Hey are you still in Topeka? I was probably 20 pages back when you hit one of our potholes.
I can put you on a good cheeseburger while you are here.

 

[Walchit]

Or you can pull up in the gravel out back, I definitely have the tools to do a control arm, unless we need something special for the coil over

 

[Walchit]

Sent you a message with my phone number if you need anything

Brotherhood!

I'm a newb here, but if anyone needs help driving though this sh*thole I call home...lol.
Not gonna lie, I am hoping to hear this thing. When I saw that you were in Topeka I instantly looked up to the date.

The dealer is sending a shuttle to pick us up to get the Tahoe. I'll update more once I pick it up.

 

[Walchit]

Did you make it home?

 

[Fless]

Did you make it home?

Might be a struggle, it's uphill all the way!

Seriously, I've been wondering, too.

 

[Walchit]

Starting to worry now... Topeka is fairly rough, hope they made it out of here lol

 

[Rocket Man]

@mikeyss did you make it home? We are all hanging man!

Sorry for the long lapse here, I made it home safely. But since I've been home, a lot of non Tahoe bad things have been happening in my life, and I've sort of shut down emotionally/mentally. But, I am starting to feel myself again, and thank you all for being here!

I haven't done much to the Tahoe since the incident except for rig the bumper and fender liner to stay attached. The 6.2 (almost 6.3) is running so awesome, it's got almost 10k on it already. BUT.... I think my 6L80 is showing signs of saying goodbye.... I hear it shift but I don't feel it shift if that makes sense, haha. 175k on it, I'm guessing the extra 100-150 hp is making it tired.

Missed you guys and hope you are well

That's why my trans went on my 03 when I put the 6.0 in. Couldn't handle the extra horsies lol. Glad to see you back.

Thanks for the update..! Glad you’re safe. Sorry for the life troubles. Hopefully things straighten up quickly for you.

From the Book of Matthew, 11th Chapter: “Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.”

The Tahoe has been pissy lately. Both batteries died, had a flat and have been driving on the spare for 3 weeks now because I'm STILL waiting on my replacement Sierra All Terrain wheel (the one that got damaged from defective ball joint failure), AND......... My 6L80 is giving me signs of pump failure.

Sorry to hear your Tahoe is acting up on you.

Glad to see you posting again.
