    Sensor or gauge??

    Ready to make a 400 mile trip so i made sure all was well with my Denali before heading out. When I started her up I noticed the oil pressure gauge read zero (actually no movement at all). No noise from the engine..oil levels fine. No warning lights no CEL or anything indicating an issue with...

    Stereo in my 08 Tahoe is only working on one side???

    There is definitely a correlation with the center console and drivers seat and when this happens. Every time that it has happened even just the smallest movement /pressure between the seat and console has magically turned the left side audio back on.

    Liftgate exterior window switch replacement - I'm stuck!

    Awesome. Glad to hear it work easy for you. So much better that pulling that appliqué off and spending half a day jb Welding the tabs back that you break during removal.

    Stereo in my 08 Tahoe is only working on one side???

    So you replaced speakers and it fixed the problem? That sounds odd.

    Stereo in my 08 Tahoe is only working on one side???

    there seems to be a lot happening with the dirvers side cutting out on stereos. mine does it from time to time. ususally going over bumps making a left hand turn makes it happen. I have seen this on the forums and on fix it sites throughout the interebs. my guess along with others is its a...

    Liftgate exterior window switch replacement - I'm stuck!

    This is the very button im looking for. I wouldnt blame the previous owner too much. the button is held in by a rubber seal. Once that deteriorates the plastic piece that pushes the switch falls out. I never use that button and mine fell off during a wash. Nathan. Ill certinaly buy that...

    Better/over kill setup 3 Batt and Second Alt or 2 batt and Second Alt

    What all will be going on the inverter? Even a Full fledged monster desktop and 27" monitor wont use that much power. Both laptops together may only use 500 watts.

    Aftermarket HU question

    Do you owners of aftermarket units know if the head unit powers up like the stock pre2012 nav units do? They power up and start "booting" when the alarm is disarmed or when you unlock door or pretty much anything that says you just got in the vehicle. Done to avoid boot times I guess. If...

    Alpine 8" HU

    Has anyone installed this? http://www.alpine.com/e/products/video/z928hd.html Very Awesome! Only issue I see is that you need to use their "exact fit" kit to install in NNBS trucks. That kit includes the fancy trim and the wiring.. It does not give ability to have rear entertainment.

    Front Sway links

    I know about the issues with lowering and the REAR sway bar. But when lowing with springs/struts shouldn't the links that attach to the lower arms be shortened as well?

    level sensors

    I used Gorilla glue to put the shaft back in the end of the ball cup. They don't really hold a lot of torque, just enough to actuate the level sensor.

    Lowering Denali omitting auto-ride and lowering all at once.

    I understand the the stock pump rated to 35+ will blow out bags (rated less than 35psi) keep in mind the numbers I'm using here are all theoretical and not real. However with a regulator or relief valve in line the system can be made to only let the bags "see" whatever they are designed...

    Lowering Denali omitting auto-ride and lowering all at once.

    If the bag is deflated and the stock compressor kicks on due to a Low ride condition in the rear end, it should inflate the helpers to make a difference. At the point it levels out the stock ride sensors should shut off the compressor before the max pressure of the helpers are attained...

    Upper A-Arm bushings removal

    I found out what worked for me. First you need to pop off the inner ring of each mount. It will expose the rubber isolator. Then grab a torch and proceed to set it on fire! Seriously let it burn to the point that the rubber isolator is easily pushed out of outer metal part of the bushing...

    iPod and Bluetooth Integration for 2008 Tahoe w/Nav

    Anyone going this route...I recommend the Bluefusion over the GROM. The Issues with GROM have yet to be fixed and it does not display any BT data on the headunit like the Blue Fusion does.
