    Couple problems 2004 Z71 Tahoe

    Nope, the truck has spent it's whole life in Ohio. From what I've seen the rusty bumpers on the Z71's are a common thing. I looked at 3 different Tahoe's before I bought this one and they all 3 had rust. One was black and looked terrible.

    Couple problems 2004 Z71 Tahoe

    I have a couple issues I need help with. I saw street suspension and lifted suspension, but nothing for stock, so I suppose I will put it here. Tahoe squeaks when turning the wheel and also when hitting bumps. I took it to a shop a few months back and they could not 'duplicate' the issue...

    Binding at full lock in Auto4WD?

    Stoopid question.... Bought the Tahoe last October. Love the truck, it's since become my wife's vehicle. I had the front differential rebuilt last December because it sounded loud. There was only one bearing that showed any wear and it is not much quieter now than it was then. Anyway...

    Rear brake backing plates

    Hey All, Wife says the Tahoe's brakes are acting strange. Says the pedal is spongy. I did the power steering flush last night. She says it's no better. Was going to bleed the brakes so I got under there tonight to soak the bleed screws. I noticed on the rear both the backing plates (thin...

    Those of you who installed Transmission Temp Gauges

    Pretty sure I saw the needle move some when I plugged the cluster back into the truck. The truck is a 2004 Z71

    That overlay you linked too is for a diesel. Believe me, I did the research. The ones for the gas engines are $80.

    Those of you who installed Transmission Temp Gauges

    So I bought a used cluster off e-bay. I wanted to retain my original cluster to I swapped over what I needed from the E-bay cluster into mine. The cluster I bought has been rebuilt once already as it has the updated stepper motors and a tag from 2008ish where the re builder initialed it...

    Moaning when turning in 4WD

    Moaning when turning in 4WD

    I am going to agree to disagree. When you turn with 4WD engaged, the front tires are turning at a different speed than the rear. When on snow this should not be a huge issue since the tires will have a lot less friction and can slip as needed. However, if driving on a somewhat slippery...

    Moaning when turning in 4WD

    It is not loud in 2WD at all. As soon as I punch the Auto4WD button I hear a low rumble, put it in 4-hi the rumble gets a little louder. Put it back in 2wd and the noise goes away (as everything winds back down). True, it's louder when turning for sure. I will check the PS fluid, but...

    Moaning when turning in 4WD

    Ok, I am back again. Bought the 2004 Tahoe Z71 in October. It was loud when in Auto4WD and 4HI. I took the front diff out and had it rebuilt. One of the bearing races showed wear, but that was it. The noise is still there as far as I am concerned. So I wasted my money on that repair...

    Cluster Compatability

    Not sure the transmission temp guage is working. I drove about 15 miles at 65mph and it never moved off 100. It is 32 degrees out. Anyone with a tranny guage. Do they move when it's cold out? How can I test it?

    Cluster Compatability

    Got it today and installed it. It looks as if everything works. Mainly the PRND321 work fine even though it is the newer style. Only thing I noticed is some of the functions are gone. My old one had "personal", "business" miles and seems like some other things this one is missing. I have...

    Cluster Compatability

    Yes Sir, as soon as I make sure it works with my truck. Wouldn't it be nice to have a 2004 tahoe with 0 miles on it again. But I think the carfax would give it away. :uhoh2:

    Cluster Compatability

    I ordered it. If it does not work I am sure I can resell it. Here is a pic. I was told it was new with 0 miles on it. Hope it works! Will let you know.

    Cluster Compatability

    Hello All, I am thinking about adding a transmission temp gauge to my 2004 Tahoe. I know, join the club. Two reasons, one I just has it apart to replace the speedo stepper motor and saw how friggin it easy was to do. Second, both my Duramaxes had one and they may be inaccurate but they...

    2004 Tahoe Front Differential

    Hello All, Joined here because you seem to know your stuff. I bought a 2004 Tahoe in October. It is a great vehicle. Going to be wonderful for the family. I have a problem with the front differential though. Truck has the 5.3L with the part time 4WD system. (Auto, 2h,4h,4l). In 2WD the...
