2011 Yukon SLT - starting to mod

[Erik G]

I never started a thread on my 2011 Yukon. I bought this after having my 2004 GMC Sierra stolen / stripped / totaled

(my mini-truck as well)


89K miles (I guess that's kinda normal for Houston)



first thing was the wheels - off with the CK375 and on with these lightweight 22's.



the offset on these stuck them out a bit and I really didn't like them. The lip made them look smaller too. So back to the CK375's

Added the G3's from someone here. Best first mod ever

 

[Erik G]

Added a Black Widow Venom 250 Muffler and kept the resonator for now

First frame is stock stock coldish start up.
Second frame is Black Widow warmish start up
Third is coldish revs.
Last is 65 on the freeway, and then punching it

and added the AirAid MIT and a dry drop in from AEM too

This is a cold start - sat overnight and this is the next afternoon
Sucks about the AC noise in the background. I'll try again sometime soon

so now - what else to do...

Thinking of the chrome strip on the back bumper - and the sides need something chrome besides the handles and mirrors. Cant decide if I want door mounding chrome or running board chrome trim - opinions?

Just paypall'ed tojo152 for the black flame retro projectors he was selling, that will be nice to be able to see at night...

Running boards and Escalade/Denali roof rack maybe? I would skip the door moldings, I like how it looks now. I agree that the rear bumper could use a chrome strip.

Then lower it?

 

[Erik G]

Any pics of the Denali rack from the top? I'll search. I never use them - except to grab on to while washing...

I think you're right on the running boards.

As for lowering - I was all set for it. It's flooded in Houston twice in 6 moths so not so sure now. I want to for sure. Wish I could bag it

It's a very common mod, so I'm sure there is a how-to-swap thread and plenty pictures floating around somewhere. I can take some of mine later, if need be. It's still fully usable as a grab handle when washing, I use it every time, haha.
