    Testing the water: FS/T 2013 Tahoe PPV

    I was out ripping around town in the Tahoe earlier today and just kept thinking how much fun it is to drive. And I’m talking to myself like, “Man, imagine if I installed those sway bars I bought months ago”, and “Imagine if I got a high stall converter”, etc.

    FS: Bilstein shocks for 2000 and earlier trucks

    For sale is a full set of Bilstein shocks removed from a 1999 or 2000 Yukon. They are gently used and appear to be close to new. I came across them by chance and they were so nice that I had to pull them. This set would cost well over $300 new. Who wants to save a few bucks and buy these...

    Yeah the chain motors had some issues but this is a belt motor that basically doesn’t fail internally. Almost 100% of 2.7T failures are due to either the belt or cam chain guides failing. A few are due to running the engine out of oil. This is an engine that can be tuned to 500+ awhp without...

    Ha! My Audi is twin turbo, AWD, and manual trans… There are very few cars in that category. Not to mention Audis don’t rust. They are definitely maintenance-intensive, but they aren’t unreliable if you are willing to deal with all of the tedious work. I already have the car completely torn...

    If I’m not able to get what I want then I will just keep it and continue on with my plans. I own a parking lot, so it’s not like it’s taking up space or anything.

    Testing the water: FS/T 2013 Tahoe PPV

    Hey guys… I’m considering getting rid of my PPV. I absolutely love it but I just have too many cars and this one doesn’t do anything that the others can’t do. She is a 2013 that was brought to Chicago from Arizona. I am the second owner, and the first civilian owner. There is a full prisoner...

    Shit… I might just sell it… I’m not in a rush to sell to somebody looking for a cheap cop car, but I would probably be okay with passing this truck off to another enthusiast at the right price. I’m not looking to make money or even break even, but I know what I have. Keep in mind the...

    Well… It would be a pretty mild refresh: DOD delete with maybe a Torquer? Supporting valvetrain Built 6L90E, some converter Those huge sway bars I bought a while back Suspension maintenance, etc.

    Rear Main Seal Leaking After Transmission Rebuild

    YES you should have discussed this with the shop in advance, BUT… A good shop doesn’t overlook stuff like that. They are supposed to be the experts.

    98 tahoe having to replace starter every year to year and a half?

    A lot of “bad” starters are really just clogged with grease. Any chance he has a major fluid leak that keeps soaking the starter?

    Looks like I’m going to put the Tahoe on the waiting list to get ripped apart and rebuilt. Should be a fun 2024.

    I have never even checked the rear diff fluid, TBH. It may well be original. Now that you’ve brought it to my attention, I’m wondering about the temperature aspect. I have issues every single year with my trans fluid freezing, so it’s not far fetched to think the rear diff fluid may also be...

    The shop I just talked to thinks it’s just normal since I don’t have 4x4 but this seems ridiculous.

    I got stuck again this morning in a flat parking lot while other cars were driving right past me. I eventually pulled the fuse and was still stuck for 5-10 more minutes until I was able to gradually inch my way out onto less slick pavement. Maybe my rear IS blown? I hadn’t considered that...

    Continental all-season, basically new. The only point on that topic would be that they are wide, which supposedly is a bad thing on snow and ice. Ideal snow tires are tall and skinny, I guess. But, still, ridiculous. It’s not like I’m doing something super demanding. EDIT: I forgot to mention...

    Guys… I have never been more upset with a vehicle than I am right now. Today… On two different occasions, my Tahoe got stuck in the middle of the road in a residential neighborhood. This is a full-size truck with a posi and brand new all-season tires. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. Look at...

    The brush guard is sold, the Bilsteins are still available. Yes, I know I still need to post pics. In other news: I just went through such a bad breakup that I bought a Challenger in December. It’s a 2010 T/A 5.7 with manual trans. Has the functional hood scoop, rear spoiler, and 20”...

    I have a couple of junkyard scores that I’m trying to flip: The first is a push bar or brush guard or whatever that I took off of a 2009 Suburban. It is in great shape but just needs repainted. I think I will wire brush it and coat it nicely before sale. Ranch Hand is the brand, and...
