    33x12 or 32x11

    I have 33 x 11ish (not sure the exact width, I’d have to do the tire size conversion to figure it out) with a 3 1/2” lift and 1” spacers on stock wheels and I get a little rubbing with wheels cranked and im backing out of my driveway or something and hit a dip or back off a curb. Basically only...

    I'm guessing my trans is dead?

    Doesn't smell burnt, just stinky.

    I'm guessing my trans is dead?

    This weekend, trans started slipping and going into random gears so rpms were all over the place. It didn't overheat, the temp was at about 190 to 200 on average but when the random shifting thing happened the temp climbed really quick. I stopped and had it towed home yesterday and looked at my...

    New thermostat overheating

    I had this same issue....It's air in the system causing the temp variation. It would never burp on its own for me, even with the front driver wheel elevated. What I had to do was first replace thermostat. Then then I filled the upper hose from the thermostat hose that connects to the radiator...

    What did you do to your 2015-2020 K2XX Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Yesterday I got new tires. Today I added 1.25inch spacers until I can get new wheels. Gives it a more aggressive look and keeps my new tires from rubbing on my new upper control arms. So now it's has the 3.5" lift up front. 3" in the back. 33" tires.

    silverado fender flares for tahoe/suburban

    I'm looking for some fender flares for my suburban and am wondering if anyone has these or similar ones that will fit? If not, I wonder how much modding would be involved to make these work?

    33" tire width on stock suburban 18" wheels?

    I'm going to put new tires on my suburban. I have a 3" leveling kit on front and 3.5 on back. I want the biggest tire I can fit with little to no trimming. I have read that's a 33"? What width tire should I get for the stock rims. That will stick out maybe an inch or so but nothing too dramatic...

    New upper control arm question

    I installed new upper control arms to go with my lift in front. I'm not sure if they should be this close to the frme when the tires are down or is that just the nature of it with the lift? Or did I not install them right? Or will it be resolved when I get an alignment?

    Also blacked out my rear emblem. I need to redo it though. I messed up on the cutting of the vinyl.

    Questions on Suburban lift.

    Thanks for the reply. Suburban is the same as lifting the tahoe or yukon for these model years. Same kits work. I do offroad quite a bit, which is why I want the lift. So it sounds like it would probably be better just to do upper control arms and stuff too. So If I want to keep a little rake...

    Questions on Suburban lift.

    I want to lift my 2015 Suburban. I think 3.5" at the most since I dont think that will require any major cutting for drop brackets etc. I want 32 or 33" tires. My question is for that little of lift should I do anything other than top and bottom strut spacers in front (2.5" top and 1" bottom)...

    Maybe overthinking but I feel like my suburban runs too hot...

    Thanks. I dont really have a choice but to fix it as I can't sell it with a bad head gasket and I need a car. I'm in Utah.

    Ouchies...anyone know the rough cost on getting that fixed? The shop I took it to doesn't do them.

    Maybe overthinking but I feel like my suburban runs too hot...

    So I took it to a mechanic and they told me that "they hooked it up to there machine and it had a hydrocarbon level in the 80's which tells them that it has a cracked head gasket or cylinder head" does that sound right? Or should I get a second opinion? I don't have antifreeze in my oil and am...

    I understand the normal temp is fine but are the spikes I'm getting normal?

    Maybe overthinking but I feel like my suburban runs too hot...

    Had it for about 6 months. I've put about 10k miles on it. It just recently (within the last 1.5 months) started heating up. I changed the thermostat because it would never heat up past about 1/4 of the guage. Happened after I changed my thermostat and water pump pulley (it was chattering). It...

    Maybe overthinking but I feel like my suburban runs too hot...

    Alright, I had a little time today so I hooked up my Bluetooth obd adapter and drove around for an hour. Pulled up the coolant temp in torque. After it warms up it runs most of the time at between 215 and 220 degrees. I got up to 237 twice. Each time I was accelerating to get on the highway...

    Is there a way to tell if the water pump is bad other than switching it out?

    I checked fans by pulling over when it's hot and the fan is on. A/C runs fine too. Car is cool inside with the ac on

    The rad fan is on when the thermostat kicks on and when it's hot
