    Getting so sick of a bad ride in the tahoe

    Are the H3's stiffer than the HD's? I wouldn't mind going with the full set as a replacement. Don't know if anyone has ordered the full set of H3 Bil's and mounted them on their ride.

    Wife's 2000 Yuk SLT OEM Alarm issue

    No worries, I fixed the problem. I took the horn relay and fuse out. Popped them back in again and it seemed to reset it I guess. No more errant alarms.

    Wife's 2000 Yuk SLT OEM Alarm issue

    My wife just came in to advise that on her 2000 Yukon SLT that unlike previous days, she would unlock the door by key, and as she opened the rear cargo door, or even passage through the passenger side door(drivers door key hole was replaced, but no spare key provided to us), the alarm would go...

    Steering Lock Broken: Attempted Theft

    That's good to hear then if it's standard. When I recently took my truck in to have the wiring checked for a connection to my new deck, the stereo guy hinted something of it. I hardly paid attention, then came to mind, checked it and there was no lock, so thought something was wrong. Thanks...

    Steering Lock Broken: Attempted Theft

    Some dip broke into my truck through the drivers side, I guess attempting to do something to the ignition... and have found that my steering wheel doesn't lock into place anymore. Is there an easy fix to this or does the whole locking mechanism need to be changed out? A car alarm install...

    Door handles 03Z71

    Went to LMC Trucks and only see the chrome, but looking for smooth black instead, perhaps another site ? As well, the thing that throws me off is when they call them "door handle cover". Is it a door handle to replace the previous unit, or just a freakin' cover over the current one. I don't...

    Door handles 03Z71

    Where are you guys buying your door handles from? Someone punched my locks in trying to steal my Hoe, and now have to replace a driver's side. Up here in the Great White North the stealership charged me $50 for the passenger side, now want $130 for the driver's side, WTF..... So, I found...

    Frontend kits

    Thanks Tony, but that's not going to help my steering issues(drifting and play in the wheel) for the moment. When I used to own an Impala SS there were club vendors at ISSCA that used to sell front-end kits(tie-rods,draglinks,idlerarm/pitman arms, bushings etc...) and you could get them for...

    Frontend kits

    Where are you guy's buying your frontend parts these days? The Hoe's getting loose and talked to the original and single owner who says "frontend what?" . Anyway, I'd like to do all the rods/idler/etc.. Don't know what all parts I need are, but would be nice if I could get a list of what I...

    What Design/Convenience features (or lack of) annoy you?

    Ok, I'll add one more thing. The rearview and sideview mirror dimming. Just great when it's on at night so you can't see a damned thing and smash into your next door neighbours new car, or run over your kids playing hockey on the street. Got to search out "disabling dimming rearview"...

    What Design/Convenience features (or lack of) annoy you?

    Is anyone else experiencing this, particularly those in the more northern climates.....sticky and frozen windows at the slightest amount of condensation or minor freezing? All four windows have been stuck on my 03Z71 countless times already into this year. I live in the Toronto area, but shit...

    Lowering Q. 00Yukon vs. 03TahoeZ71

    How much wheel-well gap on 305/45/22'S? I don't have 40's. I ended getting too good a deal and wasn't fussy about the fact that 45's were on it. Will the 3/5.5 give me the 1.25 gap all the way round ? I don't want to run into rolling fenders or any other incumbrances if I don't have to...

    Lowering Q. 00Yukon vs. 03TahoeZ71

    My wifes 2000 Yukon SLT measures 34.5" F and 35.25" R respectively(she might be sagging a bit in the rear, no pun intended) at the top of the fenderwalls with 265/75/16's(same diameter as my stocker 265/70/17's on my 2003 Z71). My Z71 measures 35.25"F and 37.25" R. Now my q. If I'm buying...

    No rear heat

    To clarify, take the 3 aluminum screws off, you'll see a metal tube built into the module which turns a black plastic knob. With the heat on in the car and rear cabin heat turned on at the front of the car, turn the black knob the opposite way from where it is. You'll feel instant heat coming...

    No rear heat

    FIXED IT ! Yeeeeehahhhhhh ! Got lots of hot air blowing in the passenger compartment now. What I did with the first actuator is shut the vent so it blew only into the rear passenger seats, this tells me that the first actuator/module in line is broken(this is the first and closest to...

    No rear heat

    Thanks for replying Chip. I think I was there long enough to feel some heat (15 minutes running the car at full heat). I flipped that black knob(literally of course) countless times and instead of feeling heat coming through the vents, it was cold air. What I did deduce from flipping it was...

    No rear heat

    I had the same issue with no heat coming into the rear passenger seats and little blowing air. So I took off the panel and found 4 different modules. 2 look identical, 1st and 3rd, while the 2nd and last(closest to passenger door). I took the 1st one off, guess it's call the blend-door...

    Sway Bar End Links

    I don't know if it's because I'm a bit dopey, but am I missing something here about a "flip your OEM sway bar/use shorter endlinks" mod ? Is the point that we're searching for shorter links because it's now required due to a 3/5 drop, or because fliping your OEM bar and using shorter links...

    Shock Swap 00Yuk and 03Z71 ?

    I have an 00 Yuk SLT with leveling system, the shocks are dead on it. Instead of replacing them with same, I'd like to replace with my shocks from my 03Z71. I'm looking to upgrade to Bilsteins with the Z71 . My wife drives the SLT, she couldn't care less just wants a better ride than the...

    Head Unit Wiring Harnesses Q.

    Thanks for the feedback, it gives me some confidence that I can do it on my own. So you found out the hard way it was the orange to orange and white...and that was the combo to provide illumination for the steering wheel controls...Guess you didn't keep your chime? I figure I'd keep mine as I...

    Head Unit Wiring Harnesses Q.

    I'm about to order the following below from SonicElectronics along with the headunit plate and antenna adapter. Has anyone installed the following and any issues/pitfalls/benefits of note come to mind? Was it easy, any wiring complexities/dynamics come to mind? Have you had any issues since...

    Small Stereo Upgrade to share

    So I've never really done much of this stereo installation before, helped a friend out once who knew what he was doing, but picked up some knowledge and thought I'd apply it. I put in a set of Comps, Alpine SPR 17LS's in front an back doors on my 2003 Z71. The front was easy as pie to drill...

    Sway Bar End Links

    Ok, I'm a newb when it comes to Hoes and such, but I'm looking to do the same shortly with endlinks. I will be relying on my experience with my Impala SS though. When it came time to replace my endlinks I did the following: OEM BAR: I turned in my wheels and measured that I could...
