Dang... I thought I was being productive! Looks great!

Thanks. Only a few hours. It would suck to do this by hand. The old 10" random orbit buffer did great.

Just buy that off the showroom floor? Lol
Clean as a whistle ! (Still don't know what the phrase means lol)

Yeah, it came out nice for only using stuff you can buy at Walmart. Apparently ALL whistles are very clean??? lol

Horrible ride! On the highway at 60 me and my passenger were borderline scared for our life. I traded for some oem Silverado SS wheels and the ride quality instantly dramatically improved

Something ain't right then cuz I can go 97mph with my 26s no shakes... my buddy has ppv Tahoe on 26s and we got 120+

I don't remember. I bought it when I installed the sub in the rear quarter. I want to say like $80

I will say my 11 Sierra was easier the Tahoe!

Picked up a set of denali chrome interior handles, dash bezel and cluster for my '02 last weekend and finally got around to installing it all. I added LEDs to the cluster while I had it out, getting the trans temp is my favorite part!!

Something was definitely wrong but didn't want to invest even more money into them. Bought em used and replaced all tires so there's no telling what it could have been. But now it rides great so I guess that's all that matters and the SS wheels look dope 2

PCV catch can.

Ebay thing. Quality isn't bad. Not great either. Milling is a bit rough and it had a bunch of aluminum shavings left inside from tooling. I think I might disassemble it and tweak with the internals as there's no gasket dividing the two sides, it's not 100% efficient right now


I also noted I need to clean under my engine cover LOL

Picked up a set of 18" Titan Pro-4x wheels and set of Michelin tires with 60-70% tread life for $450.

This is what they looked like on the previous owners 04 Tahoe z71.

Stripped the rear quarter panel inside, sprayfoamed between the inner and outer skins. Going to build another enclosure in the rear for my 10's.

That sounds like a nice project.

The Yukon XL has a fold-down center seat in the front, I was going to remove it and build a center-console enclosure. But, I sometimes have a truck full of tools and materials, keeping the seat allows me to have two passengers if necessary.

Not going huge with the build, just an enclosure of about 4 1/4 cu ft in the rear quarter. Building from the floor right up to the window line, 10" subs recessed in 1 1/2" and firing into the rear, 4" port forward. Only running 500 watts to the pair of 10's, not going to move a ton of air, so I don't think I have to worry about any port noise.

The JVC head unit I just swapped in for the stock unit sounds just fine, plenty loud (for now). Just going to run the Sub Out to the Lightning Audio 1000.1D. I am going overkill and running 1/0 ga wire to a distribution block, and then 4 ga to the amp. I have a 600 watt power inverter I'm going to run off another leg of the distribution block. Both will be mounted under the rear seats.

I have plenty of room under the seats, even folded down. My kids are gargantuan (son is 15 today, and is 6'2, 350 lbs, daughter is 13, and is 5'11"), so I had to move the rear seats back - made some brackets to move them back 2 1/2", and raised them up about 1/2" in the process. Gave me enough clearance for the amp and inverter. I actually have enough room if I should want to add a 4-channel amp for the doors.

When I actually get everything in and completed, the rear doors, quarter windows and hatch are getting tinted over the factory tint with 20%. I don't want anyone to see anything in the rear, but I do need to be able to see when backing up - otherwise I'd go 5% all the way around.

I did 15% on the 2 rear back windows, and 20% on the rear. No issues when seeing at the rear glass.

Decided since I can't find a DDM tuning HID bulb to match the white that my Auxbeam Led light bars are, i went ahead and bought a set of Auxbeam F-16 9005s and 9006s, if these don't match, I give up, lol
