    Good choices for 2001 Yukon 5.3L waterpump?

    I did the AC Delco one as well when I was doing the swap for my 6.0L. Peace of mind for genuine parts on something like that. I went with the one off the HD 2500, only about $140 right now at RA. https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=11524521&cc=1424214&pt=2208&jsn=1

    Engine swap '04 Tahoe 5.3 to 6.0

    Excellent information that should be put into an easy to find place - I think this came up during my motor swap, too, and took some research to track down.

    Upper Control Arm recommendations?

    I have read some poor reports of the Mevotechs.

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Yeah... no, that kinda stuff will go on the Z, not the Hoe. ;)

    Clunks when turning and on uneven ground

    I'm gonna correct this, as you've been typing MOVETECH and it doesn't come up in searching the forum as I had been doing. When looking for reviews on MEVOTECH stuff. Maybe this will bring some people here to this thread if they search MEVOTECH, I found one about their control arms/ball joints...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Yeah, I told The Wife - this next grand is just "the beginning". She just got a new RAV4, so she's being magnanimous. lol

    Troubleshooting a problematic cruise control?

    Well that sounds very much like my problem! Except that my taillights were in for at minimum 6 or maybe 8 years before this problem developed, with cruise control working fine all that time. Hmmmm... the plot thickens.

    Troubleshooting a problematic cruise control?

    So you think additional drain from headlight wattage could be affecting things, even though these do not usually affect cruise from parking/bumper light changes? I guess I can see that. So adding a simple resistor might be my fix... hmm. Should be a simple thing to test - when the weather...

    Troubleshooting a problematic cruise control?

    2004 Tahoe LT here. I have a problem where my cruise control turns off when my headlights come on. Or... maybe when my parking lights come on with or without the headlights. I'm thinking headlights. If I am driving and have my cruise set, when the ambient light decreases to the point my...

    How to Install and Wire Up Halo Headlights

    Man, what a great writeup! Thanks a ton! This looks like a lot of work to me to get these headlights working properly, but they do look cooler in practice than I thought they would... Just out of curiousity, would you might putting up some more pics, maybe from a little more distance and in...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    I didn't do anything TO my truck today, but I did do something FOR my truck... just purchased HP Tuners MPVI2+ Standard Package Tuner w/2 credits and a Tech 2 clone scanning tool from chinacardiags.com. Nothing like being iced in at home/quarantined with the virus and deciding to drop a grand...

    Rock Sliders

    I can't tell you how long mine are, sorry. Too wet and nasty and cold to get out and measure - and I'm stuck home sick.

    Headlight wattage question

    You mean like these? https://smile.amazon.com/335-1119PXAS2-Black-Headlight-Projector-Assembly/dp/B005XRQO9Q/ref=sr_1_2?crid=18ITHIN4D76YW&keywords=Depo+Tahoe+headlight&qid=1643818994&sprefix=depo+tahoe+headlight%2Caps%2C109&sr=8-2 I bought those (so Amazon tells me) in 2017 - they work fine...

    Chrome Wheels Blistering

    Yup, that's exactly what it is. Don't buy them. Mine started that after about 5-6 years, they got pretty bad, so I replaced 'em with a new set.

    [SOLVED] Fast blinking after Turn Signal LED bulb swap

    I got the hyperflash from the LED DRLs - and I fixed that aspect with the flasher module. Maybe because these are an LED setup fo DRLs and turns, not just DRLs - it's the whole housing with LEDs for both. The cruise issue did not happen when I put the rears in - that was like 2010. Didn't lose...

    [SOLVED] Fast blinking after Turn Signal LED bulb swap

    So weirdly... I had to use a new relay box to solve a hyperflash issue after putting in new DRLs - I used this one: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B082V2FNGS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 BUT... I have no cruise control ONLY when my headlights are on. During the day, it...

    Service tire monitor

    Been driving mine with TPMS warning for years, literally. Sometimes the orange light is on the dash in addition to the stupid information center warning, sometimes it's not. I also get the "Service Stability" warning, too. Oh well. Years.

    Help me prepare for my motor swap.

    Yeah it got relocated once years ago with my stereo upgrades. Now it doesn't seem to do anything, I don't think. Doesn't light up or anything like it used to.

    Help me prepare for my motor swap.

    Ahhh sadly, the trip didn't. Cooling fans quit literally ON THE WAY OUT OF TOWN for our NM trip. Messed with fuses and such for a while, after 2 hours gave up and ended up renting a 2021 Tahoe for the trip. Another $1800 down the drain. Since, I've fixed my cooling fans - it was 2 out of 3...

    4 Piston Big Brake Upgrade from 2019-20

    I've got this caliper here... I'm not gonna have time or inclination to pull my wheel off anytime soon to measure, but eyeballing, it looks fine. Who's next?

    Out with the Old and in with the New....well rebuilt

    I got my 6.0 from the same guy. Mine isn't a "built" version, it's a straight up stock 6.0. When I got it, there were sensors installed, looked like old ones (naturally), when we pulled them out to replace them, my mechanic said he shined a light down inside and he was really concerned, it...

    Got my Hoe cleaned up the other day...

    Well, my baby broke down on me as we were tying to leave town. Spent a couple hours working on her trying to get my cooling fans working with no luck, then my A/C compressor starting binding up too, so I left her at home. We rented a Tahoe to take on this 3000 mile trip, cost me a freaking...

    Got my Hoe cleaned up the other day...

    So I paid someone to professionally get it as nice as could be before I went on my 2 trips. She needs some work - a few dings, a crease in a fender, etc. But overall, it looked purty - for a day. lol Took her out for 1300 miles on the new 6.0 and rebuilt trans, she did fine. Lotta body...
