    Charlotte: Chronicles of a $100 Hoe

    The Plan: I am planning to keep track of every penny I spend on this build (hence the 'Chronicle' moniker) and I would really like to get it done and delivered around Christmas time. Interior: Remove entire interior (sunroof left open thru winter, everything ruined and gross) Replace sunroof...

    Charlotte: Chronicles of a $100 Hoe

    Charlotte: Chronicles of a $100.00 Hoe Named Charlotte in honor of the 17 Black Widows I killed changing out the rear brakes. Alrighty then! I am long winded so bear with me while I lay out the plan and try to keep with the plan. The Story: I was working on the 2004 Tahoe I am rebuilding...

    Tips on replacing calipers & flushing brake fluid.

    Agreed! This is the same one I have and what I was referring to above but couldn't remember the name. These things work well, and as mentioned by rocketman and asked by OP. But in my experience if you pressurized these beyond about 5-10 psi they have a potential to make a mess. @Rocket Man...

    Tips on replacing calipers & flushing brake fluid.

    Power pressure bleeder is super cake to use. it is basically a pump up weed sprayer with an attachment to a universal brake fluid reservoir cap. you put fluid in the weed sprayer, attach to master cylinder, pump up the weed sprayer, and crack the bleeders and watch the fluid flow. just dont...

    08 Yukon tire wear/control arms

    I was going to ask about air pressure, bald outside and inside with good tread in the middle usually indicates under inflated tire. Ball joints can muck up your alignment as well as bad bushings on any part of your sprung suspension, but I don't think your sway bar bad bushings would effect...

    Tips on replacing calipers & flushing brake fluid.

    Sorry I just re-read your post. Disregard my ramblings about 2007+ upgrades, the other stuff is still relevant.

    Tips on replacing calipers & flushing brake fluid.

    IMO, you could flush your rears first. Then replace your passenger side front brake line and flush the right front line until clean, attach caliper. Move to left front, replace line, flush line until clean, attach caliper. Bleed right front caliper until no air. Bled left front caliper...

    Backup camera wire route

    Where did you find this? Do you have a link to a 2003 upfitter manual? I looked but I don't see one, might be a phone vs desktop thing. Thanks in advance.

    Swapping auto hvac for manual

    Let me tell you a little about dual zone that some may disagree with me on. Great concept from GM, poor follow through. I only figured out that the heater core suitcase and ducting are different this past Monday... This is one of my messes that I will be doing a build thread on in the next...

    Swapping auto hvac for manual

    And... Let me ask further... BCM programming? Something I have been needing for a few of my Eskys and one Tahoe for a while now but cannot find anybody willing or able to program BCM. You know anyone? Different issue altogether, not hvac related. Stabilitrac BS. And to further explain: I...

    Swapping auto hvac for manual

    Thank you for the response. I honestly responded last night in haste because I was having a rough day. My responding like that extremely rare, again, I apologize. I was not trying to be an ass not was I trying to paint you as ignorant, it just came across as such because of my frustrations...

    Swapping auto hvac for manual

    Alright alright, I am an ass. You caught me. Your original response is forever quoted above so even after your edit I got what your were laying down and don't completely disagree. You have also proven that there is a manual auto hvac unit which I never realized was a thing in the 2003-06...

    Swapping auto hvac for manual

    Okay let me clarify since there seems to be a problem with what I asked and what you read. For starters I want to change my dash mounted digital climate control unit to one that is manual, specifically the kind that has 2 up and down levers for dual zone, specifically for the 2003 to 2006 and...

    Swapping auto hvac for manual

    I will try locate that thread on another forum site and link to it. Dude did it in a truck, IIRC he did it on just a couple hours with all kinds of pics and explanations. I used his posts to rewrire my escalade dash after dash fire and had issues with the digital stuff working like it was...

    2005 Tahoe Daily [Update 06/25/20 - leveled?]

    You got almost as much going on as I do, lol. What head unit did you install? What is the lithium battery on the driver sride cubby hole for?

    Swapping auto hvac for manual

    Probably... But if people can easily enough add digital in place of manual, it's gotta be easier to go the other way round. Wouldn't ya think?

    Swapping auto hvac for manual

    Front windows not working

    I replaced both front window regs yesterday, these work as they should now. I feel like an idiot for not checking to see if the regs were bad from the start. I figured the chances of both regs being bad was slim to none since I have bought literally 25+ trucks and Tahoes in this body style and...

    2007-14 HVAC and Headliners

    Ok the cj3 and cj5 is not correct for 2010+ the others on that list you show pic of are the ones that show Tahoe classic as I mentioned. I am hoping that an owner of a manual hvac tahoe/yukon can chime in on this for verifiable rpo code. And forgive my ignorance, but what is PPV / SSV? Not...

    2007-14 HVAC and Headliners

    Do you happen to know the RPO code for the manual climate control? I can have been looking at rpo codes are trying to figure out what years, but everything up to 09 that I find that says manual hvac also says Tahoe Classic. At 2010 I cannot locate any solid info for that particular RPO code...
