    True Dual Exhaust on a 2-Door

    I'm not sure about a 2 door 4wd but if you get under a 2 door 2wd you can easily see there is nowhere to run an exhaust pipe on the driver's side. I'd love to have dual exhaust on mine. If anyone has, please post pics!

    Complete Suspension Rebuild

    I have poly throughout mine too and the ride is a little harsh. he said he wants a close to stock ride and in my experience the poly is just a little too much. I wish I would have gone with rubber. I have a 69 Chevelle SS and it has tubular control arms front and rear and poly bushings and I...

    I agree with what has been recommended and would like to add go with rubber bushings and not poly.

    Just finished lowering 96 2dr 2wd

    The poly bushings made the ride stiffer than I wanted. I used them in the front control arms, sway bar, and rear springs. I would use stock rubber bushings if I did it again. I don't need "sports car" handling and would rather have a comfortable ride. The poly bushings come with a small tube of...

    headlight not working

    UPDATE: I bought a new bulb and connector. attached the bulb to the connector, then touched the connector wires to the battery terminals and the bulb worked. Cut the old connector out, tested the wires, 10.5 volts, attached the new connector/bulb, turn on the headlights - nothing! I pulled the...

    headlight not working

    I have a 96 Tahoe. My passenger side low beam quit working. I replace the bulb and it worked for about a week then went out again. Before I could replace it again it came back on for a day or so and went out again. I pulled the bulb and the wire in it is still intact, so I tested it with an ohm...

    After 7 long months I just got my Tahoe back from the paint shop

    UPDATE - I decided that there was too much white so I added the Tahoe logo to the doors in matte black. After looking at it I wanted to add just a touch of color, so I added the "SS" emblems from a new Camaro. They are smaller than I wanted, but my only other choice was much larger and it was...

    windshield wipers not aligned right

    Here's a followup - I brought the Tahoe back to the paint shop. Apparently although the wiper arms are the same size and appear identical, the notch on the driver's side and passenger side are in a slightly different location. They were put on the wrong side which caused the alighnment problem...

    windshield wipers not aligned right

    I guess I should mention it is a 96 model. They weren't fitting like this before they were removed to replace the windshield so there has to be some adjustment somewhere! I just had it repainted and if they stay like this it will wear the paint off the A pillar.

    windshield wipers not aligned right

    Sorry, I meant a notch and slot, not a tab. The tab is to remove the arm. You have to install the arm with the notch and slot aligned, so there is no adjustment.

    windshield wipers not aligned right

    As it shows in the video there is a slot on the arm and a tab on the mount. The only way the arm will fit is to align the slot with the tab. There is no adjusting it a few notches. That is what I was hoping for when I first took it off. It will only fit with the slot fitting the tab.

    windshield wipers not aligned right

    I just got my Tahoe out of the paint shop and they installed a new windshield. Now the wipers are not aligned correctly. The drivers side swings way past where it should stop and in the off position it sits way too high. I took it off to make sure it is installled right and it is in the groove...

    After 7 long months I just got my Tahoe back from the paint shop

    Yes it's like a panoramic view all around but I live in SE Texas and it's hard to keep cool in the summer. I'm going to tint the side windows as dark as I can to see if I can help cool it down

    After 7 long months I just got my Tahoe back from the paint shop

    It's an automatic, TH400. Right now it's got a 402 with a cam, headers, and a holley 800 in it. I have an engine ordered for it that will be here in Febuary. It's a 467 ci, 570 HP. I've rebuilt the suspension with tubular control arms front and rear, big sway bars and front coilovers. The...

    After 7 long months I just got my Tahoe back from the paint shop

    So after 7 months I picked my Tahoe up from the paint shop yesterday. I must say I love it. They removed the roof rack and all trim and emblems. There wasn't any body work needed but they spend considerable time making the body panels perfectly smooth. They painted it Toyota Pure white, and it...

    Like I said - it's in the paint shop now. I'm having the roof rack removed, all emblems and trim removed, bumpers painted white, new grill painted white. Basically everything is going to be white. It will be painted Pure White. Also installed a cowl hood.

    2017 Yukon taillight issue

    Thanks. Yes, I googled it first. From what I read it's very hard to fix yourself as the circuit board is very easy to damage as you are cutting the taillight open to work on it. On ebay there are companies that either sell rebuilt ones or you can send yours in to be rebuilt, which is a lot...

    2017 Yukon taillight issue

    My daughter has a 2017 Yukon. The passenger taillight went out back in july and we bought a used one on ebay and replaced it in the middle of July. Now 21 days later it has gone out again. Reading here on the forum I found that there are issues with 2015 and 2016 taillights, but could this be...

    Brake light out

    My daughter's 2017 Yukon had a taillight go out. We replaced it with a used one and now 21 days later it's gone out. I noticed the GMC special warranty is only for 2015 - 2016. Is this still an issue for 2017's and should we buy a rebuilt one?

    High idle

    I posted a few months ago that my 96 tahoe 5.7 vortec would idle extremely high at times - 1200 - 1500 rpm in gear and 1800 - 2200 in park or neutral. It was very sporadic. At times it would idle normally. I got some great responses but nothing helped. I changed the TPC and the IAC (?) and...

    Engine Idle

    Believe it or not, driving it yesterday and today - no problem,. Idled normal the whole time. As I said, it is not throwing any codes. When I removed and cleaned the throttle body, I cleaned the IAC port too. I'm going to spend what time I can this week checking for vacuum leaks and replacing...
