Another project 06 Denali

[adventurenali92]

Yea I’m gonna go the same route I did with the tahoe. Some lift keys in the front and z71 springs in the rear with some shockextenders (for now) . Try and fine some more oem 17’s like I have on the Tahoe and put same tires on it. I’m not gonna take all the moldings off on this one. Just the emblems and stickersnon the rear. Throw a muffler on there with a black bear performance tune and call it good. Besides the maintenance items like changing all the fluids. That’s what I’m gonna do first. Will post pictures of the progress

Black bear will not disappoint! I just had my 2006 tuned a little over a month ago after doing an intake and a magnaflow muffler and it’s absolutely awesome! Also have my stock 17 inch Denali wheels I’m looking to part with if you’re looking for wheels haha

Parts should be here in a few days so here are a couple before pictures. I think it has a 2/3 drop kit installed because I’m at 33” in the front and 34” in the rear. My Tahoe was 34.5-35” in the front and about 36.5ish in the rear before I lifted it. The Yukon is also resting on the bump stops. Im also getting a clunking sound under hard acceleration when it squats. Only does it when I’m going slow and floor it. so I think it being lowered might have something to do with that. Checked everything under there and serviced all the fluids and nothing was loose. So hopefully when it’s lifted it stops.

Might be the slip yoke. It's actually a fairly common issue on the NBS trucks. The driveshaft needs to be removed and some grease applied to the splines inside the slip yoke where it slides into the transmission. Then put it all back together. Takes about 30 minutes to do, it's not hard at all. I would definitely try that before throwing parts at it trying to get rid of the clunk.

I’ll definitely give that a shot when I install the lift. Thanks for the advice buddy.

Did you get the parts put on the XL yet?

 

[Brad poiencot]

No not yet. I had it on the lift yesterday and it looks like my chain in the transfer case stretched. Under hard acceleration it has a knock. Sometimes it’s one then sometimes it’s a few. It feels like it’s coming from right under my feet. But only under hard acceleration. Drives great if you don’t get crazy. So I’m gonna get it back on the lift soon and pull the t-case apart to see what’s going on. Almost wanna just convert it to 2 wheel drive

Might be an option later on. I already ordered the parts to lift it like the Tahoe. Gonna throw a thrush welded muffler on it also just like the hoe. Also gonna have to get a small list to fix a few issues.
