    2011 6" Tahoe

    Doesn't BDS have a replace no matter what policy? I recall the other guy that was having problems also had the BDS (need to search to confirm). If the tie rod is not bent, what is the issue? Is the tie rod OEM or BDS? Are the steering components stock or in a different position (geometry)?

    HID in DRL?

    Those LEDs look good Sumo. OP, HIDs will melt the housing.

    what muffler or mufflers to use????

    Geez had a headache just trying to read that... In any case, the following are my comments: - What is the piping diameter of the headers? - 3-inch diameter piping is too large for the 5.3L. That is causing turbulent flow, reducing exhaust velocity/scavaging, and reducing power. - Use the...

    Trying to level any suggestions?

    Go with any level kit that suits you and use Airlift 1000 air bags in the rear coils.

    2011 6" Tahoe

    Seems like you are the 2nd Tahoe with a 6" lift to have issues. What is the brand of suspension lift, do you take it offroad, what size/type of tires are you running, how many miles with the lift? Are the tie rods bent? Does the kit extend the steering? If those parts are truly shot, they...

    Maintenance....

    ^How many miles on your truck, ambient temperatures, and what brand of gas were you using?

    Maintenance....

    Follow the recommended service intervals in your manual. IMO just run good gas (Chevron, Shell, etc.) with cleaners. Those are top tier formulations with standards. Are those injection cleaners graded or reviewed by third parties?

    2010 Chevy Tahoe Mods_The Wrap Up

    Well your questions have been asked many times... Although at least you searched. - CAI: Not really a performance difference between brands. IMO get a closed box type. - Throttle body spacer: Paper weight. - Plugs and wires: AC Delco at time of required change. - Exhaust: Just for...

    another one bites the dust!

    Wow that is crazy that the output shaft snapped on basically stock power! Was the output shaft OEM? No turbo build anymore :(?

    Found NNBS tahoe with Body lift

    For offroading body lifts do not provide any additional clearance except by increased tire diameter (ok and the truck body), increased center of gravity, reduced overall stiffness, and reduced shear strength (body to frame connection). Other are aesthetics like more frame showing, larger gaps...

    diaoblo sport tuner

    I still do not see how key count method can positively identify modified ECMs. My wife drives all over for kid activities and errands, and those key counts must be off the charts :laughing1:. IMO the owners/tuners in your case should have elevated the issue above the dealers and onto...

    EBC Brake Rotors?

    I have them. I replaced the OEM with EBC rotors and pads at the same time. I go camping a lot with heavy loads on curvey mountain passes. The OE set faded (and warped) during that type of use and the EBC do not. Have about 45k on them already with no complaints.

    Found NNBS tahoe with Body lift

    Looks good in the pic but need to see the rear and sides closer. Hopefully the hitch was relocated properly.

    Hollow rattle from front end?

    How many miles? What kind of bumps causes the sounds. Mine has always made a squish/rattle sound over tall and sharp speed bumps. In any case, check the IFS bushings to see if they are deteriorated or cracked. Then at least check the top of the struts to make sure the connections are...

    After installing Spindles....

    I would say yes, but you should post in the dropped section.

    Have you heard of DuraBurb?

    Yeah I wish the diesel was an OEM option on the Tahoe. Duraburb been around a while and I like their retrofits. Maybe when the 5.3L goes...

    Max tire size w/CCM 2.5/1 kit

    As stated above, TPS measures pressure. I have mine set at 50 psi and had to get the TPS recalibrated. Yes a spacer would solve the rub issue on the UCA and sway bar. But I will be looking at new wheels when these tires wear out.

    Max tire size w/CCM 2.5/1 kit

    I have the same level kit as InTruck (CCM 2.5"F/1"R).

    another one bites the dust!

    Geez that sucks! Didn't the sprag go out last time? Yeah with a stage 5 tranny upgrade, it should be able to handle a lot of power. I wanted to do the Monster tranny upgrade but now I will also consider the 4l80e. Keep us updated regarding the issue. Good luck! As a side note, does the...

    Max tire size w/CCM 2.5/1 kit

    Not much room to run larger tires without modifications. I run 285/65/18s on stock wheels and had to trim 2 inches off the front bottom valence. With that small increase in tire width I rub the UCA and swaybar at full lock so keep this in mind with aftermarket wheels (offset and backspace)...

    General questions for a lifted z71

    You can fit 33s with just keys and spacers. Go to the 2006- Section of this forum and they will be able to provide more details. Are you sure that white Tahoe above has 33s? Those look like 35s. This section is for 2007+ which are entirely different.
