    L96 "Ghost Knock" and Supercharger?

    So i've been keeping up with @Chrismnj 's thread and have been thinking about a supercharger for my 2500 which has the L96 6.0L. When Justin was tuning my truck we were having an issue with some knocking at WOT and we couldn't get rid of it; tried different gas stations, adjusted the tune...

    Matt's Yukon XL 2500 (Giant Silver Unicorn) Build

    Finally at the point where I can post an actual build thread with action, not just 'plans'. So a bit of background... I've always had an offroad vehicle of some type, from Explorers to Wranglers to Cherokees to Silverado & Sierra trucks. My most recent vehicle was a nicely modified Jeep...

    NJ BBP Spring Tune Date/Location?

    Putting my lift and tires on this weekend, and planning on regearing late March or early April which will obviously require a tune. Ideally id like to do an in person tune with an Autocal before regearing, then having the 4.56 tune ready to go. I noticed Spring 2018 'to be scheduled' for an...

    GMT900 front bumper trimming

    I've already trimmed the bumper support bracket for more clearance with the wheel well liner, but I think I'm going to also need to trim a bit of the bumper itself even after the lifts installed. Anyone have pics or tips for how they did this? I like when it's hard to tell if trimming was...

    Bronze Wheels??

    I think this style has been around long enough that it's not going to turn into a fad... and i've always felt they looked good on the "right" vehicle. I'm just debating whether my vehicle and 'vision' is one of those applications. My Yukon XL is a giant sea of colorless silver. I couldn't...

    Passenger front carpet wet - GMT900 Yukon

    While installing my AMP steps I noticed the carpet was wet on the passenger side. I gave the sunroof and door seals a good once over and nothing seemed terribly out of place, so I dried it out and let it be for the time being. We just had a few good days of rain and it's wet again. Which...

    Thule Aeroblade Crossbars

    Anyone have the Aeroblade crossbars? I have the factory ones, but looking to take them off and would like to get a set that's easier to R&R for when I need them. Couldn't find many pictures with them on GMT900 SUVs and wondering if they're low profile or stick up higher

    Questions for tuning an L96

    Lug Nuts

    ... yes, lug nuts. Put White Knight lug nuts on with new wheels in August, and they're already rusted. I used my Jeep when the roads were crappy this winter, so its not like they were salt baked either. So.... for fear of having the same issue with another set, what lug nuts have you guys...

    AMP Research Powersteps

    Looking for pics & info on the powersteps for GMT900 trucks. How they look and function. And if anyone has had issues with paint chips on the rocker panels (stock running boards seem to deflect most road debris) Will be lifting my truck soon and like the powersteps for my kids since they come...

    305/60/18s on my XL 2500

    Lighting isn't the best but wanted to snap a few shots. Was surprised they fit but I can turn lock to lock with room to spare, thanks to turning up the bars 1" and some careful trimming. 305/60/18 ATZ P3s 18x9 +18mm MO975 wheels

    New Yukon XL 2500 member from NJ

    Hey everyone figured I'd introduce myself. I'm new to this forum but have been around GM forums for over a decade... everything since the good ol days of CTW to gm-trucks, FSC, and GMFS. I started with a 2005 silverado that ended up with about 8" lift and 36" tires (with some strategic...

    Experience with black denali grills

    Looking for reviews/opinions on black denali-style grill replacements. Seems there are a few manufacturers, and a few on ebay.... all plastic. Don't want to get one and have it feel/look cheap.
