    Me again!!

    Yes they do and I greased them all to add from what was there from the factory. I just got a new master cylinder in so I’m going to now do process of elimination. Hopefully the MC does the trick… or not then a new brake booster. I mean hell… all else has been replaced! What did you do all...

    Me again!!

    I ended up replacing all four calipers, pads, and rubber brake hoses. I’m still getting the drag on the brakes… but it’s not all the time I drive. I’ve done the brake pedal test and check the check valve on the booster. There are no signs of the booster or the master cylinder “leaking” but see...

    Front Brake hose replacement

    Ok fellas… i got my front and rear calipers and brake pads along with new rubber hoses on all corners. I’ve bled all four corners and burped the ABS system about ten times… I am still having the brake stage but not all the time. Case in point today, I left the house and all was good but when I...

    Front Brake hose replacement

    Unfortunately, I’m todays “economy!” I can only do fronts. I’ll get to the rears pretty soon though! I can definitely bleed the rears when I do the fronts. Thanks guys!

    Front Brake hose replacement

    Quick question… I’m about to replace the rubber brake hoses on my 02 Tahoe LS 4x4… when I’m done, can I bleed just the front brakes or do I need to bleed all four starting from the right rear? Reason I ask… a YouTube vid showed just the fronts being bled after changing the lines out. Thanks!

    Bad popping/thumping noise from front end, 2006 Tahoe

    I wasn’t aware of those bushings… but I could/can feel mine is in the front wheel area. Hub is new although it sat for about a year before I put it on

    Bad popping/thumping noise from front end, 2006 Tahoe

    Mine might be ballpoint related…my helper recently advised me he didn’t know that the stem needed to travel a certain direction. I’m hearing/feeling the clunk when i reverse from left to right. Ill see what i come up with without my helper!!

    Bad popping/thumping noise from front end, 2006 Tahoe

    Hey fellas… it’s been a while since I’ve been on here. I have a 2002 Tahoe with a similar issue. I have a squeak when driving after I replaced the sway bar bushings… I know I have a bad shock but it makes a different noise. I changed the short axles. Ball joints etc on both sides. Do y’all think...

    Brake bleeding

    Ok...old post I started but now I changed my front brakes. Did the one man bleed on rears and all came out fine...no bubbles either side. I get to the passenger front side and very little thru the tube although the bleeder has fluid coming out. Tried self bleed, then two man and hardly anything...

    Brake issues after new front calipers

    I may grab some duralast pads since its a duralast caliper and see if that helps.

    Brake issues after new front calipers

    I'm in the middle of doing my front brakes on my Tahoe. My issue is 8 can't get the rotor to turn by hand after assembly unless I loosen the slide pins. Is this expected and then changes once the fluid line is reconnected and bled? I bought the a.c. Delco rotors and pads for my truck and...

    02 ignition issues...still!

    Alright fellas, I got the starter pulled from my Tahoe and the reman a.c. Delco locally from Advance. Got it installed and voila... thanks for the pointers. I really appreciate it.

    02 ignition issues...still!

    Well...after wrecking my brain about the ignition switch I ordered from RA...i realised the only "real" thing I hadnt done was give the ole starter a light tap or two like my pop taught me as a kiddo...so I tried that and I'll be damned if it didn't start right right up...guess this rig will get...

    02 ignition issues...still!

    I believe the part from AZ is the D1466E. It crossed with the GM part for my vin/z. I was incorrect in saying GM no longer made the switch...they are just more pricy. As far as the passlock, I'm not getting that indicator on the dash...furthermore, I only have the security light flash at start...

    02 ignition issues...still!

    When you say ignition switch, do you mean this entire harness or just the little box that goes in underneath the key cylinder? The pic below is the a.c. Delco from Auto zone btw.

    02 ignition issues...still!

    Yes, I checked every single fuse on the inside as well as outside. I even reversed the starter relay with the headlamp relay...relays are good...i checked with the local dealership and the for the harness and it's no longer made?. So I'm wondering now if it's the key cylinder or the passlock sensor?

    02 ignition issues...still!

    I looked but only commented on someone else's post having the same issue. YouTube points to either passlock sensor, or the small 3 prong plug wedge trick but I've tried all those things. All dash lights and guages work, just no crank.

    02 ignition issues...still!

    Hey y'all...what happened with Tapatalk? Anywho...ive asked before about ignition tips as mine seems to not work at all now... I've tried everything from checking all the fuses and relays, wedging the ignition plug etc...i was able at times to do the fast key crank, wire wiggle and it would...

    2002 5.3 intake manifold gasket replacement.

    I did the same for my 02...i did so because I had to replace the knock sensors so I changed the sensors...new pigtail, and them went ahead and did intake gasket. I also cleaned the inside of intake, and cleaned all the fuel injectors. It's one of those times where if you open it up replace...
