I have not decided. One thing that has come up in talking with the lift guy, is possibly re-gearing. My hoe came with the 3.42s, which with stock tires (31" 265/70R16) at 65MPH...

    Rear tail light problems

    Alright I've got a 98 2 door Tahoe. A couple weeks ago, whenever I would put on the left side blinker it would start spazzing out and going on hyper mode. I figured one of my lights was burned out, and I would replace it shortly. So I get out of my vehicle the other night, turn on the blinkers...

    Quality headlights?

    Clipped a deer so I'm gonna order a new set of headlights since my current ones are the originals and really glazed over. I also bought a replacement grill since my original chrome was cracked, and I'll be painting this one new black to match my body paint job. I'm debating between black...

    Temp gauge question

    I've starting noticing over the past couple weeks that when I first start driving my vehicle, the temp gauge slowly creeps up to 210, then almost immediately drops down to 180-190 and then stays around 195ish until I turn the vehicle off. Then when I start it up again, it creeps back up to 210...

    Need a cleaning solution for the paint

    Had the trim removed from my Tahoe a couple weeks ago, finally took it through the car was a couple nights ago. Took a look at it today and noticed that there is still some residue from where the trim had been. Also, I had tried WD-40 in my keylocks to see if I could unseize them. In the...

    98 Tahoe 2 door 5.7L 4WD First off, just had the remote door unlocked removed (long story behind that) and now when I go to unlock my door with my key, I find out that my key only will unlock the rear hatch, it doesn't quite fit all the way in either the driver or passenger side doors. Any idea...

    Anyone using a filtermag on their oil filter?

    Getting my 350 rebuilt this week, already ordered a test kit from Blackstone labs to send them an oil sample at my first 3k mile oil change, but I'm also wondering if I should pick up a Filtermag SS300 for my oil filter? Wondering if they are actually helpful, or just a gimmick. Friend of mine...

    Sounds like the engine is done

    Got a call from the mechanic this morning, Tahoe was in there for a head gasket replacement. I had gone ahead and purchased the Felpro kit as well as the new fuel injectors. Well I guess he tore into it last night, and found some bad news :( Previous owner had been running the engine for...

    Black grille and assembly options

    Been looking around to swap out my chrome grill as I am not the biggest fan of chrome on vehicles, and I'd like to get a black grill, assembly shell, and black front bumper. Through my looking around, I see there aren't that many options. There is the T-Rex kit for a whopping $330...

    Uh oh, bad news bears :(

    So I bought a 98 Tahoe a week ago Friday, over the last 4 or 5 days I noticed I was losing coolant pretty regularly, enough to the point I would have to add up to half a gallon daily. Did an oil change yesterday after failing to find a leak with a pressure testing system, well there was an extra...

    First time Tahoe owner, few questions

    Hey all, just bought a 98 2dr Tahoe and I have a couple questions. 1.) I notice the temp gauge swings between 210 and 235 randomly (once it has warmed up). Just topped off the coolant and it's still doing that, think the thermostat needs replacing? If not, what else could it be? 2.) Any full...
