    Replacement shocks and struts 2001 and 2002 yukon Denali

    We see a lot of folks on this site convert over to aftermarket shocks and it seems like most of them regret it. Naturally the dealer wants a small fortune for this type of job but if you look around at online vendors like Parts Geek, Rock Auto and few others, you will fine all 4 AC Delco...

    Lost

    I had this same feeling with my 2004 Yukon Denali and believe it or not, it was the front hubs locking up. I'd have to punch it to get it going and then it vibrated. On the other hand, a bad universal joint might give you the same behavior. If you have to replace the universals get a seasoned...

    New to 4WD, any info and advice appreciated

    The 6.2 and the old 6.0 engines are great. I had a 2004 with 240k miles on it, ran great, never leaked or used any oil between changes. We now have a 2019 Yukon D with 6.2 and love it. I would make sure that you always use premium gas only, change the oil every 3K-4K miles with full synthetic...

    Rear Shock Options

    Listen to Shania Twain - "Dance with the One that Brung Ya!" Arnotte industries (FL) is great to work with but they sell only wholesale (when you used to sell direct) but you can still buy these nice Magnetic Ride Shocks from Rock Auto and other parts suppliers. We have a 2004 Yukon XL Denali...

    Rear 3 inch lift spaces for 2011 Chev Sub LTZ with Level ride

    Just an update - No problem with the OEM Level ride system - Installed 2" on the front and 2" on the back - Spacers and it's just perfect height and ride. Going any higher requires changing out upper control arms and a bunch of other parts. (Just not worth the expense to go 4-6 inches or...

    Shocks

    Arnotte Industries offers the Auto Ride ACDelco Remanufactured AS-2708 with a lifetime warranty for $300 each. If it has level ride, this is the best ride for me and this is as stock as you can get it. Usually these auto-ride shocks are close to $1,000 from the dealer and I think that the MSRP...

    Rear 3 inch lift spaces for 2011 Chev Sub LTZ with Level ride

    Thanks Dustin - I now see on the forums that a lot of folks have went with passive shock replacements, then didn't like the ride and went back to the OEM Level Ride Shocks. Your response is pretty much what I expected and I thank you very much> I guess that I'll follow that advice of legendary...

    Rear 3 inch lift spaces for 2011 Chev Sub LTZ with Level ride

    I Currently have 2 inch space lift kit on the front of my 2011 Chev Sub LTZ and I'd like to put a simple 3 inch spacer on the rear shocks but most of the listing that I see say that it's not applicable for these trucks with Level Ride Air Shocks (like Mine). Now I'm wonder why exactly and I...

    Just bought a 2012 Tahoe LTZ noticing i`m hearing the air ride pump alot

    Air Ride OEM Shocks are usually about 1K each but Arnotte Industries in FL has been great with reman's and brand new OEMs and they are usually about 350K each but well work it IMO - Jimmy Dean says "Dance with the one that brung ya".

    2004 Yukon - Rumbling at ~50mph - Please help!!

    Indeed they are famous for eating torque converters right at 98K miles. With mine, it seemed to start out be simulating an engine misfire. These trucks are known to go through hubs after 10-100K miles and it feels like the brakes are locking up, hard to get going very fast since the hub...

    On road trip - getting P219A code

    Dave - We have a 2011 Chev Suburban LTZ 5.3 with 137K on it and recently had this same code. My mechanic fixed it be replacing an O2 sensor and due to the number of miles and the fact that it's in beach sand quite a bit, we just replaced all 4 of them. 2 of them upstream, 2 of them downstream...

    Hello, I'm new here and have a couple of questions if you don't mind

    Congrats on being brave enough to replace the stepper motors on the instrument cluster. I had great results with just letting Circuit Medic rebuild mine (shipped it out) and replaced the lamps with blue leds. (more modern appearance). That 6.0 engine is rock solid - Enjoy.

    Fix For Head Unit Receiver causing Parasitic drain?

    On our 2004 Jukon Denali with Bose, we experienced an intermittent drain (draw) overnight. The shop insisted it was the Alternator and battery but I didn't agree since they were tested and were almost brand new. It turns out that there are known issues with the Amplifiers creating a draw...

    Light bar mounting in lower bumper opening

    After doing a lot of research and working with a auto specialty shop, I settle on The Heise HE-DRL22 (22" 40 LED - DRL Series dual row). Its rugged HD bar and it's very bright. (installed by specialty shop professionally). The primary goal on the 2011 Chev Sub LTZ was to see better at night and...

    2023 Yukon XL or Standard?

    Excel XL XL all the way. We can haul materials as well and we can put a full 4x8 sheet of plywood or drywall in the back with the seats folded down. So versatile inconvenient and a great ride

    2014 Yukon 6.2L lifter noise

    This sure sounds like a collapsed Lifter and/or a wiped CAM. With the AFM, these engines (both the 6.2 and the 5.3) really like Full synthetic oil and regular oil changes. When it drops from 8 to 4 cyl mode, with old conventional dirty oil, it's my understanding that they are very susceptible...
