    4L60E Fluid

    do you feel any slippage when you very first start driving, or does the symptom start up after a few mins? And how many times has it done this? Are you still and have you been regularly using this vehicle with the identified symptoms?

    4L60E Fluid

    Is that with the engine running? @01ssreda4 i haven't burned up any trannies. At what point would you expect to see the signs? Fluid should smell like shit and have contaminants visible when wiped onto white tissue, right? I mean if it's steadily slipping up & down the throttle... couple times...

    Front end squeaking/chirping

    That or the output bearings. You could start by getting underneath with the front tires lifted up off the ground and put a stethoscope or stethoscope-like alternative at the ends of the axle housing and listen while the tires are spinning.

    4L60E Fluid

    when does it slip? Under any load or at high speed like 3rd gear and up? What does the TF fluid look like? Red & transparent, still? Does it smell burned at all? Any evidence of coolant/antifreeze contamination? Make sure it's not running low... It should be at the 'MAX' level with engine...

    Front Diff Actuator not coming out?

    There are vids on YouTube; run a search and watch somebody else get her done. Maybe it will help, maybe it won't but I don't know what else to tell you. Position the pipe wrench so that you can get a cheater pipe over it for extra leverage. You could also heat it up with a propane torch. Don't...

    Ticking from a/c compressor area

    You can take a windex type of squirt bottle with water and give the belt 2 or 3 shots. If the noise stops, then the belt is junk.. And if ticking persists a bearing is at fault. Don't forget that there are 2 belts so I would shimmy on my back under the front end & hit the AC belt only with...

    you installed this pin 'as-is' without any grinding? and this is supposed to be the longest production pin?

    Corvette Servo Questions

    Fantastic. Appreciate your testimonial, bub. Very solid info I'm also encouraged by your going back & swapping in the relevant pin so that's an added bonus from which I have drawn my conclusions. And all the major systems on your rig are the originals?

    Corvette Servo Questions

    I called around when I was in the market for an upgraded servo and let an old transmission tech talk me out of it. I wanted to swap bc @Justinj360 the shift points are really weak & relaxed like you had said about the truck you are/were driving. The 3-4 shift on light throttle really stretches...

    Front Diff Actuator not coming out?

    Its screws in there so grab it with the channel locks or pipe wrench and back it out counter clockwise.

    Wheel hop, service stability in the DIC when turning left

    oh boy. Rubber on the pavement is not a skid mark and the master tech of a GM dealership is referencing the encoder motor which a BW full-time is not even equipped with. what a clusterf*ck All, if not most of the info you walked away with is null & void since 'GM Master Tech' is 100% shooting...

    Wheel hop, service stability in the DIC when turning left

    Does the skidding happen only when turning left? @swathdiver He lives close enough, I don't see why you couldn't send him your tech2 for diagnosis, pending the shipping charges or a small returnable deposit. Could help determine the depth of issue. Personally, I would narrow the problem down...

    4WD vs AWD

    http://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/full-time-4wd-opinions.104267/ general motors makes a decent driveline. you just have to drain and refill both differentials and transfer case lube with quality product and then inspect it for leaks every few months. skim through the other posting that I...

    Full time 4wd opinions

    A lot of vehicles have AWD platform. You won't have any more problems than the next PT-4wd consumer so I wouldn't worry about it. People get into trouble when they aren't keeping up with maintenance and inspecting the drivetrain components on a timely schedule. I crawl underneath our cars and...

    01 Yukon G80 GT4 rear axle failure? Spider damage

    are you going to replace gears only? or the whole assembly?

    Front diff driver axle seal

    The main thing on seals is the housing needs to be like-new condition. If the outer bore is polished up, free of any schaffing then the seal is installed with grease on both inner & outer circumferences. I never heard of RTV being used until I saw the DIY web vids; highly doubt a pro would do...

    Input please.. Front end work

    That is absolutely correct; you will need to consult with any business in regard to supplying your own replacement parts while the company is basically contracted for the labor. Some will work with you, others have a strict policy against it. i just know from experience I've had my ass handed to...

    Input please.. Front end work

    @Tahoe5509327 I have to agree that the estimate you were given is not at all competitive with industry-wide pricing. On-par with dealer service and over-priced OEM replacement parts, catering to the uninformed individuals and corporate fleets. unless this were a trusted business that you are...

    1999 tahoe service 4wd light

    you can test that switch bank with a voltage meter before you replace it. I know it doesn't help at the moment, but there are ways to go about diagnosing some problems before spending money/ removing & replacing/ so forth. each 1 of the switches has a different voltage that should read within...
