I noticed this while working on it yesterday.20250315_124007.jpg
From being lowered I'm assuming. Looks like an old war wound tho. I also noticed RUST!! Above the ds rear wheel well I have some small bubbling happening, and behind the wheel on the lower 1/4 panel the rust bubble has gotten much bigger.
Living in Jersey ain't easy.

Looks like somebody put a bolt in backwards. What would happen if you turned it around so the threaded portion is sticking out?

Replaced the passenger seat leather
Had some difficulty getting all the wires disconnect from under the seat, to the frame that holds the cushion so I put it on without detaching the cushion all the way, wasn’t too bad

Did you remove the seat from the vehicle like you’re supposed to?

I agree. That bolt on mine is turned around with the nut on the outside.
Another screw up on the mechanics part i guess. I don't think it could turn it around without running into sn issue. I'll just leave it.

Yes I did, would post pics, but they’re too large(got one to work)
Just did the bottom leather,
After removing the seat from the car, drivers seat only had a few disconnects to get the seat from away from the rest of it
The passenger side had multiple wires I couldn’t figure out how to disconnect
But, I had some wiggle room, so I was able to the everything attached

Replaced the fuel pressure regulator, fuel filter and fuel pump today on my 2004 Tahoe.

It refused to start last night after stumbling once after a previous start. Checking fuel pressure displayed a constant 41psi. (FlexFuel)

I wussed out (or got adventurous) and decided not to drop the gas tank and chose to replace the pump through the floorboard under the rear passenger seat. Access only took a few minutes after the seat was removed and carpet pulled back. Three straight cuts created a flap that easily folds back towards the center of the vehicle.

To button it up, three tabs were secured under the three cuts that were made. The opening was lined with butyl sealant tape, flap folded back down and then secured with short sheet metal screws.

Should anybody opt for this method, keep in mind the fuel tank is about 1/2" below the sheet metal along a driver's side front to back cut.

I didn't take photos but did use this screenshot of a video to determine where to cut. If you have captain's chairs as I do the bolt shown in the photo won't be present.

I installed a oil catch can a bit ago and now I have this noise like an air leak. If I pinch one of the tubes it stops so pretty sure its from the can but everything is tight and when you put my hand around trying to "plug" the leak and listen for a change I can't. So my question is does yalls do this also?

I recorded the noise but the file is too big...
