    Coolant Tee Quick Questions

    One of my tees is leaking where the rear metal line connects to it and had already broken on the front like usual so I want to replace both tees. My truck has one black tee and one white tee. Everything I am finding online up until this morning was a white tee from gm. This morning in the big...

    Boost Auto 2020+ style fobs available

    I wish something like this would work with a Viper alarm and remote start. I hate the viper remotes

    How do you level (via lowering) a z71?

    What rear springs would work to level a z71? I was thinking it would simply be by using base springs but will that level it? I would love to go lower but I don't really want to mess with changing much in the front end. I just want to get rid of the ugly rake and have a stock like ride.

    After market alarm system advice

    I got sold a remote kill switch when I bought my first new car back in 2003 that required a small key fob to always be near the vehicle and it needed to be moved before it would energize the relay that was installed in the underwood fuse block. Those were the only parts to the system. Without...

    What size condenser should I buy?

    So I am looking to do an ac rebuild on my truck and am looking for the correct size condenser. The one on my truck measures 30" core only but everything I am finding online shows that a truck with rear a/c controls needs a 35" core. There are 30" core condensers but they all say for trucks...

    Anyone around KC want a free 2005 Z71 roof rack?

    Pulled it off today and don't want to bother shipping it or dealing with that. If no one wants it within a couple weeks I am going to pitch it. Its in good shape and has all the parts. Just needs cleaned up a little and the bars repainted. Also chase the threads on a couple of the bolts...

    Building new custom exhaust

    I had headers and 3" exhaust on my old 5.3 Silverado and I didn't notice any lack of low-end torque. I also went with TSP headers over SE (I HATE the SE headers on my trans am) and a pacesetter off road y pipe (the TSP was out of stock at the time) to a single in and single out Borla xr1...

    Small Leak from Lower Radiator Hose

    So I guess I should update this now that its fixed. New stock replacement (1500 without the oil cooler) AC Delco radiator and also swapped to constant tension worm style clamps and everything appears to be sealed up. There was quite a difference between the transmission cooler line fittings on...

    Small Leak from Lower Radiator Hose

    Denso. Got it because it seemed to have equally good reviews online plus has the factory oil cooler provisions for when I add that later. Didn’t even think to look for an oem 2500 radiator lol

    Small Leak from Lower Radiator Hose

    So a little update but I replaced the lower hose and the clamps today and that seems to have fixed the coolant leak but found the new radiator has a leaking transmission cooler line fitting. It it leaking from where the fitting threads into the radiator so I have an email into the manufacturer...

    Small Leak from Lower Radiator Hose

    So that's interesting you say that. I am also using a Melling pump and the only lines I didn't replace were going to the the t fittings at the firewall since they had been replaced a couple years ago. Those small fittings leaked as well and I had to add worm clamps to those a well. After I...

    Small Leak from Lower Radiator Hose

    I think next weekend I'm gonna drain the coolant and pull the hose off. We used a mirror on a telescoping handle to be able to see it actually coming out of the hose. I originally thought it was where the end met the core but the person helping me could see it coming out of the hose itself...

    Small Leak from Lower Radiator Hose

    So I replaced the entire cooling system a couple months ago because of a leaky water pump and high mileage. Used new continental hoses and a Denso brand stock replacement radiator. Earlier this week I walked out from work and noticed a couple puddles under the core support. After checking it...

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

    That's actually a good question but I don't know. What brand did you use instead?

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

    Thats what I was hoping you’d say. My truck has a big leak someplace and they replaced this valve with a schrader valve. I am wondering if there’s something wrong with the new valve though because it’s the only place with any of the leak detection dye on it but that could come from filling it.

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

    Which valve is the one that commonly leaks? From a quick google search I am assuming the valve closer to the passenger side fender?

    6 speed Auto conversion

    Yeah the price is a huge shocker. I am hoping as more people figure out the electronics side of the transmission, the controllers will start to come down in price. I agree with him on everything except the 60e part. Before I spent any money on a 60e, I would swap in an 80e instead. The...

    2 2 1/4" Borla Mufflers

    It'll hurt flow some but in my uneducated opinion I doubt you would ever notice a performance difference doing it.

    6 speed Auto conversion

    This company offers a GMT800 swap kit as well. They are gaining popularity in the trailblazer ss community for 6L80 swaps. They seem to offer good results in that community but they are expensive...

    6 speed Auto conversion

    The swap can be done. If I remember correctly, the mount is not much different from a 4l80e mount (going off fuzzy memory). I know it has been adapted to the the autotrac transfer case using a factory adapter as well. Controlling it is a challenge. When I took the Holley EFI training course a...

    2001 Tahoe/18" rims and tires on my 2001 Tahoe 4x4

    If you are putting on OEM or OEM replica 18" wheels they will fit fine from a wheel standpoint. Also, if you run a 265/65/18 tire everything will be exactly the same height as you have now so the truck wouldn't have any idea. Speedometer and 4wd will all function just as they do now. Plus...

    aftermarket throttlebody

    I would look into just having your stock one ported but even then there isn't a noticeable gain from a bigger throttle body until the intake has been replaced. Swap to a TBSS style intake manifold and port the stock throttle body, then get a real tune instead of canned and you will notice a...

    Was it possible to get a Tahoe with a sunroof without rear dvd?

    Thanks! Looks like the same light as the rear area has. That'll be easy to find.

    No worries. I am not in a huge hurry for this mod yet. Just doin some research right now.

    Short Tube headers....whatcha got?

    Headers in my experience will leak much easier than factory manifolds will because of the thinner materials used. There also really isn't a gain worth the effort swapping from manifolds to shorties. Texas Speed has about the cheapest set of longtubes I would suggest running but they are a...
