    Getting spare parts - front differential, transfer case and rear end

    I have had a Silverado with a 6.0L, I like 6.2L more. At what mileage does either front or rear diff fail? What about the transfer case?

    Getting spare parts - front differential, transfer case and rear end

    No, they are all AWD. I thought all GMC Yukon with the Denali package was AWD by default.

    Found a guy with a parts car, he got front diff for $250, transfer case for $300, rear end for $300. The donor vehicle is 2007 Denali with 143K miles. I have two Yukons. 2007 GMC Yukon Denali and 2013 GMC Yukon Denali XL, both with almost 200K miles. I wnat to keep both of them going...

    Grinding noise in 1st gear - 2007 Denali

    Transmission appears to work fine but it's grinding when slowing down or taking off. The noise goes away above 10mph. Seems like it's the AWD component that's failing? It cannot coast, something is strongly rubbing and it slows down. 2007 Denali with 200K miles

    Hard pull to the left when braking - means what?

    Is it hard to change the hoses, how do they mount onto the metal brake line? I haven't noticed when I did the calipers.

    Rockauto part number for flywheel?

    what does "$6h" mean? I am not 100% sure it's the flex plate that's damaged, could very well be the starter. Because the problem started after the starter swap.

    off-road and highway tires?

    2013 Yukon Denali XL Want a better tire which does not get the vehicle stuck on a rain saturated lawn. What I got makes the vehicle stuck real easy. It's mostly for highway/city driving but do not want to get stuck on wet lawns and dig deep into them while spinning the tires, trying to get...

    Mobile mechanic / small shop in Northern Virginia?

    Either a mobile mechanic or a small independent shop with reasonable rates. In Northern Virginia. My 2013 needs AC work. The 2007 needs flywheel/etc. work. Two old cars which always need attention.

    Aftermarket large gas gauge?

    I am frustrated with the dollar coin sized gas gauge, too small and lacking granularity. Is there an aftermarket fuel level gauge I can mount somewhere on the dash which will be larger, easier to read and more granular? That plus the stupid gas tank design which reads empty + light comes on...

    Replace 31 gallon tank with 39 gallon tank from 2500 series Suburban?

    So the good thing is, it has a very generous reserve.

    Did the brakes

    2007 Yukon Denali was making grinding noise so took it to a shop for diagnosis, they said rotors, brakes, etc. Quoted me $1300 to do it. This seemed excessive so decided to DIY. Ended up replacing 3/4 brake pads sets, 2 calipers, 2 rotors. About $300 in parts in Advance Auto. It certainly...

    Rockauto part number for flywheel?

    I see. I had a small indepedent shop quote me $600 for the flywheel swap. Is that in the ballpark or what? I am not sure if it included the part itself. Even worth doing on this 2007 with 200K miles? It sometimes doesn't start on the 1st try and the starter spins until it gets in the right...

    Starter spins, does not engage flywheel

    I have an identical problem. It will start after about 2 attempts. Do I replace the flywheel? The start is new.

    Replace 31 gallon tank with 39 gallon tank from 2500 series Suburban?

    Thanks for the definitive reply. Maybe I should leave it as is. All the viable solutions are not cost-effective, short of getting a 2500 series Suburban (which comes with the 6.0L versus 6.2L). The remaining question is, how do I caliberate the gauge gauge to correctly read empty when it...

    2007 Yukon. Lost 1st and reverse gears in transmission. Replacement options?

    What fluid do I put in the transfer case?

    Rockauto part number for flywheel?

    But is it a transmission issue? Is the flywheel the correct part? How much work is it to replace it?

    Hard pull to the left when braking - means what?

    Makes sense. I will just replace the caliper and go from there.

    Hard pull to the left when braking - means what?

    Right front pads were down to the metal but the LEFT front look like they have 70% of life left. Clearly uneven wear, which means what? The left front caliper is not engaging? Ths in conjunction with the fact that during braking, the vehicle is pulled hard to the LEFT. I am thinking about...
