    Differentials and Transfer case fluid?

    IMO I would just do it yourself for the price of the fluids. It really isn't that hard and it doesn't take too long. Take a look at this thread, if you still have questions, post some more. http://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1003 By the way, GM doesn't actually recommend...

    Military or Veterans Here?????

    For Jmildoc and everyone else in or out, a couple things I just learned. I still don't know all the ins and outs of disability, but definitely check out the state to state benefits for disabled vets. In California if you have any disability listed at all and they actually can list it at 0%, your...

    Military or Veterans Here?????

    I'm in the military, Navy. I don't have any experience with that situation, but I'm unsure if I will be in the same boat as you shortly. I'm being treated for a heart condition, but if it doesn't fix it, I may be looking at medical sep as well. Good luck with it. Let us know how it goes.

    Question Regarding Diff Fluid Change..

    My $.02. It's pretty much how Jasper described it. I would recommend taking your diff cover off and cleaning it with carb and brake cleaner. At least do it to take a look at your magnet, make sure no large metal chunks, and clean it off. You have the option of using a gasket, RTV, or both...

    Wheel Measurements Explained

    Pilfered this from Bryan over at GMTC forum, but it helped me out a while back. It's originally from a Toyota Tacoma site, but the info's the same. Wheel Backspacing and Offset Before mounting a set of aftermarket wheels, there are some dynamics involved with fitment that are best to...

    Tranny fluid change?

    Did you turn it on and run it through the gears while somebody else poured tranny fluid in? I read about something similar in another forum or a click and clack type website. I was a little wary of trying it out. Do you tow a lot to flush that often or just being safe? I'm just curious.

    Need help/advice with towing problems

    Here's the pics I promised. Not sure if I uploaded them properly, so hopefully they show up. 1st pic: left side airbag in coil. 2nd pic: air line tee. I ran the line over to the left side to avoid the exhaust pipe. 3rd pic: Right side bag and heat shield. 4th pic: air fill fitting from inside...

    Pre-filter for Volant CAI

    That's just what the GM service dept quoted me they would charge the warranty co when I brought it in for that and a busted 4x4 coder motor. Of course the warranty denied the MAF. If I just went and asked the service desk it might be cheaper. Course that's new, sure I can probably find one...

    Pre-filter for Volant CAI

    I love the kit. I live in Cali, so I got it super quick. The install took no time at all and the engine compartment looks a lot cleaner. I wish I could think of something to put in all the extra space left after removing the stock intake, but I don't think an extra tranny cooler would work on...

    Tranny fluid change?

    As far as I know 06 was the first year Dexron VI was recommended. I could be wrong though. I put it in my 05 at 65k miles (I've been towing quite a bit). Can't see how it can be any worse. So far the shifts have been a little stiffer, but I've also been playing around with the shift pressures on...

    Need help/advice with towing problems

    Give me till tomorrow and I'll take some pics. Parents are in town watching the kids so I can finally get some work done on the Vette and the Hoe. The bag installed looks just like the second pic Max posted. If you like, I'll shoot some pics where I ran the air lines, tire chuck, and put the...

    Pre-filter for Volant CAI

    New guy here. Didn't join TF before I found this. Looked through the posts on both and couldn't find the answer. This can probably be easily answered by Volant1, but just in case anyone else is wondering. Looking at the Volant website found pre-filters listed, but couldn't figure out if one...

    airbags to keep ride height or for lift..is it possible?

    Odie, if you're still interested. I've got a couple Airlift 1000's shoved in the coils in the back of my Hoe. I specifically put 'em in for towing. Looks like you've got an '04, so that would work in the back of yours. You can go wit a more serious set up if you like. If you're on a budget, the...

    Tranny fluid change?

    Sorry to drag this back out. I'm new so let me know if I'm F'd up. Jason hopefully you haven't done your tranny drain and fill, cause I'll let you in on a couple of gotchas. Take a look at your tranny pan, if it is multi leveled, i.e. it has a deeper portion and a shallo portion to it, it's the...

    Need help/advice with towing problems

    This is my first post here, but I figured since I went through the same thing about six months ago, hopefully I can help someone out. Unfortunately at the time I didn't know about this forum so I ended up doing all of my research on a different truck forum. Like this one a lot better. I tow a...
