2007 Yukon 2500 SLT2 purchase

[Dasanii19]

I posted up on the gmc Facebook group but figured I’d post up here as well. I just picked up a 2007 GMC Yukon 2500 SLT2 6 liter with 108k miles on it. I bought it private party for $13,500 from the original owner. He had every single service record from day one and I believe he was a pretty particular guy with keeping up to date with maintenace. I just wanted to get your thoughts on the purchase and see if there was anything that inneeded to keep a eye on or any preventative maintenace that I needed to do? Here are some pictures

Nice find Zac! Very nicely optioned! I see she's got the nice wheels, 4.10 gears and does she still have the heated washer fluid? GM recalled this and deactivated it but you can get a new heater and activate it again.

Get a Tech-2 so you can work on it. Keep the fluids clean.

Do you plan to tow with it?

We don’t have anything to tow currently, but we plan on getting a camper or towing a rzr. I noticed the ring and pinion was replaced, is that normal for these to be replaced? Looking at the records, the previous owner was really on them with replacing things. Lol. On the window sticker, it says it has the heated windshield washer fluid. Are you saying the dealer would have disconnected this option?

That’s a STEAL, nice find!

What do you guys think if I were to put these 2018 20” Denali wheels on it instead? Would it look better?

I’ve always been a fan of the factory 20” wheels on the later HD trucks, unfortunately GM did change the bolt pattern so you would need adapters (you will need adapters with those 2018 wheels as well) but I’ve seen plenty of people run them with adapters without an issue...

Clean and nice find!

You stole that for $13,500. I paid $12,795 for my 09 Burb 2500 with 216k and I thought I got a deal. Only downside I can see is having the 4L80e instead of the 6L90, which is the whole reason I jumped into a GMT900 from a 800.

Check fluids and drive it!

There was a recall on the heated washer fluid pump. If the owner's brought it in for service, it was removed and they were reimbursed for the option. No, it's not normal for the ring and pinion to be replaced but not unheard of.
