    Center console question

    Hi Stephen, There are also a few keyed power sockets in the connection/junction box near the brake pedal, I am using one of those for a backup camera. I posted that here, including a picture and diagram of that box. Ron

    Center console question

    I had two also, one in the storage area (under the lid) and one int the back. I hooked mine up to a keyed power wire that you can find under the carpet, near the roll over sensor. (on the middle of the "tranny tunnel" I used that source also for a CB radio. Ron PS: black goes to sheet...

    Anyone get their PPV or SSV carpeted?

    That is actually an idea, and if i want it fancier, I can always have the edges finished, like it was a doormat or so. Ron

    Center console question

    Hi Jay, yeah the install is actually pretty forward. Your ppv probably has the basic radio and no video consoles, and if rear seat air, it's in the ceiling? Then more than likely you don't have the wiring harness in the dash to hook that console up. Some used ones come with audio/video, air...

    Anyone get their PPV or SSV carpeted?

    Me neither. I loved it that I can just clean it out, mud, snow/ice/salt .... aaand my sister dropping chocolate on the floor on the passenger side. I hate it in the cargo, area, stuff keeps sliding around like it was in a skateboard park. Ron

    Engine hours

    Mine was a little over 40 (43 I believe) when I got it, at just under 69000. (a 2013 SSV) Ron

    2013 Tahoe SSV drive train

    Hi James, I don't see that code on my rpo-list., but it seems to act differently than "open" in 4LO, They have it in Jeeps too, positrac is like "limited slip" right? Ron

    2013 Tahoe SSV drive train

    Hi Wes, Ah yeah.. I planned on doing that. Reason why I wonder is also, when I switch to 4-LO, traction control(and stabilitrak) are switched off according to the DIC. Traction control being switched off makes sense when it is not needed, for example when the rear is locked. Ron

    2013 Tahoe SSV drive train

    Hello all, I was wondering, with the 2013 SSV Tahoe, did those ever come with lockers(in the differentials) My SSV has 2WD/Auto/4HI/4LO on that 'selector'. 2WD is obvious, auto turns on/off 4WD automatically I assume, 4HI seems to work the same as my Jeep, 4LO works almost like your trying...

    Bolt on trailer hitch receiver?

    Ok as in pulling the weight, maybe. It doesn't have the required chain hookups, I don't see anything "trailer wiring" .. and I don't see anything attaching it to the frame, nor into the harness.. so "professionally made" ... I don't think so. It might work, but doesn't look like it...

    20113 SSV 4wd, 4LO, stuck/frozen?

    That works on my CJ, but in that one first gear is not synchronized and the dana300 is all gears. I assume that when, on the Tahoe, you put the transmission in neutral, the transfer case can shift, without the 'bind' of the tranny. btw: I have packed snow/ice around the house, when you start...

    20113 SSV 4wd, 4LO, stuck/frozen?

    Hi James, It worked when I put the car in Neutral (transmission in neutral). Which makes sense. (because of "Jeep knowledge", limited though. The transfer case and transmission, in my 79 CJ (dana300 + T18 combo) 'bind' when engaged in 4LO, and it is almost impossible to shift the transfer...

    20113 SSV 4wd, 4LO, stuck/frozen?

    Ok... so I am one of these people youtube videos are made for... It's even easier, put transmission in neutral, and move the 2WD/Auto/HI/LO switch (you can actually hear it switch/shift)

    20113 SSV 4wd, 4LO, stuck/frozen?

    Hello all, So I drove home from TX, yesterday, and had to use 4wd at times (weather was great for that on I40), and it seemed to work just fine switching back and forth between 4wd and 2wd. When I arrived at home I had about 1-2 feet of snow in my driveways (they are fairly long), but in 4LO...

    2007 retired Police Tahoe AFM disaster

    I was just watching a Tahoe video, from kbb, where it's called Multi displacement Technology ... I guess it has all kinds of names (the also called it AFM in the same video). Ron

    My Original window sticker for my 2007 Retired Police Tahoe.

    wow... but then again, when I was shopping for a Tahoe, I noticed the prices of them being pretty high.. I am in NM though, I saw that in CO and TX the prices are quite a bit lower, and also, they seem more common there. Ron

    2007 retired Police Tahoe AFM disaster

    Oh one can actually reset that? now you mention it, when I fill up the tank, the "fuel range" says something like just over 400 miles, I have a 26 gallon tank (I think). To be real honest, I don't pay a who; lot of attention to it, just checked it a few times while driving. Ron

    2007 retired Police Tahoe AFM disaster

    Ah, well, I don't know how well it works, or in my case, IF it even works. Whatever it is I do with it, it always runs 15MPG. road trip to TX, 15mpg, picking up a 3,500lbs trailer in Abq, 15mpg, trip around here, 15mpg. kind funny though, the DIC "V8/V4 economy" goes back and forth...

    Jump Seat to Center Console upgrade

    There is no such thing as an "extension" to the harness that is already in the days. I spent a lot of time looking into this, the only way to make that work is to take the complete harness out of the dash, and replace it with the harness that is for a Tahoe etc. that comes with those...

    2013 SSV car alarm issue?

    I dunno, I heard a car alarm... and when I approached my car it wouldn't unlock. So I used the key .. and of course.. weirdness. In the days after that... nothing wrong it seems.. like nothing ever happened. It happened at a Chick-file-A parking lot .... great chicken btw.... Ron
