    6l80 fluid temp

    How hard was the install? Looking at doing this on my truck.

    Need help from a 2017-2020 Suburban Z71 owner

    Thanks again everyone! I found some!

    Need help from a 2017-2020 Suburban Z71 owner

    Thanks Tiki. No those don't look anything like the part numbers I've been seeing. Weird.

    Need help from a 2017-2020 Suburban Z71 owner

    That's not the one I'm looking for...BUT I did manage to find a set. Tiki I'm all set, but thank you.

    Need help from a 2017-2020 Suburban Z71 owner

    Does anyone here have a 2017-2020 Suburban Z71 that would be willing to crawl under their truck and get me the part numbers for the OEM tubular side steps? I cannot find them listed online ANYWHERE. I founds two sets at wrecking yards but they want gobs of money for shipping. Anyway if I could...

    Let's see your aftermarket running boards!

    Those are kind of what I am looking for - but definitely not chrome. Thank you anyways I do appreciate that offer!

    Let's see your aftermarket running boards!

    I'm just disappointed and angry. They don't look terrible. I've gotten a lot of compliments on them. But the hoops are in the wrong spots and they are obviously made with subpar materials/methods. For the money, these aren't good. The question now is do I leave it with nothing at all, put...

    1" front, 1" rear lift - what tire size?

    Here's a couple I took earlier this month.

    Let's see your aftermarket running boards!

    Oh yeah I can certainly sand and respray these every summer - but I shouldn't have to. This isn't some crappy square body, I don't feel like having to respray my side steps in 2016 Suburban territory. Most likely, if Rough Country doesn't take them back, they'll be off the truck in the spring...

    1" front, 1" rear lift - what tire size?

    No rubbing whatsoever. No trimming required. They aren't much bigger than stock.

    Let's see your aftermarket running boards!

    Just in case anyone had seen this thread and was considering these Rough Country side steps that myself and CaptainInsaino have tried.... DON'T. After about a month and well under 1000 miles of driving with these on, mine are starting to develop rust spots. I am absolutely outraged. I've...

    Did anyone go with a JEGS transmission?

    What does a rebuild of a 6L80 go for these days? What about labor to remove and replace with something like the Jegs tranny?

    Let's see your aftermarket running boards!

    Couldn’t agree more, looks clean with nothing. I may end up doing the same eventually. Keep us posted if you find decent nerfs, that’s what I wanted to start with but couldn’t find anything besides chinese crap.

    Borla part number

    I was thinking that...but then I thought that a 2016 Suburban is probably already pretty well insulated and dampened. Not sure how much it would help. Truthfully, I'd probably put a stock muffler back on before I ripped it apart to lay down Dynamat.

    Borla part number

    Would that help any? I don't have any experience with the heat wrap stuff. I'd be willing to give it a shot, but it seems like wrapping it wouldn't decrease the resonance.

    Show off your 2015+ leveled Tahoes and Yukons!

    That's a 1.5" front and 1" rear Suspension Maxx with 275/60/20 Goodyears.

    Borla part number

    Well, I got the Borla on. It's pretty tame outside, just the right amount of sound for my taste and has a unique "booming" rumble. Cold starts sounds quite nice. But INSIDE, it's LOUD. I failed to consider that a Suburban vs. a pickup truck is like an echo chamber. This thing is loud inside, it...

    Found a great deal on take off OEM Skid Plates!

    Welp finally got the plates and got them installed today! Very happy with the result! Thanks to the OP for the tip on these.

    G80?

    Apparently one could get a Detroit TrueTrac for the 9.5" 12-bolt... https://eastcoastgearsupply.com/i-23993370-gm-9-5b-semi-float-detroit-truetrac.html Pretty sure the TrueTrac is a good unit...but it's spendy and requires a more involved install. I was hoping for a drop in lunchbox locker...

    G80?

    From a source: "The GM 9.5" 12 bolt axle is a new version of the older GM 9.5" 14-bolt axle and is found under the rear of 2014 and newer GM mid-size trucks and SUVs with the 5.3L V8 engine. It features a large 9.5" diameter ring gear and accepts 33 spline semi-floating axle shafts. While...

    G80?

    That would be cool. One less thing to worry about.

    G80?

    OK so I have the 9.5" 12-bolt. I wonder why the Lock Right wants me to buy the part for the 14 bolt? Same innards as a 14-bolt?

    G80?

    The Lock-Right locker for my application calls for the part that is used in the GM 14 bolt! These 1/2 ton Suburbans have a derivative of the 14-bolt? That would be cool...does anybody know for sure? Is this some non-full floating version of the 14-bolt...

    G80?

    I've had more than a few G80 diffs in my time and never noticed any of them to be "jerky" or obtrusive in any way, shape or form. Guess every truck is different. Has anyone ever added a lunchbox locker to these trucks? Like an Aussie locker or something? Speaking of that, what the hell rear...

    1" front, 1" rear lift - what tire size?

    Thanks, I LOVED the way it looked with no side steps. Unfortunately my kids really do need something to clamber on in with, so I ended up getting those Rough Country steps shown in the second photo. If those start to rust out after a couple Central NY winters, I'll probably just take them right...
