    Front coil spring

    A few weeks ago, I was driving on the freeway, going about 75 mph ( cruising north from Fort Lauderdale).... A late model Escalade was 'cruising' in the center lane.... The front end was bouncing up and down, on the smooth road.... I wonder what caused that???

    If spiders are in your house, they are attracted to tiny ants. ( no ants, fewer spiders ) We have a pest control every 3 months. Outside perimeter & inside. Works great !!

    Front coil spring

    Do what I did..... 1st, I found the original sticker - part # attached to my coil springs... Go to your GM dealer with your VIN# and they can show what you should have as stock..... and maybe find a spring for your model, but with the standard coil, and compare that to the coils you have to...

    Front coil spring

    Someone can correct me, but some factory 'auto ride' , 'air adjust', manual auto level ( Nivomats / Sachs) shocks require a softer spring, since the shocks add SUPPORT to the suspension, so those coil springs are softer ) ... Check your RPO codes )

    Front coil spring

    The bounce is usually due to a weak shock absorber .. (?) Maybe the shocks / springs are not matched ?

    Blackbear tune... I'd like to hear from personal experience to set up

    Not sorry.... ( Reeses?)....... All the coaching is GREAT!! My '05 has had a good life..... always garaged, clean, and 175,000..... Runs great..... I just like the idea to "make it great again"....... Ha.... Just to improve the tune will be nice.

    Blackbear tune... I'd like to hear from personal experience to set up

    3 basic tune options...... Since my '05 is all stock, It appears the " Scan Cable Tune" would be fine ... ?? I don't see the need & cost for the 'Auto Cal' version... I think? I'm an easy driver....

    Blackbear tune... I'd like to hear from personal experience to set up

    Thanks..... All sounds perfect as long as the downloading the apps, and data download has no glitches. I am not sending them my PCM. I will have them send me the Blackbear PCM. I can't park my truck and wait for the mail. If I read correctly, from them, I can use their 'tool' to load my...

    Blackbear has options... Scan cable.. how does it work? What are the connections? I have a Windows 10 laptop. ( any issues ? ) Crank relearn. Is it as easy as they say? ( I can't afford a delay, since my '05 Yukon is my daily driver. I don't care if I do their deposits...... I plan to...

    The one you are linking is sort of an "over-kill" from the others I saw.....

    Do these come off easy?

    There's a few choices out there..... most have 5 sounds (inc a siren ).... but legally, I want to avoid those.... I just saw one for less than $30 on Amazon..... But you get what you pay for...

    Do these come off easy?

    I see the 'select able' remote for ALL the EMS sounds to use , and has a remote multi-buttons.... I just want the one low note. ( It's not a 'horn' sound, it's more like an electronic note) Maybe I have no choice.....

    Do these come off easy?

    A good excuse to show off your ride...... ( nice ! ) I'm searching for a horn sound that has a loud/low note..... But not the Cop option 'selector buttons'..( $$$). Looking for a stand-alone horn sound.... Our stock horns .... no one cares when they hear it...

    While you are moving, the heat is blown away.... When I get home ( inside garage), I pop open the hood on the hotter days. Sometimes a portable fan.
