    headlight question

    Does anyone know what type of headlights BowTieFreak is running? I emailed him a while back but I didn't get a response. I trust his opinion, and I don't want to accidentally buy a piece of junk part if at all avoidable. . .

    New tires needed, open to options

    My advise is to stay away from tires made with Korean rubber, which tends to be soft and wear out quickly. Have you looked into the Kelly TSR's? Great tire and the price is very reasonable. I have a set of Mastercraft A/T2's and the tread wear on them is amazing. Mastercraft's very cheap, and...

    My Tahoe might be out for the count

    KBB is crap for specialty/ unique vehicles. . . . wait long enough and watch your 2D become a classic car everyone wishes that had. Back on topic: Sorry to hear about your Tahoe, it sure was a gorgeous truck. I'm surprised that such a tin can of a car caused THAT much damage to your Tahoe...

    Tahoe Faulty Water pump?

    That seems like there might be something else going on. My original water pump crapped out over last summer and I had to replace it with an AC Delco one. My Tahoe had around 97k on the clock when the original one crapped out. I did not do the repair myself, and if memory serves me correctly, I...

    Full Tune up for the HOE

    Alright, in all seriousness, this is what I would suggest you do: New Plugs (Can't go wrong with Bosch) with wire separators New Wires (Bigger Diameter than Stock) New Cap/ Rotor By doing this your NOT going to pull the front wheels off the ground, but you will notice a slight increase...

    Full Tune up for the HOE

    I was running an MDS on another vehicle, and it really didn't make any difference in power. I know some people swear by them, but I wasn't all that impressed. I would rather see you put on a few more bumper stickers, you know you get 10hp per sticker, lol. Just my .02 cents

    Goodyear Duratrac- The Great Equalizer

    I was reading on another site, I have no idea if its true, but Kelly Tire is made by Goodyear. Alot of folks were saying if your in the market for the Goodyear DuraTrac, you should also consider a cheaper version of essentially the same tire. I cut and pasted both tires so you could see a...

    Goodyear Duratrac- The Great Equalizer

    I have a set of Mastercraft AT2's that were on the truck when I got it. They have held up extremely well and with 35k on them, I still have 65% on the rears and 35% on the front tires. The Goodyear DuraTrac's have very good reviews from the Jeep crowd, but I was interested on how they hold...

    Goodyear Duratrac- The Great Equalizer

    So I've been doing a ton of tire research. Everyone likes the look of a mud tire, but the lifespan of a mud tire on pavement is a problem for most. So Goodyear came out with the Duratrac, which seems like a nice in-between; a A/T tire with the looks of a mud tire. Has anyone here purchased...

    2 door tahoe/blazer/yukon if you got one show it off

    Why doesn't anyone here start their own forum exclusively for the two door crowd. I know its been discussed, and someone tired but it didn't take, but I've always felt like we needed a place to call HOME.

    how to make your AC blow harder and cooler.

    Alright I put everything back together and I didn't notice a huge different in performance. It doesn't blow any harder but the air coming out of the vents smells nicer, on account that I sprayed some Pumpkin scented Fabreeze onto the coil. Now I'm driving around and my rig smells like pumpkin...

    how to make your AC blow harder and cooler.

    This is a great write-up. I just disassembled my system and removed a ton of crap. Squirting the water out of the hose up there a weird feeling, but you were correct and it all drained out. I took it one step further thou. I used a tooth brush and get the crud out, and then used my shop vac and...

    What did you do to your OBS GMT400 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    I have a buddy that swears by used tires. He was telling me his truck has 20 inch rims, and by using used tires he is only spending like $25-35 per tire, and most of the tires have 60% plus life left in them. Its an interesting idea when money is tight. . .

    Need help finding a thread

    Does anyone here have any idea where the thread went that gave a step-by-step instruction on how to disassemble the interior assembly to clean out the HVAC system of debris and crud? I've been noticing a slight hum or noise from my vents when I run the fan, so I figured I should probably...

    goodyear gatorback

    I've used Gatorback on two on my GM's (Sierra and Tahoe) and I had decent results on my Sierra (5.0L), but after 3-4 months and 1k miles the Gatorback began to sequel on the Tahoe (5.7L). I had the second belt checked and it seemed a bit loose, maybe I stretched it out or got a bad one, I have...
