    Suspension Squats when loaded down

    Well for starters, you're squatting so bad because the truck is missing a couple hundred pounds with the front bumper removed. The 2 inch lift also contributes to the squat. Your truck originally came with Nivomat self-adjusting shocks out back (ZW7 paired with G65). Judging by those photos...

    2013 Denali with 6.2 prone to burn oil?

    My 5.3 has always consumed oil when my wife drives it. She routinely spins the motor up past 3,500 rpms pulling away from every traffic light. I don't drive so aggressively and consequently don't burn much oil if any. The previous owner may have been a cheapskate and ran 87 octane gas in that...

    6L80E compability?

    @NickTransmissions At the very least, the back of the transmission is going to be different as yours is set up for AWD. The output shaft may be of a different spline count. Nick will know all that.

    Definitely was going to get the snorkel too! They used to make it for our GMT900 SUVs but now only the pickups. On some forms of media he does come across that way or used to so he could appeal to a certain demographic I guess. Most of his newer Youtube videos are more matter of fact and...

    Huh, my memory was that a better flowing airbox did nothing until the engine was making over 350-375 horsepower. Then again, he tests on an engine dyno with headers and his baseline junkyard engines are making about 375 horsepower at the flywheel if I remember right. I was going to get a...

    Was that with a stock 5.3 or a modified or larger engine? Recent video? Haven't watched him in a while.

    2015 Tahoe blend door

    If your airbox is the same as the previous generations, it's in the passenger footwell near the transmission hump.

    Useless Information

    Late last year one of my cousins was diagnosed with bone marrow and blood cancer. He went home to be with the Lord two nights ago. My wife, children and I had been driving 200-300 miles a day to visit with him and all the family that drove and flew into town. Trucks ran great through 105...

    which HVAC actuator? (2011 Tahoe)

    Does the AC blow cold at all out of any of the vents?

    [Solved] What/where does this go to?

    The bundle of wires can hook up to your underhood fuse box to power your trailer's "hotel" services, like lights, fridge, battery, etc. Once hooked up, it transfers power through the 7-pin whether the engine is running or not so beware. As for the connector, I "think" it's for the Z55 strut on...

    Passenger Seat Frame Removal & Replacement

    Have ordered a lot through GMPartsGiant. Have had cancelled orders, incorrect or missing items and slow (to me) shipping. They always corrected any errors, just move a little slower than we're used to. I appreciate their website and that of GMPartsDirect and others like them and try to send a...

    Passenger Seat Frame Removal & Replacement

    You ought to be able to get the right part number from GMPartsGiant. The instructions for R&R can be found via subscription at AllDataDIY. Did mine three years ago. Center console has to come out to get at the inner bolts/nuts if memory serves. Not a hard job, just heavy. Once out, we...

    There really is nothing like these trucks!!!!

    The Tahoe did her job by protecting you and yours. Many men on here have done the same, their truck was sacrificed to protect the occupants and they go out and buy another; without regret.

    A/C stops working randomly

    The three flashes of the indicator lamp are telling you that the compressor is unavailable. The temperature has to be over 40 degrees for the compressor to run. If your temperature sensor is fine, your symptom is indicative of low refrigerant.

    What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Ok, so you kept the 10-bolt and put in stronger axles, got it. If you have an aftermarket center section, like a Trutrac and are putting 6.2 like power through it, the time before it requires overhaul will be shorter than the bigger axle or smaller engine but should be fine with occasional use...

    Took the family to Steak 'n Shake for dessert last night in Vero, for those patriotic birthday shakes with the little chocolate statue of liberty on top. About an 80 mile or so round trip. The new battery was now taking a charge and the battery temperature was just a few degrees above ambient...

    It happens, I hadn't expected the dealership unable to find my leak either, or to break my camera and deny it!

    Useless Information

    Went outside this afternoon and the battery was at 12.6 volts and 70% state of charge. Cleared all codes again and got the seats working by using the Tech-2 to move them and then the door buttons worked once again. I also finally remembered to replace that fuse for the rear accessory outlet...

    When I go on trips, I already know where we're going to stop. Always have plenty of fuel in reserve in case we get held up due to an accident or bad weather and such. Lost a t-top on 7 mile bridge once! It didn't take kindly to triple digit speeds in a Trans Am! LOL Oh, what's going on with...
