    Alternator charging but making lots of noise

    Yep, it's time for a new one or a good rebuild. New ones of higher output are, in my opinion, the way to go. Make sure your output cables are in good condition.

    Woven copper wire for grounding

    The copper braids are cheap and easy to replace. You will need to measure the length needed, also easy.

    Still all over the road after rebuild and alignment

    I think one of the previous commenters may be right, you're running pretty large, heavy tires and wheels. One thing many folks don't add into the calculation is the actual weight of the tires and wheels, not just the overall diameter for speedometer accuracy. So, you actually installed a new...

    Still all over the road after rebuild and alignment

    The first upper A-arm, the right, arrived today, the rest are due Wednesday. That will be the left upper A-arm and the idler and pitman arms.

    Replacing my diy exhaust with Gibson

    Please take some photos when your new system arrives, and maybe some of the installation too. I had a 2002 Blazer ZR2 that I installed a cat back full stainless Gibson on, made that V6 sound like a Jag six.

    Still all over the road after rebuild and alignment

    Interesting thread, always love good information. Because we have low traffic in the OBS forums, I'm reviving this thread. I'm starting on the front suspension replacement, because it wonders a bit. The Yukon has 130k miles on OEM parts. I'm going with all Moog balljoints/parts.

    Polyurethane leaf spring bushings or not?

    Dusting off old memories, seems like there's a company that makes non-squeaking poly bushings that have graphite impregnation in the poly. Then again, that may be old, out of date info.

    Whats a yukon gt?

    I saw a Tahoe Sport sitting on a dealer's lot when it was new, early to mid 1990s. I think it had a manual transmission, too. The color was red over silver.

    Who has 22's?

    Wow, those are going to change your effective axle ratio. Did you calculate how much?

    Fuel Tank replacement question

    Where did you source the new tank? I don't need one, as far as I know, but eventually I may.

    Anyone know what wheels these are?

    I can't see the image, either. The OP only posted 2 times, then fled the scene.

    Location suggestions for SiriusXM Sat radio receiver

    Right now, while I'm still working on the installation, it looks like the best location for the Sir/XM receiver will be below the HVAC controls where a CD player lives now. That will be removed, the new bezel came with a blank off plate so the cubby hole won't be there any more. It should fit...

    Help installing Nbs Dic into obs Yukon

    The 2004 Ford F-350 that I custom ordered came without the overhead console display unit, so I sourced one from the same model year Excursion. Seems Ford, and likely GM, used one wiring harness for the overhead consoles, no matter which options you have. My particular model, with cloth seats I...

    This makes me want a 2door.

    I like the red interior, it really sets off the exterior color. Only real men can drive a vehicle with a red interior. Way back when I was in high school, red interiors were commonly found in muscle cars, 427 Fords, 396 Chevies, and Corvettes. I've never understood the desire for black...

    Have you been able to see or download the option list? That can tell you a lot about your find.

    My 99 2 Door Tahoe

    That's a nice looking Tahoe, black is as they say, "tre elegant" when it's washed and polished. My father owned a number of black Chryslers back in the early and mid 1950's, all looked great when cleaned up. What are your plans now that you've owned it a while?

    95-99 GM truck Double Din install (TheDetaillSS)

    To paraphrase the late Hunter Thompson, "things just get interestinger and interestinger", as I proceed on into this install. As most of you may know, I bought the Yukon last summer from a seller in Utah. While I asked questions about condition, I never asked about the audio system. It turns...

    Location suggestions for SiriusXM Sat radio receiver

    I'm looking for suggestions about the installation of a SiriusXM SXV300v1 tuner, that is, where to instal it so it's out of the way. The antenna has a pretty long cable, so that's no problem. Anyone?

    95-99 GM truck Double Din install (TheDetaillSS)

    I will be demanding DetailsSS return the money I send them for their bezel kit. It's obvious that the person that is alleged to be running a business has abandoned it and moved on. He owes me over $400.00 for work NOT performed. I hate dealing with this sort of crap, we do what we must.

    Bought Tahoe with TBs Cranked, How bad?

    Bilsteins have both oil and gas inside. There's a floating piston separating the gas from the oil, usually gas below and oil above the floating piston. The piston attached to the shaft has the valves in it. Unlike conventional shocks, Bilsteins add to your spring rate and without the factory...

    How about some love for the 2 door? Post pics of your's!

    I like the Z71 decal, thinking putting one on my Yukon since it has that option installed.

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

    Great Falls is a wonderful place for young airman assigned to Malmstrom AFB, in my opinion of course. I could relate numerous taies, of course but won't, none would be family safe.

    LED flasher

    The turn signal flasher and the emergency flashers are different, even if both are controlled from the same module. On my F-350, I have a LED bulb (both brake and tail lights in one) on the right side and the OEM bulbs on the left. The turn signal module flashes the right turn signal very fast...

    Reprogrammed two remotes for my OBD1 1995.

    It should, the component that is affected is the onboard receiver of the signal from your FOB. I've not read about any differences between the tail gate and barn door models. Keep in mind that this only works on 1995 and earlier models.
