    Tried to upgrade rotors; caliper bracket doesn't fit

    Went ahead and rode my dirt bike out to Napa Auto Parts to pick up some OEM rotors and calipers. Now gotta do the passenger side and will be done with it. Will probably upgrade brakes when I return from Buenos Aires.

    Tried to upgrade rotors; caliper bracket doesn't fit

    I don’t have new brackets. And after seeing this piston seal, I don’t want to put this wheel back on until I’ve replaced this caliper. This is my only vehicle at my current location so I’m just going to go with local OEM parts for now so I can get this rig back on the road. Anything else would...

    Tried to upgrade rotors; caliper bracket doesn't fit

    Looks like they MIGHT fit with some washer spacers, just makes me uncomfortable how tight it is.. although I am able to rotate the rotor with my hand, it feels like the rotor is coming into contact with the caliper bracket. Also, look at the piston seal on the lower piston in this pic. Looks...

    Tried to upgrade rotors; caliper bracket doesn't fit

    So I waited all day for it to cool down and then tried to swap my warped rotors on my K2xx with some Raybestos Element3 rotors that I had in the shelf for my GMT800. They fit the K2xx, but the stock caliper bracket is too small. Can I get a larger caliper bracket or do I have to get new...

    How many miles are too many for you when you buy used?

    A couple of weeks ago I paid $8k for a 2015 Tahoe LTZ with 251k miles. Structurally good, was a fleet vehicle.

    Had 5% tints all around installed today along with clear UV film on the windshield and sunroof. My wife is highly sensitive to sunlight.

    Brought a new (to me) Burb home

    Love it! FWIW I got bought a 2015 Tahoe a couple of weeks ago and installed Morimoto headlights last weekend. Couldn’t be happier. Took about two weeks to talk myself into it due to the price, but really happy that I did.

    Jon Caveman's 2015 Tahoe LTZ

    When I bought my k2xx a few weeks ago, the center console lid was contorted. A common issue with high mileage Tahoes. So I replaced it with an inexpensive one from eBay. I'm fine with the result; the factory original was real leather-the replacement is vinyl. But it looks good enough. And to...

    Jon Caveman's 2015 Tahoe LTZ

    Lastly, steering wheel has a lot of wear, leaving crud on my hands, which really bothers me. So I ordered a custom made carbon fiber and leather, flat bottom fighter steering wheel with performance gauges on top. Pictured in red stitching but they're making mine in black with white stitching...

    Jon Caveman's 2015 Tahoe LTZ

    Dropped my K2xx at the shop on Monday to have them go through it. Nothing surprising at all; broken motor mount, exhaust manifold leak, play in control arms, needs struts and ball joints. Overall I was happy with the diagnosis. ALSO–what a coincidence! This leveling kit I was already looking at...

    2015 GMC Yukon XL SLT Apple Carplay

    I wouldn't drive without Apple CarPlay. Lightyears ahead of any other UI I've used. I just installed an Android tablet with CarPlay in my Tahoe.

    K2xx horn wiring?

    Nice, thanks for the help. I can see the horns (barely), but I can't get to them and I can't see or get to the wiring. I took the bumper/grille off but that's it. Seems like I'd have to take a lot more apart to properly get at 'em. But I'll check out the wiring diagram on the GM upfitter guide...

    Wow that's awesome! Is that aftermarket? If so, where'd you get it??

    K2xx horn wiring?

    Looks like this video might have what I'm looking for. It's an older model, but the theory is the same. I should be able to tap into a fuse or relay in the fuse box, right? I'm gonna go look at fuse box and see what I can find.

    K2xx horn wiring?

    Has anyone replaced their horn in a k2xx? Don't worry, not interested in obnoxious air horns lol. But I have a 4 note Cadillac horn sitting on my shelf that better fits my.... personality. ;) Just wondering the best way to wire it into the horn circuit. I found the horns behind the washer...

    Jon Caveman's 2015 Tahoe LTZ

    I'm in Delaware right now working on my new Tahoe lol. I'll be in NYC on Monday. Just got another apartment, this time in Bloomfield, NJ. But I still have an apartment in Buenos Aires. I'm going back down there on 07/08.

    What did you do to your 2015-2020 K2XX Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Started the mods on my "new to me" 2015 Tahoe LTZ (build thread here). Swapped out the two front stock seats with two from a low mileage 2019 Yukon Denali. Replaced the worn console lid with an aftermarket one, and swapped the stock head unit with an Android tablet unit from AUCarAuto.

    Seeking honest mechanic in northeast

    Last week I bought a high mileage 2015 Tahoe LTZ. I posted a build thread about it here. I want to take it to a shop and have them go through it top to bottom. I'm assuming we're going to have a good amount of work to do on it. The shop that I was going to take it to near me in Montclair, NJ...

    Jon Caveman's 2015 Tahoe LTZ

    Anzo also makes an LED headlight that's pretty dope. I'm having trouble deciding which I like better. I think I like the DRL of the Morimoto better, but the projector lights of the Anzo better. What do you guys think? Morimoto Anzo

    Jon Caveman's 2015 Tahoe LTZ

    Yep! Still have the 2002 Tahoe with a list of mods already purchased.. but I moved out of that house and got an apartment in Buenos Aires, Argentina, so I haven't been able to install any of them. :(
