    2002 denali front diff failure/vibration

    Update, the other shop rebalanced the drive shafts, they ended up removing weights and adding some others. Seems the first shop didn't do a good job. Either way it's a whole lot better. When I did the big brake upgrade (2023 pads/rotors) I got a newer set of wheels. The tires are new but are...

    2002 denali front diff failure/vibration

Ive pulled the front and rear drive shafts, going to take them to a different shop tomorrow (drive line specific). I believe the last place I had...

    2002 denali front diff failure/vibration

    thanks for all the replies guys, the fluid is definitely glittery, so I ordered a reman diff from powertrain products. With 170k on the original, it's possible it's at its end. I know when I first got the Yukon it had 150k on it, diff fluid was brown glittery, so I figure it hadn't ever been...

    2002 denali front diff failure/vibration

    Forgot to add, the vibration is while rolling, neutral, or in any gear at the higher speed. It kinda drones also, kinda humm, humm, humm. Hope this helps someone decipher this and anyone else in the future

    GM Gurus, I have recently been working to solve a vibration in my 2002 Yukon Denali. Heads up this has been a fun 1. SO, 6 months or so ago I replaced the transmission with a reman from Performabuilt with a FTP torque convertor 2000stall. (just adding this to the history, you will see why soon.)...

    Mine is a 2002 Denali with the G80. It's AWD but has the NP149 transfer case vs the newer Bosch. Don't know it has the works the same with the silicone coupler vs discs like the Bosch as far as power delivery

    2002 fuel trims loss of power after 2 hours

    Thanks for the suggestions guys, I replace the pump yesterday. Found that who ever did the wiring last time only twisted the wires together and heat shrinker them, no solder or crimps or anything.

    2002 fuel trims loss of power after 2 hours

    Interesting, just weird that there are no DTCs showing up. I'll dig in and see how the vac lines and check the intake manifold, it does look a little oily on the passenger side. Thanks

    2002 Tahoe front end whine

    Hey Guys, not trying to thread hijack but I have a 2002 Denali, similar whine from the front end. Suspect the front diff, it had wonderful glitterness in the fluid when I changed it (new to me). If I read this correctly, can I find a 4x4 with the same gear ratio front diff and add my AWD portion...

    Make the Tahoe New Again

    I would have to agree with all the other guys, alignment and OEM parts. When I got my Yukon, the first thing I did is the entire front end, tie rods, control arms +ball joints, intermediate steering shaft, the works. After all the new parts then the alignment. As far as bumpity bumps,I had an...

    Thanks for the info and old thread to reference, since I want to keep my spare, I will just keep stopping every 200 miles. I guess its goes along with my New Years goal to "slow down and enjoy the little things"

    I Know, I Know... Not another P0300 Question

    I worked on a friend's Tahoe from West Virginia a few times. His dad drove it to the coal mine everyday and never washed it. It looked very similar to this underneath. Ran like a champ but was hell to work on. Holy frame and all. Every time I had it in my shop the floor looked like the inside of...

    New guy from NC

    I’ve been soaking up the knowledge on the forum, replaced all the front end components, air ride compressor+shocks, all new fluids throughout, and Saturday night just did stainless hard lines and braided lines. Thanks everyone for sharing tips and tricks. I hope to add to the knowledge base.
