    2001 GMC Yukon lost Cruise control and Fog lights at re same time??

    I'll make this as as short as possible. I went on a long vacation after buying a Ram 2500 Cummins to tow a Fifth Wheel around the country for a year. I put my 01 Yukon in storage in Kentucky for a year. I treated the gas at 1/8 a tank, changed the oil before putting it in storage. Everything...

I know...

    Starting having issues with reverse :( 2001 yukon xl

    The last couple days reverse has been acting strange on perfectly flat ground it seems to engage ok but if there's a slight incline very slight it jumps or drops out? The fluid is full and clean the filter was charged about 18 months ago forward is fine at all speeds and inclines. What can I...

Bump stops front and back Moog, sway bar bushings and links (Moog) it's been real...

    How to protect rear AC lines from salt??? Any ideas?

    I have a gallon of 303 it’s ok but wears off fast especially when it gets wet the lines will sweat when the ac is running I might try wiping pure silicone grease on them. I use it for the door seals and it lasts months.

    Steering issues after 90% rebuild?

    Finally solved it! Apparently the Ford dealership I took it to for a alignment (didn't have a choice everyone else was booked 2 weeks out) left the upper control arm bolts loose or at least they didn't torque them to the required 140 lbs the vehicle called for! I also had 4 loose ball joints (if...

    Steering issues after 90% rebuild?

    I went on my road trip about 8500 miles round trip in 35 days and when I went to rotate the tires I say the cupping on the rear? So I have to idea what’s wrong unless the frame or a suspension part is tweaked Iot was aligning at a dealership they said the alignment was almost perfect before any...

    Steering issues after 90% rebuild?

    Now the tires are feathering on the rear axle? The left more then the right? It’s the inside of the tires the left has probably been damaged beyond repair (at least I cannot just run it on another wheel to flatten it out again) and from what I have read this is from bad shocks? But all 4 shocks...

    Steering issues after 90% rebuild?

    I don't know if the cluster will say anything about it? It's. 2001 was it intigated that far into the ODBII in 2001? But yeah I was going to either unplug the valve on the pump or the Sensor on the steering shaft, and see if it helps? The sensor is more for my year than I expected averaging...

    Steering issues after 90% rebuild?

    That’s a possibility or the unit in the pump? The dealer says it shouldn’t cause this but I may try changing it anyway to see if it makes a difference? Or disable it temporarily to see if the steering behaves?

    Steering issues after 90% rebuild?

    Not yet it seems snug and that wouldn't explain the intermittent issue? There are times when it handles normal? I'm starting to think a cracked frame or something that can shift throwing a wrench into how it's supposed to handle! I looked pretty close but have to find a lift to get it in the...

    Steering issues after 90% rebuild?

    It was disconnected I was changing the CV axle as you can see almost everything is new! I even put a steering stabilizer on it! That made no difference at all so I'm starting to worrie that it might have a cracked frame or something that I don't see yet causing the drift? It sometimes handles...

    Steering issues after 90% rebuild?

    I think it's called the center Link unless they renamed them since I went to aito Tech school back in the 80s? I had never heard it called that before.

    Steering issues after 90% rebuild?

    I have to look at it I am pretty sure it was all original before I touched anything but someone could have done something! The tie rods, Pittman arm, iflei arm we're most likely original? But that could be the issue I'll let you know what I find? I just replaced the driver side CV axle the small...

    Steering issues after 90% rebuild?

    Everything is stock except for the rear spring / shock conversion kit from Bilstein, the stock setup should work but I drove other similar SUVs like Tahoe’s, Escalades etc and they handle how I would expect! I’m missing something and it’s going to either be stupid and obvious or serious and...

    Steering issues after 90% rebuild?

    Here's the stance of the Yukon it's really level much better than with the Nivomats we're! (I put a Bilstein shock, coil spring conversation kit on the rear saved over $500 vs just the 2 oem shocks) I wish it had the air level would have been cheeper to fix since the Nivos cost +$400 each and...
