    No More EGR Block Off Plates?

    Is there a ban on EGR block off plates sold in the US? I can't find anyone that has them in stock or shows them as available anymore. The GM part is discontinued and no one else stocks aftermarket ones, that I can find searching around. I'm installing long tubes that don't have an EGR...

    01 Yukon Denali Build Thread

    I suppose it's time to do one of these. It's a 2001 Yukon Denali and had 194,700 miles on it. I bought it back in Oct 2020. I got it off someone who had picked it up in Colorado so it was almost rust free. Two little spots around the rear wheel wells. Mechanically it was in pretty good...

    Played Around with Dragy

    I picked up a Dragy a few weeks ago and finally played around with it today. If you aren't familiar, you can use it to get your 0-60, 1/8, 1/4 mile times based on GPS. Most feedback online about Dragy says it's pretty accurate to actual track times. My main reason was to find out how much I...

    Denali Grille Options

    I'm not a fan of the honeycomb grille that's in the Denali. Anyone know if I can swap to the SLE/SLT horizontal bars? From pics, they look like they'd be the same size and interchange. I was looking aftermarket, but everything out there is just an overlay. Looks like it needs the honeycomb...

    00-01 Cat back different than 02-06

    I can't seem to find why the cat back exhaust systems are different for 00-01 from 02-06 for the Denalis. I even reached out to Magnaflow why their cat back is only listed for 02-06 and they couldn't give me any better answer than "our engineers must have seen something different". Does anyone...

    Updates for Tech2?

    I have a GM Tech2 that I got from an old job. They were doing scan tool benchmarking and no longer needed it. Win for me, downside is it only will work up to 07 vehicles. Does anyone know of a way/place to get these updated?

    Volt Gauge Bouncing

    I've had an intermittent issue recently with my volt gauge bouncing around/twitching. It seems to happen more under load, but will still move a bit at idle/light throttle at times. I replaced the belt tensioner since it was sticking a bit, and had the 1 year old alternator tested a couple...

    Exhaust Options

    I'm planning and starting to get parts together for a spring top end build on my 01 Denali. I've decided to go with 5.3 long tubes and then replace the existing magnaflow catback with a 5.3 cat back. The whole exhaust system can be replaced much cheaper than just buying 6.0 specific long...

    Window switch LED conversion, now no power for switch lights

    I was changing all my switches over to LED per ScottyBoy's thread. I did the driver master switch last and went to hook it up no LEDs came on. Double checked that I soldered everything, looked good. Took a test light, with interior lights on, and no light between the brown wire and black...

    Another P0300 Thread

    It comes on a few trips after clearing it. I replaced plugs and wires. I've tried both .060 and now .040 gap plugs. NGK TR5 currently. Wires are Taylor. Fuel pressure is low 50s at key on, engine off, holds pressure. Fuel pressure running is high 40s. Reading the misfire graph in Tech2...

    DJM Sway Bar Link and LCA Relocation Kit Doesn't Fit

    I'm working on installing the DJM kit and nothing seems to be lining up. The sway bar won't move over far enough to bolt onto the link before it hits the shock. The lower control arm relocation bracket won't sit flush, this I assume because their kit may not work with the Belltech shock...

    Lowered Towing Set Up

    For those that are lowered and tow, what do you use for a raised hitch set up? We have a camper with a weight distribution hitch. The drop hitch isn't tall enough when I invert it, so I'll have to get a taller one. Just curious to see others and if you have any clearance issues if you run a...

    Seat Restore Options

    I've been searching around and it looks like it is going to be pretty pricey to replace seat covers/cushions for my 01 Yukon Denali. I'm seeing the bottom cover for at least $150, cushion for $100, back for over $200, arm rest cover for $40. I stopped searching around once I hit $500 for one...

    DJM RK2000 Kit Necessary for 2/4 Drop?

    I'm getting parts gathered to drop my 01 Yukon Denali, with the kit from either TBSS Owners or Summit (looks like they're identical). Those that have done this, are the LCA relocation brackets and sway bar end links necessary? I have no problem adding them, just don't want to if they're not...

    Adjustable Panhard Bar Options

    I'm planning on a 2/4 drop this spring, starting to collect parts now. I know Spohn has an adjustable panhard bar, but saw that Rocket Man said there is hardly any clearance for the diff cover. He installed a QA1 bar, but I wasn't able to tell if it was adjustable or not. Their site doesn't...

    Small speakers on either side of center console

    When I had my center console apart on my 01 Yukon Denali, I noticed there were two small (3.5-4"?) speakers in there. I haven't seen these mentioned anywhere. Are they wired to the radio, or for something else?

    00-02 Bose Sub Upgrade

    I'm considering upgrading the rear sub in my Yukon Denali. I know the Bose sub is an oddball shape, so while at the junkyard, I found and grabbed a sub box out of a Tahoe. I'm not looking to push a ton of power/bass, but I'm assuming any kind of an aftermarket sub/amp combo would be better...

    HVAC Control Head?

    Just want to make sure I'm not missing anything here. My HVAC only blows out of the dash vents. When I actuate the mode door with a Tech2, I can get it to sweep from the dash, to the floor, defrost, and back. So I know the actuator works. Seems like the control head would be the issue. I've...

    Which Ignition Lock Cylinder

    The lock cylinder seems to be going out on the 01 Yukon Denali I just bought. You have to roll the key around up/down/back/forth, etc until it finally turns. The vehicle only came with one key that is pretty worn down. I was going to replace the lock cylinder and just have two keys, not a big...
