    Oil and filter recommendations

    A search brought me to this thread, but I didnt see the answer. Does anyone know the AC Delco longer version of the PF48E? I see the K&N 2011 may be a longer filter, any other brands that a longer version is known? TIA

    Cabin Air Filter Retrofit

    I ordered a replacement filter for my new to me 2012 and was quite surprised to find it did not have the filter option. Box is clearly molded as if it was an option. Ordered the retro kit and will make the mod next week.

    20" wheels to 17"

    Final chapter. I ordered the Schrader 21507 TPM's and got them installed today. They sync'd up so ive got my pressure readings back. SO all-in, im inside of $200 + my time to swap the 8 wheels.

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

    New to me 2012. Swapped the 20's off the 2012 with my 17's off my broke 03 I still have. I prefer the taller sidewall AT tires to the lower profile street threads. IMO, it looks better. On the list for future mods is window and sunroof vents, backup cam and aftermarket bluetooth media unit...

    20" wheels to 17"

    Finally got this deal wrapped up Thursday afternoon and got the truck home. Got the wheels swapped yesterday. Yes, the 17" fit on a 2012 in place of the 20". The 17's have 255/75 and the 20's have 275/55. The rolling distance was exactly the same, so the speedo is good, not recal needed. So...

    20" wheels to 17"

    Very good point. I do recall that my 03 gen benefited from a later year break upgrade. I cant remember what year model the break upgrade was from, but I do not recall wheels being involved.

    20" wheels to 17"

    Inked a deal on a 2012 and it has 20" OEM wheels with a lower profile tire. I still have a my 2003 that has the OEM 17" wheels. The all terrain tires on my 03 are hardly broke in and have a much taller sidewall v's the tires in the 2012 with the 20's. For off road use, I much prefer the extra...

    6 Speed reliability.

    Still on the hunt for a new Yukon. It was stated that 09 was the year the 6 speed started. So my question, how is its reliability v's mileage? Thanks,

    Front Diff or Transfer Case

    Update; Ive had some time on and off the past week to work on the rig. The noise is in the area of the trans tail shaft and input stage of the transfer case. Pulled the t/case and no noise or abnormal feel when turning the t/case shaft by hand. Put the trans mount and crossmember back in and...

    Front Diff or Transfer Case

    I know the front ratio will be the same as the rear, just wanted to make sure there was not a differential type RPO to insure I source the correct front diff. There are 2 RPOs for the rear. One is the ration and other denotes if its a peg leg or limited.

    Front Diff or Transfer Case

    Good question, but there is definitely output shaft rotation when shifted into reverse as well as forward. She makes all kings of noise in gear, but purrs like a kitten when in park.

    Front Diff or Transfer Case

    Cant figure out the front diff's RPO. Any guesses on what let it would start with? Of what front diff RPO's an 03 Z71 4x4 would have possibly come with? I do know this rig has a donor rear diff, so I do need to confirm its ratio matches the RPO.

    Front Diff or Transfer Case

    Somtin blew. It made a chit load of noise and shudder, as a came to a stop. Would still move forward, but not reverse. Made a very load whirring sound when moving. Will be Wednesday at the earliest before I can get it moved into my shop and on jack stands. Just getting the feelers out there to...

    Engine Size and Year

    No replacement for displacement, right? In all seriousness, If spending the money to upgrade, why not make a larger engine, if available, part of that upgrade plan? The larger engine is available in the burb chassis and pickup for a reason. Yes, my truck tows for a living. Are the actual tow...

    Engine Size and Year

    Good info. Not in a hurry this time around and can likely purchase the new rig without the need to sell the old one before. The burbs and XLs are too long for me, but agree it would likely be an easier find and at a good price for one with the larger motor.

    Engine Size and Year

    Newer, but not new, but was hoping that by moving up a few years newer, I could also get a larger engine. So outside of a few unicorns, it seems that the 5.3L is still the engine in the Tahoe? The Denali or escalade may be a trim level im not wanting to spend that much for. Dont need a fancy...

    Engine Size and Year

    Nope, dont want a hybrid. But if if gonna spend the coin on a newer, lower mileage rig, I want the larger engine if there is such a thing. Otherwise, ill put some $$$ in the 03 and keep it. Whats funny, I bought a new 2002 trailblazer with the 4.2 I6 late in the year model, over waiting a...

    Engine Size and Year

    Currently have an 03 4wd with 5.3 flex and looking to upgrade by a few years and lower miles. So my question is, starting in what year, did the Tahoe offer a larger engine? And was it the 6.0 or 6.2? and was it the 6.0 first then the 6.2? And if so, whats the years those engine where offered? TIA

    Horrible MPG

    Wiring Dash Cam for Power with Key?

    Been over a year, so cant recall, sorry. Just used my DVOM to find a switched IGN.

    Wiring Dash Cam for Power with Key?

    Take the knee bulster down. This gets you access to the back of the fuse/relay box. I wired my GPS there.

    Stock subwoofer blown, looking for easy replacement.

    If the physical specs check out, this is what I would use for an OHM swap. https://www.kicker.com/comp-c-8-svc-subwoofer
