    Transmission flush.. checklist!

    so you take the clip off and some type of end piece which will allow a 3/8 tube to slide right on in and you can hold it with a clamp?

    Transmission flush.. checklist!

    Thats how I did mine roughly 50k miles ago. I'm about to change it again within the year. Don't you have to put some piece on the trans cooler that is attached to the clear tube so it doesnt fly all over the place? I didnt use the right size and got a mess out of it....plan to do better next...

    New owner of an '08 Yukon Denali w/ audio questions

    You can put a video source onto the back screen possibly but there wont be any audio without the front connecting to the back. You will need a video out from whatever unit controls the sound to allow sound to the back (if video will even work). If you want to control audio/video seperately...

    Replaced the bose sub with a 8" rockville

    The bose amp has a seperate connection for the sub from the other speakers. You should return that rockville setup since you paying for an enclosure you cant use. Then look for a sub with high sensitivity where the little power bose provides may do some work. Or get a replacement amp...

    Custom 12” enclosure for 07-15 Tahoe Yukon Escalade

    I think you should put this in the for sale section if you havent done so already. I'm surprised this isn't gone yet. People have different tastes in subs but a leather wrapped stealth looking box should be everyone taste. I ventured into custom enclosures and was quoted more with much less...

    Which Aftermarket radio harness do you all recommend?

    I used the PAC and as good as it is, I would get the Maestro if I could go through process again. If you plan to keep this truck for any descent time (3+ years) and you do your own maintenance, the maestro doesnt hurt. You may pay a little more up front than a PAC but the abilities/options pay...

    Android Auto head unit with BT and SWC

    Bluetooth and SWC are the easiest options every aftermarket HU has that will properly function. I wont say my pioneer has been flawless but the additional abilities it provides, I would never go back to stock unless I was looking for a "look". I do love the online support from other...

    Custom 12” enclosure for 07-15 Tahoe Yukon Escalade

    I dont think Rockford sux and I'm sure their higher levels like yours competes with the best. I have had subs/speakers like Dynaudio, Helix, old school Adire Audio that sounded better than my big retail store brand Kicker, Alpine, Rockford. I still liked those speakers (especially the Alpine...

    Speaker problems

    It can be many possibilities. If you sit in one spot and they just randomly turn off, we can confirm its not the wiring. I would think they either make contact or they dont. That brings us to the actual head unit, speakers and the amp. The easiest/most affordable way to test/replace are...

    Custom 12” enclosure for 07-15 Tahoe Yukon Escalade

    A great enclosure is worth switching sub and circles are the most common for future projects. Very nice box. I would grab if I didnt have a bench. Although I didnt consider a Rockford a 'quality' sub :).

    8" WOOFERS in doors?

    Its setup right, I'm just a cranker. I have blown a set roughly once a year but I play my music at full blast 80% of my driving. I already have a 12" in the trunk and had some amazing mids in the doors (80 hz crossover) but ventured into a cheaper brand (kicker) and didnt see the same mid bass...

    8" WOOFERS in doors?

    Just measured the BOSE grille on the a pillar and its over 4" inches wide. I think a 3.5" 2 way will fit in there with no problem. How about that with the 6.75" sub up front?

    8" WOOFERS in doors?

    I thought that was the benefit of sound deadening? I had 8" Dynaudio 3 way in a old maxima and didnt have crazy rattle due to good deadening but at the same time, I'm used to some rattle. But I understand your concern. I was thinking of those Kicker subs that are 6.75". They handle up to...

    8" WOOFERS in doors?

    Yea i was looking at those too. I seen they only go up to .5 Khz frequency and my tweets would only do 2500+ so I think I'm going to go a different route. Didnt want to complicate system with a 3 way at this point. I actually have the 6.5" coax installed and they are ok but was thinking of...

    8" WOOFERS in doors?

    Thanks that sounds easier and probably can reach higher frequencies than 8". I'll look those up.

    8" WOOFERS in doors?

    I am curious how hard it would be to install 8" speakers in the front doors. I had this setup on an older Nissan Maxima and it required some cutting but the Tahoe is a bigger door and that OEM speaker bracket takes up some space. Anyone ever install an 8" in stock location without any custom work?

    Custom Built Console Sub Box Question

    There is a guy here who built and was selling a box that fit in there for a 10" Kicker L7. I think you should mimic the dimensions of the stock subwoofer box where you can make it fit a bigger speaker. I would do a quick search on here to find that guy for dimensions. He helped me in the past...

    First Oil Change?

    Especially with such a short interval. I would be more worried about fluids that have to stay in the car for 30+k miles like power steering, transmission, differential, coolant, etc. Oil literally has the shortest interval out of all fluids in the car. Unless you race, the average person wont...

    First Oil Change?

    I use Walmart Mobil 5w30 with the blue label for higher mileage synthetic. Been using it for almost 3 years on this truck and no oil leaks since 120k miles. I use AC Delco oil filter since that is what came with truck I believe, also purchased from walmart. I tried using a different filter...

    Transmission Fluid Change Denali XL

    I have the 6 speed version that comes in the 2011 Tahoe (6l80e). I was thinking I should be trying to find a 6l90 if it will fit or try to swap certain parts? Or would I be better just beefing up mine? Those were the 2 options I think if/when mine goes. Get a used 6l90 if it will fit and...
