    Those with LS. Do You Regret Not Getting LT or Premier?

    Amazon and eBay had them back in June 2018. I bought a blacked out set for my ‘Burb for $55 Can’t find the same ones from same seller. But there are plenty of similar options for cheaper lol

    Those with LS. Do You Regret Not Getting LT or Premier?

    I had a 2015 LS for 4yrs. We absolutely loved it. phenomenal rig We picked up a LT because the price was right. We needed the Suburban room that the Tahoe couldn't provide. of the 4yrs we owned it, there were only 3 things I wished the LS had that I gained with my LT. 1. the 7" touchscreen...

    Throttle Re-Map 2wd vs Auto/4wd?

    Bought my 2017 in April 2018. It was noticeably peppier and shifted better than the 2015 Tahoe I traded in. After about 1 month I switched it from Auto to 2wd. Summertime. No need for the extra wear/tear. It’s not my daily driver (wife’s) but I’ve noticed all Summer and into Winter that I...

    Can you lift or level 2015 Yukon XL 2WD

    curious why you'd even bother lifting for 33" tires? I have a bone stock 4x4 Burb and I'm running 265/70R18 (33") right now. Zero rubbing. These were the rim/tires off my 2015 Tahoe 4x2 that I kept when I traded up to the Suburban I deliberately kept the same aspect width (265) as stock so I...

    Block Heater help

    I didn’t see K05 on the RPO sheet. Will do some digging tomorrow in the light and physically look. But after some googling, I discovered the PCM will potentially throw a CEL that occurs if you modify the cord so the heater works when I WANT vice 0F like CHEVY WANTS. Not sure I want to drop...

    Block Heater help

    Bringing a 2001 'Burb back from the Dead

    anyone done the 13" brake upgrade? Appears the parts I bought are for a 2005+ Silvy. From what I've been reading they bolt right in and replace the factory 12" setup. Guess I'll find out tomorrow. Dumb luck they work. I'd been researching parts and thought all 99-07's were the same. Just...

    Bringing a 2001 'Burb back from the Dead

    hard and soft brake lines are all replaced. Went to bleed the brakes and I can't get a single bleeder to come loose. Both rear ones snapped flush with the caliper. Fronts are just tiny rusted remnants I spent around 1 hr trying to weld build-up on the bleeder. I was able to weld a nut on...

    Who paid Onstar or is it worth it Or 4g service Is it worth it.

    don't let the app update, and don't talk to ONSTAR. as of 4/1/2018 ONSTAR updated their terms of service and canex all the old plans...unless you pay monthly. I had a 2015 Tahoe that was working perfectly, zero issues. When I traded her in for the 2017 Suburban, I triggered ONSTAR to update...

    Who paid Onstar or is it worth it Or 4g service Is it worth it.

    I feel the "service" provided is crap compared to the cost. I tested the 4G and wifi during my free 1 month trial. It was useless. My phone as a hotspot provides a stronger signal...and it's quicker too boot. For $15 a month, they give you the ability to unlock your car remotely from the...

    Bringing a 2001 'Burb back from the Dead

    Got the stainless steel brake lines installed. What a fight. Did 2 things my own way. 1. Wasnt going to take rad out, so I routed the front right up and over (see pics) 2. I ended up fishing the rear main line along the frame rail like it's supposed to be. Someone in the past had run a NICU...

    Bringing a 2001 'Burb back from the Dead

    was fiddling with her today and had the AC running...and the compressor locked up. yay! Thought it had caught on fire at first. Guess sitting for a bit and the high miles was too much. Think I'm going to re-attempt brake lines tomorrow while the storm rolls in. Weather is supposed to be a...

    Bringing a 2001 'Burb back from the Dead

    I am beyond angry at GM/Chevy at the moment. What moron decided to put the ABS module by the t-case? Every single brake line on this rig is rotted out. Due to the lovely ABS module location, they were all equally exposed to salt and are all broken. EVERY SINGLE ONE, and at the same stinking...

    Bringing a 2001 'Burb back from the Dead

    Making some progress. Interior is clean and smells good now. The carpets have permanent stains from 17yrs and dogs...but I dont feel the need for a bath now after touching them. My shop vac is utterly full of dog hair. Think German Shepherd I am still going to get a seat cover for the drivers...

    Bringing a 2001 'Burb back from the Dead

    The prior owner gave me a full replacement set of stainless brake lines actually. I normally custom bend my own from nicu lines, but these will do nicely since they're already prebent. have about 20' laying around from another project. So I'm prepared if need be lol. Excuse the mess, I moved...

    Bringing a 2001 'Burb back from the Dead

    Soaked carpet with Purple Power and then pressure washed everything. I'm happy with results Cab looks like its brand new. Not 17yrs old! I should be able to use all the seats even. Obviously a cover for the drivers until I get a replacement

    Bringing a 2001 'Burb back from the Dead

    Paid $300 for a 2001 Suburban LT with 282,000 miles. Runs, drives, and has ice cold AC! Previous guy had parked it due to blown brake line. And at some point he left the moonroof open due to it refusing to shut. So interior got super wet and mold/mildew set in. It looks ugly inside and...
