    2009 LTZ can’t get rear speakers to trigger

    I’m losing my mind with this thing. Bought a 2009 LTZ that originally had nav and overhead console. Previous owner put a Sony head unit and PAC gm5 in poorly and nothing was working. Figured I’d swap my old kenwood in and everything would be gravy, nope. I gained everything but rear speakers...

    I’m back! This time a year older but fancier

    I sold my 2010 ssv at the end of last year and honestly didn’t think I’d miss it as much as I did. I’ve bought and sold a few dailies I just didn’t like and struggled to figure out what I want then I came across a thread about rare 6.2 tahoes and had to find myself one. That didn’t take long so...

    Is a Denali worth it?

    I’m not new to full size SUV’s and always seem to end up back to looking at them but I’ve never driven or been in a Denali, specifically looking at an 05 Denali xl. My last nbs was an 03 Yukon SLT with full time 4wd and can’t say I loved it over just a selectable 2wd/4wd t case. All the extra...

    Never realized this was odd, upper ball joint brackets on an ssv?

    Did brakes the other day and never noticed these brackets bolted on/around the ball joint. I originally chalked it up to bolt on ball joints which I’ve experienced on other vehicles but after looking at arms it seems like it’s a non serviceable part. I’m thinking maybe they were limiting...

    Doubled down on tahoes

    Well, bought a Yukon but close enough. y daily driver was totaled by a drunk driver and I found myself driving my wife’s (used to be mine nnbs Tahoe instead of the crap rental car I had). It made me miss having the usefulness of an suv so the hunt started. Ended up buying a 2003 Yukon SLT for a...

    NNBS SSV steering wheel with radio controls

    Removed this a while back and just came across it again while cleaning the garage. It really has no visual wear and the plastic isn’t loose like I’ve seen on other ppv/ssv wheels. I also removed the rubbery coating as it was peeling (like all wheels seem to do) and giving it a quick polish made...

    Any truck front end conversions?

    So randomly stumbled upon truck guys putting nnbs Tahoe front ends on trucks. Has anybody ever gone the other way with a truck front end on their Tahoe/Yukon?

    Cam swap people, what cam did you go with and how do you like it?

    What cam did you go with? I’ve got a 2010 ssv with 5.3 and vvt. I’m keeping the vvt but looking for real world drivability on the camshaft you went with. Thanks for any insight.

    Brackets for lower portion of the bumper, need help.

    So my ssv used to be border patrol and originally had a cut bumper just below the crash bar and still has the full skid plates installed. Well over time the current full bumper is flexing so much I’m getting some paint coming off in the corners by the grille. I purchased what I thought was the...

    Who’s dealt with Asia Motors?

    im looking to buy myself a caprice now and they’re much harder to come by than tahoes. Asia motors has a few I’m interested in but I’ve only dealt with Chicago motors (they just don’t have what I want in stock). I’d love to hear good/bad/whatever and if you did strike a deal how flexible they...

    My other vehicles

    I’ve become a bit more active on here so figured I’d throw out a few pics of my other two vehicles. First up, my first car. Started life as a 1970 Buick GS 350/350 car. Put in a 400bbb and then roasted the th350. Car ended up being parked after that outside and then inside. She did not fare...

    For those who have done AFM delete/cam swaps

    did you swap out the oil pump and timing chain? My plan was to go with a Texas-speed vvt stage 2 cam kit. Comes with new springs and push rods and the cam phaser limiter. Most AFM delete kits come with head gaskets, valley cover, lifters, lifter guides and head bolts. Do I need an oil pump and...

    Center console.....paint?

    so I scored a very very cheap console for my ssv but it’s light grey (the rest of the interior is black/ebony). Has anybody had any success with any sort of interior plastic paint? I found lid fabric for $25 on eBay which seems easy enough but I think the different color plastic would bother...

    Is there something that goes around the front tow hooks?

    i looked on gmpartsdirect and didn’t see anything that went on the bumper to go around the tow hooks but it sure looks like something does? Is it just for the blank pieces if you don’t have tow hooks?

    Backup camera location, anybody mount high up underneath the spoiler?

    I have a hitch mounted bike rack that stays on pretty exclusively and I’m thinking only seeing the sides would get old quick. Has anybody mounted it above the rear window instead of above the plate?

    Rear cargo storage....rubber floor problems

    so in my nnbs Sierra I had a rubber tote that sat under my rear seats and worked well for the basics (air inflator, towing stuff, tools etc). Since there’s no storage under the back seat on my ‘hoe I have it in the rear cargo area and use a ratchet strap to keep it from flopping around...

    Anybody else have this roof mount?

    looks like it was for the wiring for the light bar on my Tahoe ssv. Just curious what’s under it and if people have successfully covered it up with something. It’s not leaking yet but doesn’t seem the most sealed. It’s near the windshield drivers side.

    New with 2010 SSV ex border patrol

    hey all! New to the Tahoe world but not gm vehicles. Just picked up a 2010 SSV ex border patrol Tahoe to replace my 07 2500HD Sierra. Ended up driving it home without any issues from Chicago to Denver. Still need to fix a few things here and there and have some mods on the way. It’s got full...
