    question on MPG before and after AFM delete

    Had to have our AFM lifters replaced around 150-160K. Now have almost 200K on it. Need to see if my friend at the dealership can do the delete instead of having to get a tune since my wife drives it just to take the kids to school 95% of the time. Other 5% is pulling our 24 foot enclosed trailer.

    AC help

    How would I know if I just need to add the 3 oz of pag for sure? Is there a way I can check the accuumulator to see if it has oil? Just trying to figure this all out before I put on the compressor, so I know how much and if I need to add more oil or what before closing the system up

    OK I might do that. Yeah I had to replace the condenser after I put a whole through it last week. It drained all the freon out of course and some oil came out since it was all over the lower bumper. Then 2 days later the clutch on the AC compressor went out after I refilled the freon, but...

    Tru-Cool Max 40

    I had a question and figured it would be more responses here. I live in Kansas and it gets to around 0 degrees sometimes in the winter and below that with the wind chill. I was going to get a 40K cooler and didn't know if I should actually get the bypass or not. I read that the bypass will...

    Towing Question

    ah ok. I read on the bypass for the 40 that is passes the cooler til it warms to 180 degrees.....it would probably never reach that in the winter so it will always bypass the cooler

    Towing Question

    I found one with a bypass for only 30 bucks more, so I might just go with it. Can't be that hard to put the bypass in and snug it tight somewhere. Vermtown - Did you go with the TruCool 40K like everyone else?

    Towing Question

    It gets to the teens or lower on some days. What would be the bad to not get a bypass? We got a 24 footer and with about an hour of driving, trans temp got as high as 225 on a 90 degree day....so we definitly need a cooler. Ours didn't come with a stock cooler, so do I just get the one plug...

    Towing Question

    We are looking at a 20 and a 24 foot enclosed trailer. Our yukon has the 3.73 gears in it and I would be adding the trailer braking system and a transmission cooler. I have a few questions though... Will our yukon be able to pull the weight of the trailer, plus about 4-6 atvs inside? We live...

    Upgrade OEM Transmission Cooler

    Yeah, Its Kansas lol. We went from almost 98 and 90% humidity to a cold front come through and came down to like 80 with almost no humidity. We have crazy ass weather here. So I error on the side of caution with winter. It will be in the garage, but I know the wife will only drive it to take...

    Upgrade OEM Transmission Cooler

    I don't have a factory cooler and live in Kansas. We have temp from below 0 in the winter to around 100 in the summer. I was going to get the tru-cool 40 but didn't know if I needed the bypass? The wife drives it and in the winter she will drive maybe 2 miles to take the kids to school.

    Looking at downgrading

    Yea I would need 4wd/awd. I might just have to stick to our yukon for now because I can't find anything that is under what we owe on our yukon. I have a friend at a dealership that is going to check for me, but he is kind of the last hope at least for now

    Looking at downgrading

    What is the difference between the 4l60 and 4l80? Don't really care about the navi and I don't know about the AWD system of the denali's. How much difference MPG would it be with the 6.0 and AWD? I know my father in law's 99 silverado 2500 only got like 8 when I was driving it and he had...

    Looking at downgrading

    I would love a 2500, but there is literally 2 for sale by me and one is by owner with 240K and still wants 7500. Other is a 09 at a dealer with 201K for 14000

    Looking at downgrading

    Does the 4L80 just come with the 6.0? For the 6.0, wouldn't I have to get a Denali....don't think I have seen it in any of the suburbans I have looked at. We only tow that big of a trailer 2 or 3 times a year. Other than that it is a small 6x8

    Looking at downgrading

    Yeah my wife likes it, but I am over it sadly. It has a few issues (no oil cooler, I think the rear main is leaking, NO room in the back) We are going to Florida for vacation and with us and all the kids we would have to buy one of the topper things to put our luggage in. So I got her sold on...

    Looking at downgrading

    We still owe on the yukon, so a straight trade is out of the question. They have the LS listed as a LT, but with cloth interior and only a sunroof I am guessing its a LS. Our yukon now has about 185K on it, so we would actually be going back in years but down on mileage also. Since my wife...

    Looking at downgrading

    We have a 07 Yukon right now, but we have already had to replace the AFM lifters and at this point I just kind of over it. So we are looking to trade it in on a hopefully 04-06 suburban. I looked at the thinking of buying thread and didn't know if anyone had any other useful information? We...
