    Battery not charging message but it is sometimes

    After finally getting my 04 Denali back up and running it was fine for a few weeks and now I'm getting a battery not charging message. I put a new interstate battery in when I did the transmission a month ago. I went to take it out 2 weeks ago and when I started got the battery not charging...

    Trying to figure out what my custom Denali is worth

    I have an 04 Denali with about 150k on it. A few months ago I had a tranny cooler leaked and burnt out the built transmission. The truck has been sitting aside from moving it around in the yard. I was doing the math and it's going to be more money to fix than it's worth. The new tranny is only...

    Got some new shoes for the Denali

    I picked up a set of 22's for my 04 Yukon. They were freshly repainted and for $700 I couldn't turn it down. I planned to repaint them gunmetal but the red is growing on me quickly. What do you guys think? I still need to raise the front end up to clear a little better, although they don't rub...

    02 pesky full part out

    The transmission in my brothers 02 Escalade went so we're parting it out. The truck has about 129k on it and aside from some rust in the lower rear doors and rockers the truck is in good shape. The transmission lol ost 4th and reverse so would be good for a rebuild and if you want it I can get a...

    Found a great speaker for our trucks

    I found a great speaker upgrade for the door speakers in our trucks. I pulled two pair of Fusion 7" marine speakers from a boat I stripped and thought they'd work well and damn they do. The speakers are 4 ohm so they work with the Bose amp and they've got a ton of bass, especially if you've...

    Need some suggestions on mods for the Denali

    I have an 04 Yukon Denali that will be going in for a transmission rebuild in a few weeks. The trans will be built with high energy bands, corvette shift servo, larger cooler and some other "heavy duty" parts. I figured while it's out I should do a few of those "since I'm already in there"...

    Crank sensor went? Changed and now won't start

    My truck died getting off the highway a few days ago. I was driving along and heard a few small back fires then lost all power. I managed to get off the highway and have the truck towed home. It would start but wouldn't even get up to idle speed then died in a second or two. I've been having a...

    Aluminum radiator on Denali

    Has anyone ever used one of these radiators https://www.carid.com/liland-global/radiator-mpn-2370aa.html. I need to replace the one on my 04 Yukon and it's only about $20 more for full aluminum over one with plastic tanks

    Engine running a little warm

    My 04 Yukon Denali has been running intermittently warm lately. I've got about 125k on it and replaced the water pump and thermostat less than 500 miles ago. It runs anywhere from 1 dash below half to almost 3/4. There doesn't seem to be any regularity to it either. sometimes idle is right at...

    Anyone have pics of clear Denali head lights?

    I'm thinking about taking the amber lenses out of my front Denali lights and possibly blacking the chrome out so they match my new front grille better. I haven't been able to find any pics of what the lights look like with the amber lenses removed and if possible blacked out. I've seen a few...

    04 Yukon Denali AWD to 4WD swap

    I've got a few questions about swapping the AWD transfer case in my 04 Yukon Denali to a push button 4wd setup and wanted to know if anyone's done it. I talked to transfer case express and they said to use a 263 case as it is dimensionally the same so I won't have to change drive shafts. I will...

    G80 swap into 04 Yukon Denali

    I have an 04 Yukon Denali and will be attempting to swap a push button 4wd transfer case in place of my AWD system. I'm also getting a good deal on the G80 rear axle from the same truck and want to swap it for the LSD. My axle and the one I'm getting are both 3.73. The rear ABS setup on my axle...

    Can I bag the rear instead of new springs?

    I just lowered my 04 Yukon Denali about 4" using a maxtrac kit. Front spindles and keys and rear springs. Along with the new shocks the truck feels amazing. Very little body roll and not too harsh over bumps. My only issue with the kit is the rear springs didn't get me enough of a drop. I've...

    Test fit the new roll pan today

    My new roll pan came in yesterday so I got to fitting it up first thing this morning. It looks great and aside from being a little tight on the sides it fits pretty good. It matches the body lines very well too. The only permanent mod I needed to do was trim about 2" off the end of the flame...

    Thought I'd post my new grille

    I started working on the new grille for my 04 Denali today. The grille insert is gloss black stainless mesh. I'm also going to be removing the tow hooks and lower grille and changing that one out too. It's just a mockup now but the ring around the grille will also be black and the wings around...

    Finally getting somewhere on my speaker box build

    I started working out my ideas for the speaker box I'm building for my 04 Denali. Nothing crazy just a single 12". The box itself fits behind the driver side rear panel kind of like the 02-03 trucks. My box takes up most of the room in the cavity though and the face of the speaker box is...

    Any other way to turn on E-fan pins

    I have an 04 Yukon Denali and want to swap out the mechanical fan for an electric. BB wants $125 just to turn on the activation pins, which at that cost I might as well spend the extra $ for a tune also. I'd like to know if there is any other way to have the pins activated so I don't have to...

    Pushbutton transfer case swap

    I have an 04 Yukon Denali with full time AWD. I'd like to swap the transfer case for something that will give me 2hi, 4hi and 4lo with the push button. I know the regular Yukons and Tahoes use them but not sure if one is any stronger than the other and what years will fit with the least amount...

    Adding power fold mirrors to 04 Denali?

    I've got an 04 Yukon Denali and want to add power folding mirrors. I've got a set of housings from an 05 Esky that my brother needed the lenses out of. I did some searching to try and find out what else I need to get them to work on my truck. Has anyone done the swap or seen a write up...

    Radio won't turn off and driver door doens't lock

    I've got an 04 Yukon Denali with a double DIN Android head unit. I've had it in the truck for the last year or so with no problems but in the last 2 days the radio doesn't shut off when I open the driver door (with the ignition off). I have to open another door to get the radio to shut down. I'm...

    Figured out my next project :(

    I had to get the outdrives for my boat sandblasted (a whole other project) and figured I'd have the blaster clean up a few spots on my truck while he was there. I had some rust on both rockers under the rear doors and a few spots above the drive rear wheel well. The driver rocker and wheel well...

    Expected transmission life span

    Does anyone have a ball park idea on the expected life span of the 4L65 tranny? I'm at 108k and a buddy of mine that rebuilds transmissions says it's usually about 100-110k. I don't know if that's the life span of the ones he sees or if that's about all they last.

    Two problems with steering wheel buttons

    I started to pull the steering wheel buttons in my 04 Yukon Denali to replace the bulbs with blue LED's. I got the top buttons done but the bottom buttons won't come out. It almost feels like the wires are too short to get them out far enough. Is there another way to take the steering wheel...

    Rear climate controller doesn't work

    The rear climate/media controller in my 04 Yukon Denali is acting up and I'm not sure why. If I hit the power button for the climate control it will turn the screen on but the only thing that shows up is the feet and face arrows and it says OFF. It will then turn off after a few seconds. When I...
