Purchasing a used Suburban/Yukon XL

[zieglerj-pdm-specialist]

Thanks for all the info guys! I'm trying to stay away from autoride since I hear it's expensive to replace. Gas prices don't bother me as I only put around 6k miles a year. I ride a motorcycle in the warm/hot months! I need a big SUV since I often like going camping, fishing and overall vacationing with the family.

I'll be checking for transmission issues/replacements while I'm shopping for my vehicle. I prefer the GMC Yukon XLs as they do look nicer to me.

Thanks again!

My air ride compressor is not running but that could be to a faulty relay,blown fuse or just the compressor locked which I hope is one of those three because than at the most I would only pay$210 for a compressor and replace it on my own. If its the hoses or the shocks I maybe in over my skill set??

Did your compressor just up and quit one day or was it continuously running and running and finally died?? If it just quit running one day like mine did, it's the compressor and you can replace it yourself. Otherwise you may have a leak somewhere and it could be a line, shock, or check valve. Hope it's just the comressor... Pick one up from Arnott Industries for $189.99.

Triple check the shocks! Make sure they have no leaks otherwise you'll just burn out the new compressor. Actually changing the shocks isn't hard. If you have a jack, stands, and hand tools you can change it.
