    SmartLiner vs. YitaMotor Custom Fit Floor Liners Side By Side Comparison

    PLEASE . . . PLEASE Buy American folks! There is a $30 difference between Weathertech and Smartliner (for my other Chevy) and I am thrilled to pay up to get American made. I don't fuss too much about Mexican, Canadian, European or even Vietnam made products, but China is slowly destroying our...

    Custom roof rack light bar mount?

    I think the roof in front of the bar will block the beam significantly. As you elevate the bar you allow the projected light beam to light up the area closer to your Tahoe front end.

    2004 Tahoe Z71 Roof Rack Paint?

    I have had very good results with rattle cans, particularly on small parts. Krylon, Duplicolor, and Rustoleum 2X or Rustoleum Hard Hat brands. I avoid regular Rustoleum because it's too heavy. I have a small spray booth which keeps the item clean while painting and drying. Otherwise, check...

    Yokohama Geolandar A/T-S (G012) / Good or bad?

    M123 - can't vouch for this specific tire but I have used the HT Geolander (I think that was the model number) and was pleased enough to buy a second set when they were due for replacement. I trust the brand.

    New Rear Bumper Needed - Suggestions?

    I am going to replace the rear bumper on my 2006 Z71. I have found several brands out there and want a quality piece. My current bumper is body color but black or chrome would be fine. If you have recent experience I would like to know what brand you purchased and if you would recommend it to...

    Heater and Reservoir Hose - Special Tool?

    That billet piece from Gruven looks great, but the cheap plastic tee has lasted 180k miles, so I'm okay with the factory part. If I break the existing plastic connector, do I need the tool to install the new hose end? Or does it just slide into place? O'Rielly has a Gates replacement assembly...

    Heater and Reservoir Hose - Special Tool?

    There is a 3-way hose that connects to the water pump, coolant reservoir, and heater core at the firewall. The heater core end has a plastic fitting that appears to require a special tool (the other two are hose clamps). I can purchase this hose locally with or without the plastic end piece. Is...

    Door Panel Probs - Seat Heater and Lock Switch

    I have two problems not related but both involve removing the drivers door panel, and the parts needed are pricey. Seat heater - comes on at random by itself. Upon researching, it seems replacing the switch seems to fix it most of the time but not always. Any other possible cause? The actual...

    Transfer Case Fluid Confusion

    Vehicle is a 2006 Z71 Tahoe with auto 4WD and Stabilitrack. My T-case has trans fluid in it right now. I checked the manual and it's a little confusing. It says for AWD with Stabilitrack use Dexron III. I think I jumped on this seeing the word "Stabilitrack" and that's what I used last time...
