    No Start after Alarm is used

    Had a similar problem with mine, I resolved it by replacing the key and tumbler and performing the relearn procedure for the VATS.

    14b SF swap

    Dudes, I am almost done with the 8 lug-3/4 ton drivetrain swap on the 'nali, the only thing left to do is getting the ebrake cables hooked up to the actuator levers on the new axle. I believe I can get the passenger side connected with a minor mod but the driver side cable is way too short to...

    6 to 8 lug conversion

    Well I went ahead and tried for myself and I was able to transfer the 8 lug spindles and massive brake components over to the 'nali. I had to get a 3/8to7/16 steel brake line adapter to hook up to the caliper flex hose, worked like a charm. Gonna get all balljoints replaced with Moog ones I just...

    6 to 8 lug conversion

    Has anyone ever done this? Here's what I have: I would like to upgrade the G80 axle on the 'nali with a 14b SF off a 99 Silverado 2500 which happens to be the same 3.73 ratio, but it has 8 lug pattern axles. Would it be worth swapping the front 6 lug stuff to the 8 lug? Is it a bolt on endeavor...

    Scored a LQ4/4L80E

    Thanks man, I have been giving this extensive thought and am beginning to lean towards getting the 5.7 original redone and getting the 'nali going, like I had planned in the beginning. In the mean time turning the LQ4 into a 550+hp plant with some L92/LS3 cylinder heads. This of course would be...

    Scored a LQ4/4L80E

    So I finally have saved enough dough to get the Yukon going again after it spun a bearing and began making a racket :emotions133: I was convinced I was going to turn the original 5.7 into a mild 383 with a budget of $1500-2000. I was planning on the teardown to happen this weekend but I ran...

    5.7L failure

    Hmmm, and this reluctor cannot be installed on the ZZ4 crank? Ima look into it and do a bit of research, something tells me I should acquire this motor, if it gets too involved to drop in the Yukon I could always use it for one hell of an upgrade in my SSII truggy! :D

    5.7L failure

    couldn't get pix today but I know for sure it's a roller cam, it has the sheet metal spider that keeps the lifters from rotating, and I thought I saw a ZZ4 stamp on it, the only fishy thing I noticed is the metal timing cover, are these blocks ready for the CPS and plastic cover?

    5.7L failure

    Dear dudes, I have a couple questions: So a homie heard the news about the Yuk being down and hit me up saying his GF's son had a ''new" LS for sale. This LS had only been in a camaro for less than than 3000 miles, it interested me so I went and looked at it. It turns out, it is not a LS, I ran...

    5.7L failure

    hahaha! I kinda wanna keep the 5.7 rebuildable so it can go in my travelall some day, but yes, it would be fun to have a rod shoot out the side of the block like my blazer did on my way to work a few years ago \m/

    5.7L failure

    crank is toast, got them journals polished up and bearings installed, cylinder walls are nice and smooth, got her reassembled and it's running again. Unfortunately it has a knock still so it will sit till I save up some dough for the right engine deal, come on 6.0! At least it can drive up on my...

    5.7L failure

    I will eventually build and upgrade this motor but for now, Ima put her back together so I can move her around at least, drastic move for me may be happening soon, have a good one...

    5.7L failure

    I take it I should avoid the HV pump, is it not beneficial?

    5.7L failure

    Got the pan removed and found connecting rods 6 and 7 with spun bearings. I'm a broke and poor Beaner at the moment and I'd hate the for this truck to just sit there not running. I will mic/plastigauge the journals to see how badly hurt they are and hopefully install new STD+ .001 or .002 U/S...

    5.7L failure

    thanks for the info sir, it is a 4x4 and the third member looks very close and tight with the pan, I will drop the starter and tranny inspection plate and see if I can get it off...rain has interrupted this task :party52: ---------- Post added at 07:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:05...

    5.7L failure

    Hey Sunlit, does the third need to be dropped for the pan to clear?

    5.7L failure

    The 'nali is not doing well at all...here's what I know: My buddy needed a truck and trailer to haul his car off home after some drivetrain prob that left him stranded so I let him use mine. A few hours later I get a call, he says the 'nali just stalled on him on his way back and would not...

    Mystery whirl/whine/houl under dash...

    I sprayed a couple cans of carb cleaner around the intake and everything near by, could not locate a vacuum leak whatsoever...but I found a strange thing: I serviced the tranny filter and pan gasket and refilled with synthetic DEX/Merc fluid. I also changed the engine oil and filter, when I...

    95 yukon keeps blowing park lamp fuse

    it is a short circuit to ground, you'll need to trace the park lamps circuit and check all related wiring for damage causing the problem. Any recent repairs/mods that could have caused this? Radio/deck installations are a common cause...

    Factory bose woofer size

    I probably did over do it, I'm using a PowerAkustik (sp) 1 ohm stable mono amp, but I believe it puts out too much wattage(can't remember how much) for the woofer. It is now blown and thought I could just shove a new one in thinking it was a conventional one. Think I'll just forget about it...
