    CV axles

    do not drive the truck with the axel removed. it wont happen on the fist block of driving, but if you get on the hwy the front wheel will come off. i know to many ppl who tried this to limp home when they busted one. the damage is substantial. the end of the axel holds the hub together with out...

    Best way to support engine

    if you can get your hands on a engine hoist that would be the easy safe way. lift one side of the engine up at a time and swap the mount. floor jack and a 2x6 across the oil pan should work too tho. ive done the fwd 2x6 across the oil and trans pan to change the mounts as well. most of the...

    P0300

    well thats just messed up.... has this truck ever sat un used for a while? mice chewing wires, or just messed up wiring could cause this. worst case the pcm went bad, or maybe its plugs got water in it and corroded the pins in the plug.

    03 Tahoe E-Brake All the Way to Floor

    take the rear rotors off, open up the e brakes via the star wheel till they are just fitting inside the rotor, aka get em good end snug. of course make sure all the hardware is still in place being they were just replaced.

    Thinking of picking up a travel trailer... How can I bolster the tow capacity to afford myself a bigger trailer?

    tranny will hate you lol even if you add a cooler to it. id go and take the big one for a test drive, or one close to its weight and see how it feels. back when i had my 03 gmc 2500 hd pick up id tow my 4,000 plus lb boat all the time. and you'd hardly know it was back there. my tahoe now...

    Tru-Cool 40k Cost Me 3k

    hose clamps suck and should never be used on a trans line, ever. you need to figure out the thread pitch and size on them barbs in the cooler replace them with AN fittings.

    2001 Tahoe Interior 300k miles

    damn shes been used good. look on ebay for used foam and seat covers. auto recyclers sell em when in real good shape. way cheaper then new stuff. the flaking dash parts, theres a spray paint called "SEM", it's made for car interior parts and works great. comes in many factory colors that are...

    Stalling then ok 10 min later

    did it set the p0300? or it flash show as pending? might be as simple as your way over due for a tune up. plugs and wires. or maybe the crank sensor, when bad they dont always set a code. if the tack ever dropped to zero before it stalls out, crank sensor for sure. but thats what it does...

    RTV (silicone) posioned O2 sensor

    that heater code is related to the o2 not warming up on its own. so being you just did a engine swap maybe you got a blown fuse, bad ground. o2 wire harness got pinched. something out of place. or that o2 sensor just decided to check out.

    Underpowered Possible vacuum leak

    your ac system is low. when low the compressor comes on and off. sounds like a idler chirp. pull the belt, hand spin everything. if you dont see a belt diagram under the hood some where, take a pic of the belt on the truck. nothing like trying to figure out that puzzle lol

    "Soft" brake pedal when engine running

    i can tell you this. if the master drained at any time, you likely got air in the abs pump.
