I'm in the middle of taking off the rear shock, but on the top bolt, only one side is visible, the other bolt is tucked away behind the frame and i cant even see what i'm doing back there. Should i take off the spare to get some clearance or what??

I saw a write up on replacing the shocks for a 2000-2006 tahoe about a month ago with pics, and lost it. I've been searching for about an hour and still no luck. Does anyone have the link?

Hate to whore out my ad but..... I'm selling a Superchips Max Microtuner. The part number is 2715. Here's info from the back of the box: Up to 10% Horserpower and 13% Torque Raise Top speed limiter rev limiter Adjust auto transmission shift points Calibrate for changes in tire size and...

So again i have an 01 tahoe LT 2wd 5.3. Over summer i was making a ton of short trips because i wasnt in school and averaged about 12mpg....not good but i wasnt expecting a lot. I started school at Cal state long beach again 2 days ago. Its a 40 mile commute and i usually go around 70mph...

I've been riding around with my tahoe for nearly 3 years now. It's a 2001 Lt 2wd. My dad bought it new in 01 so i've seen how time has treated it and how it's held up. More recently though i feel my hoe is starting to show its age. I've had a squeak on my front left wheel for a long time now...

So i've been considering taking off my cats for a while and installing a bolt in piece of pipe that i can swap cats in for emissions testing....My question is, can i run cats without having any type of check engine light come on or do i need to mess with the O2 sensors in order to run catless...

So over the past few months i have been getting a ton of rattling coming from the back of my hoe even from small bumps in the road. Found out today that it's coming from the rear bench, specifically the rear drivers side and middle piece. The backrest has about a half inch or so of play and...

Okay, i've got 102k on my 01 hoe and when i'm moving from 0-15mph i hear squeaks from one of the two front wheels...definitely sounds like the bearing so i'm debating on the best course of action here. However, i am unsure of the life expectancy of wheel bearings and wondering if i should just...

Ok, so i'm at 101k in my 01 tahoe lt riding on stock shocks. Lately, i've been noticing a lot more bumps and rattles and it seems like that i need to ditch the stockers. I've looked at stylintrucks and am torn between the belltech nitro drop 2 or the street performance series....anybody have...

Just got my twin 16' procomp fans in the mail today with the thermostat controller :cool2:. JK did a writeup on how he installed his that i had looked at around 2 weeks ago. I just tried to search for it, and i pulled up nothing on the entire site. It's like the thread just disappeared

Finally got my set of NGK Iridium plugs today, picked up the haynes repair manual and started reading. I have an 01 tahoe LT with the 5.3 and heres what I've understood so far. The OEM gap of the plugs is set at .060 I should use an anti seize lube on the threads The spark plug wiring is...

Okay, ive hit 100k and i cant put off swapping my tranny fluid too much longer. I'm either going to use lucas or royal purple, and a buddy of mine is going to let me throw my truck on the lift so i can get easier access to the pan. I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) that the transmission...

Okay, its been like forever since i had a working camera....took a hard fall at Bear Mountain in january and broke the camera lens housing. Anyway, its fixed so i thought i'd post a few older pics of my hoe just to warm up. This was before any mods, save the Airaid intake...

After a few mods on my hoe i began to wonder how many ponies the 4L60e could hold up to. My mods so far are an Airaid intake, TBS, Magnaflow Catback, and a superchips tuner on a 5.3. I'm wondering how well the clutch plate and tranny will hold up if i keep adding to my power. I'm planning on...

A few days ago i got my hands on a superchips max microtuner and i've had fun playing around with it. In the custom options, it give me the choice of adjusting shift points and the shift pressure for each gear. I'm looking for performance but do not want to cause any unnecessary wear on the...

Finally got it today in the mail shipped for $160, thanks Bissb08 for the quick turnaround. Found out i needed to disable my onstar by removing a fuse first, but it did work. Took a while to save the settings and reconfigure the cpu but it worked. For now i stuck with the 87 octane tune but...

Its about that time to do my spark plugs! I'm going with a set of Bosch platinum iridium fusion and i'll also swap the wires while i'm at it. My question is....would i, as an 18 year old with average mechanical skill be able to make the change myself? I have a haynes repair manual for...

So for the past week or so, my brakes became a little quirky. Under hard braking i felt a little bit of a grinding/shaking of the brake pedal. It felt like the abs was coming on a little strong, but i shrugged it off. This morning, my ABS light came on and since i've been sketched out driving...

Well i'm a couple days short of hitting the big 100k mark and i'm going to repalce the stock plugs in my truck. I'm not looking at getting OEM ones, but something that would help run a hotter spark, maybe like Delco rapidfire, Bosch iridium, etc My question is, have any of you ever replaced...

So while doing some detail work on the ho, i wondered what it would look like sans the racks...i took the bolts out and thought it didnt look too bad. They've been on for around 8 years so theres a bit of a ring around where each base connects but nothing major. One thing is that the bolt...
