Lifter valley emissions tube?
There is an emissions tube in the lifter galley that needs replacing ever so often to maintain good oil pressure. What is it called? I see a metal tube "set" on top of the lifter valley plate, but nothing like this plastic or rubber tube that was described under that plate. I don't think they...- War_Pig

Partial List of Front Torsion Bars
I ordered a used set with 100k on them from a local yard. We'll see how these go. The set that is on here I think was strained with a lift and abuse when new or just replaced with a shit part to get it out the door initially. Soon it won't be a problem. The dealership didn't even know a good...- War_Pig

Ok. The rest of the parts are ready, waiting for a slot to open up at the shop. This will get the engine/transmission mounts in and the rest of the front end lift kit.- War_Pig

Now there's an idea! I do have a tow hitch installed. Deer when dressed are about 75-125lbs depending. Found this, too. https://www.discountramps.com/hunting/game-carts-hoists/p/DEER-HOIST-CARRIER/- War_Pig

Partial List of Front Torsion Bars
I found it on my glovebox sticker. 15712407 - LH (6WX) (Max torque 5826) 15712408 - RH (7WX) (Max torque 5826) These are apparently no longer made and I need new ones. Go figure. (edit) These are a tad pricey but would fit the bill it seems. Anyone used these as replacements? The site doesn't...- War_Pig

Are those chassis codes or option codes listed in the glove box (ex. 6GF) ?- War_Pig

2006 engine mounts
What brand engine mounts do you guys like for an '06 Tahoe? I see cheap options and OEM, per usual. 200k on these was a good stretch but I think they were done a while ago. I'm also curious if long tube headers shorten engine mount life with excess heat.- War_Pig

They're just fire roads that cross some creeks here and there. This should get me over rutted roads comfortably and not beat me up too much. I don't quite trust a tent with bears, coyotes, mountain lions, and wild hogs in the southeast. The Georgia Traverse looks interesting and there's a lot of...- War_Pig

There. Now quit whining :p It's not much to look at, which is the whole idea. No squat BS. It's mostly quiet. I'll likely get some 33s after these tires are done but that's a ways off. (Yes, we fixed the loose drain fitting on the caliper.) There is just enough room in the back to fit me for...- War_Pig

New guy. Refreshing an '06 Border Patrol Tahoe.
Howdy, y'all. I'm almost done refreshing my 190k 2006 Tahoe. It has a fairly colorful history and is enjoying retirement as a good daily. It will double as an overland camping vehicle. Pics in bio. The '06 vintage for Border Patrol I think simply had a Z71 suspension and 4.10 gears. I'll be...- War_Pig
