    Installed the a rockauto cabin filter retrofit kit. Took an acetylene torch and heated up a pocket knife held by channel locks to cut through the plastic cover like BUTTA. whole operation took like 30 min.

    How many miles is “too many” when buying used?

    Bought my 09 at 134k for $10k in March 2022. This is when used car prices were crazy...I don't think I would change anything tbh. Bought from private seller and did a bunch of maintenance to bring it back to newish. Runs great, reliable, comfortable, tows well. Does everything I need it to...

    Strut rebuild help

    I wish Bilsten had a ready to install set with Springs installed. Would have preferred those over my KYBs I ended up with. The horror stories of spring compressors failing scared me.

    Towing - Air Lift Bags or Shocks

    Personal experience - I love the air lift 1000 air springs. Used them recently to tow a firebird and it was a stock like ride and completely level. You'll likely have a heavier tongue weight, granted, but the install is so easy and cheap it seems like a no brainer. Keep in mind there could be a...

    upgrade air intake tube

    100% this. I have no need for an exhaust now. Replaced the rear resonator with a replacement SLP section and nice tips, and I'm happy. Now, the front section has ~140k and needs to be replaced eventually, but that's another issue entirely. I'll put a stock front section on.

    07/08 vs 09/14 exhaust question

    How was the fit/finish for the 51578? I have ~140k on my original y pipe and I think its about time to put it out to pasture, but havent found a great replacement option yet.

    My Experience so far with 2007 Yukon. Idle issues after cam swap, P0300, P0420, tuning.

    Adding in some BTR stage 2 came experience WITH valvespring change. I went Blackbear from day one and they have been nothing short of amazing. Every tweak I make, I send them ONE log and get back an awesome tune. I actually wanted a little lope with the stage 2 cam and got it, but not with any...

    What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Finally installed my new Moog front diff mounts, will have to see if this fixes the clunking! Next on the list is trans mount, and then all the various control arms in the rear. Then sell the F@$%#&* thing if I can't get it to stop clunking.

    EXHAUST SETUP!

    WH Why don't you like the choppy idle? Thought that was peak 'Murica. I got the BTR stage 2 and really like it...although I have a lowly 5.3. The added power is noticeable over 3000 but I'd love to have some more low end torque. I suppose the only way to fix that issue is boost or displacement.

    6l80 flares, thunks cold upshifts

    @NickTransmissions approx cost for a rebuild as mentioned earlier in this thread? Also, know any reputable shops in the tri-state NY-NJ-CT area? I know my early 09 will need it at SOME point in its life, and since I already did a DOD delete and cam upgrade i'm probably sticking with this thing...

    What are your must-do things on new-to-you gmt900?

    Didn't think this would be such a big deal but do yourself a favor and upgrade/replace your seat foam. Mine was beat and lopsided. Didn't realize how much it affected my enjoyment of the truck till I replaced mine! Of course all the usual fluids, plugs, wires, etc, but this one surprised me.

    Anyone Flip Cars Here?

    It was so slow. Those motors were choked with the OEM smog equipment. Even if it was light I still got beat by a ratty 90s civic with a fart can.

    Anyone Flip Cars Here?

    Has anybody sold on Bringatrailer? I sold this RX-7 on there. Not going to tell you the purchase price but suffice to say I bought it from my neighbor as a non-runner. The process was nerve wracking but a ton of fun once the bidding started to get serious. I was actually on an anniversary date...

    Recommendations for in-tank pump replacement

    Update: installed the recommended pump and now my gas gauge reads about half of what it should with the supplied float. Is there any way i can put a resistor in line to get a proper reading?

    Not that I am planning on tearing the front of the motor apart TODAY, but this is the kind of invaluable information that I come here for. Thanks @iamdub I will definitely be referencing this post when I do my AFM delete and ported 799s next year.

    2013 AFM Failure -> Delete Kit advice

    Im honestly a little surprised on how few active people there are on this forum for how many of these trucks exist. However, of the people that are active most are very skilled and knowledgeable. I guess your evaluation of these trucks as appliances is correct. Meanwhile the BMW forums ive been...

    Experience with shorty headers?

    I know I know, they wont make as much power. But considering how easy they are to install and that most connect to the factory system, its got me interested. Any experience with various brands? Gibson, dougs, flowmaster and few others seem to have a good product.

    Need help

    Direct experience here. I totaled my dad’s 1979 BMW 528i with a LS1/t56 combo. Thought i was hot shit getting on the highway and moneyshifted straight into a guardrail. To be fair, that was already a hairy car but I was wayyy too confident.
