    Getting Ready to Tow

    I talked to a mechanic buddy of mine today. He usually does big Diesel stuff, but said he will do the front end work on my truck for me. He is going to do upper and lower control arms, inner and outer tie rods, and shocks for $800 total. Seems like a good deal. I may have him do a full...

    Getting Ready to Tow

    thanks for all the replies guys! I am about ready for brakes, so I’ll check out the NNBS upgrade. For a trans cooler, I know there is one, but will have to see which one it is. The truck came with the tow package including the big alternator, so it may already have the bigger cooler. I...

    Getting Ready to Tow

    My wife and I are looking at buying a travel trailer... it’s about 3500 lbs empy. My 04 Yukon XL has about 155k miles. The trans was replaced at 135k and has a hardened shell, and upgraded shift packs. The rear end was changed at about 145k to a brand new Eaton True Track. I plan on...

    Did I kill my Diff?

    It is an actual Eaton True Track... Im not sure if I have a u joint going bad. That would be a pretty big coincidence if that happened the day after I changed the diff oil...

    Did I kill my Diff?

    I called my local differential shop. He quoted $800 to put in a fresh open diff. I would loose the limited slip, but I'm not sure if thats an issue in SoCal...

    Did I kill my Diff?

    Did I kill my Diff?

    A few days ago I noticed what sounded like a tin can being dragged randomly from my 04 Yukon XL. It was only ever so often. So I got under it to make sure it wasn't an exhaust heat shield or something. Then yesterday as I was backing out of the driveway and turning there were 3 large bangs...

    Front A/C not Cold, Rear A/C cold

    Front A/C not Cold, Rear A/C cold

    I have an 04 Yukon Xl with the auto A/C Controls. The rear air blows nice and cold. The compressor comes on like it should. The front AC never gets cold. Set at 60 degrees the air coming out is not hot, but not cold. At 90 degrees its nice and hot. At first I though it was just the...

    Water Pump Leaking?

    So get this: All the parts showed up today. But something about the water pump seemed off. It came in a plain brown box, not a Delco box. And even though it had an ink AC Delco stamp, the casting was really rough. I googled the casting number, and it came up with an aftermarket company...

    Quick Sub Question

    I totally get where you are coming from, and to be honest, this is the first vehicle that Ive owned that I havent done a complete new system in. But right now I don't have the dough to put into it, and I have all the parts to add the sub in my garage from my last truck. Im just trying to get...

    Water Pump Leaking?

    Im just going to put a Delco pump on it. I figure even if its just a gasket, if I'm going to do all the work to change them, I may as well put a pump on it. I will do the drive belts and thermostat while I'm in there. Do it once, and do it right... Thanks for all the responses!

    Water Pump Leaking?

    I have only had my 04 Yukon 5.3 for about 6 months. The previous owner said he had a new water pump put on not too long before I bought it, and the pump does look new, its a GMB. But I noticed a leak in the driveway that I thought was oil, until it evaporated with little residue. I got...

    Quick Sub Question

    It seems like it wouldn't be any different that tapping into the signal going to the sub. I would way rather work with a low level signal than have to run a line level converter. Less to go bad....

    Quick Sub Question

    so couldn't I tap into that signal going to the factory amp, and run that to another amp and then sub? The amp I want to use has an adjustable crossover....

    Quick Sub Question

    I want to add another sub to my 04 Yukon with BOSE. I have a decent amp and a couple different 10s to play with. I want to grab the signal off the back of the head unit so that the amp doesn't cut the bass when its turned up. My question: Do I need a line level converter if I grab my signal...
