    05 Tahoe and 03 Yukon swap

    To answer your question, yes you can pull them both still connected. Though, if I'm pulling out the top, I always separate because it's just easier. Some will leave them together though. I just prefer separating to make things easier to maneuver and remove. I'd agree though, make sure your...

    2001 Burban, almost no oil pressure even after replacing the oil pump

    You may also look into the pick up tube girdle. It keeps the pick up tube from moving in the oil pump by bolting down the other side of the tube. If it's not that though, I think you're looking at major work here. My first thought after reading was also bearing have gone bad. That much...

    ABS Light With No Codes

    I'm curious to know how you think the ABS light can be turned on by an O2 code? Doesn't sound right to me. Yes, I'd still get the O2 fixed, but they're mutually exclusive systems. A sensor monitoring the exhaust gasses is not going to make an anti-lock brake light come on. What OP is...

    Yep, definitely have them do it now. Or it'll cost you more later on

    Exhaust Options

    Most cat back systems don't have a converter with them. They start behind the cat. At least any of the ones I've looked up for our vehicles, or any other vehicle. I wasn't sure if anyone was running an ORY with a different exhaust system to keep things quiet. I'll probably have to just...

    Exhaust Options

    I'm planning and starting to get parts together for a spring top end build on my 01 Denali. I've decided to go with 5.3 long tubes and then replace the existing magnaflow catback with a 5.3 cat back. The whole exhaust system can be replaced much cheaper than just buying 6.0 specific long...

    Window switch LED conversion, now no power for switch lights

    Yeah I know the polarity of them, just turns out some of these were presoldered incorrectly. The first few were fine and I didn't check each one

    Window switch LED conversion, now no power for switch lights

    Turns out the cheap LEDs I bought were a mix and match of the resistor being wired to the wrong side. Got them all wired up right and now they work. Lesson learned, don't buy cheap stuff lol.

    Window switch LED conversion, now no power for switch lights

    I was changing all my switches over to LED per ScottyBoy's thread. I did the driver master switch last and went to hook it up no LEDs came on. Double checked that I soldered everything, looked good. Took a test light, with interior lights on, and no light between the brown wire and black...

    You were in the exact junk yard I was in looking for the same fans. Just beat me to it by a couple weeks it looks like lol.

    Need advice on which brand of ball joints to buy.

    I've never had an issue with Moog Problem Solver line on any vehicles.

    DJM Sway Bar Link and LCA Relocation Kit Doesn't Fit

    So it finally came down to, they're just going to let me return the kit. The only thing they did was come back with some pictures of their own stuff and then said "you have a lot of aftermarket parts on here and another brand of shock, with that I am not sure about fitment. We have not tested...

    2003 Yukon/Newbie on the form

    Lots of vehicles have that resonator in order to keep the intake air quiet. Your average vehicle owner doesn't like additional noise, like a sucking noise on acceleration or in some cases a buffering sound.

    Replacement motor questions but hopefully fixable

    Reading into this a bit, what made you think you had spun bearings, and then went to a misfire? Is there a knocking sound? Not to sound rude, but you seem to be all over the place with this. Spun bearings, ignition issue, fuel issue.............. Before you go throwing parts at it, do you...

    DJM Sway Bar Link and LCA Relocation Kit Doesn't Fit

    ks03, I did try that (didn't grab pictures of it). It's the same thing as the driver side. It'll either be jammed up against the shock or be just a bit off. Which looks like if the piece was welded more on center, it would bolt right up. I haven't heard back from DJM yet though.

    DJM Sway Bar Link and LCA Relocation Kit Doesn't Fit

    So here is the sway bar bolted up to the pass side sway bar. There are two pics of the driver side end link flipped both ways. One way it will bolt up, but pushes the sway bar into the shock. Flipped, the sway bar won't bolt up to either the driver or pass side end link. Which leads me back...

    DJM Sway Bar Link and LCA Relocation Kit Doesn't Fit

    OK, after getting back under there, flipping the driver side won't matter since I think the passenger side link is still welded wrong. The passenger side link will still be in the same position, unless I put serious tension on the sway bar, which will end up snapping an end link. The passenger...

    DJM Sway Bar Link and LCA Relocation Kit Doesn't Fit

    I don't have a shot of the driver side currently, but that's how I was trying to bolt it up, was on the right side of the driver side link, as you're looking at it. Just as their picture showed. I may try it the way the other picture you attached shows, flipping the link and seeing if that...

    DJM Sway Bar Link and LCA Relocation Kit Doesn't Fit

    OK, slow to follow up on this. I talked to DJM and they basically said the link looks fine. So, I tried reinstalling. Lifted the rear of the vehicle, axle sitting at ride height. Shifted the bar over to the new mounting spot on the driver side. Installed the driver side link and it shoved...

    Another P0300 Thread

    Just wanted to update, in case anyone else finds this in a search someday. About 2 weeks and several hundred miles later, the light still hasn't come back on. Cam/Crank Relearn did fix it. Though it lets me know I have a timing chain replacement coming up in my future at some point.

    Another P0300 Thread

    I ran the cam/crank relearn. I noticed the misfire counter doesn't count up as fast anymore, but still counting them. At almost 200k miles, I'd almost assume some may be normal. So far no light on, but I haven't been driving a whole lot. I'll report back if the code does come back.

    Another P0300 Thread

    No other codes, other than the first time I checked codes, there was a stored P0440. That hasn't come back since though, which has been a few weeks now. I'll try a relearn tomorrow, see if that helps.

    the screen shots from the graph is live, I can monitor them as they happen. Different cylinders count more misfires each drive cycle, as you can see. Each screen shot is a completely different drive cycle.

    Another P0300 Thread

    It's an 01 Yukon Denali. No power loss or noticeable issues when driving. The light comes on at different times. It's come on at first start up and also in the middle of a drive, not any hard accels. The misfire monitors start counting as soon as it's started, warm or cold. I haven't done...

    Another P0300 Thread

    Unknown age of those. I picked this up last Oct, haven't changed either of them since everything seems to be reading within specs on both sensors. I sprayed around the intake and vacuum lines with brake cleaner, no fluctuation of RPMs at all.
