    I cant stop laughing! Warranty offer from GM

    I dont mean to backtrack the thread but has anyone else been getting those damn phone calls from random states and area codes saying that their vehicles warranty is about to expire? I have been trying for months to get rid of these damn phone calls but i cant figure it out. I get em every day at...

    Polk audio, thoughts, good/bad????

    Each speaker is going to sound different depending on your head unit because they all have different RMS and PW settings. Expect good sound out of any replacement speaker as GM makes some decent OEM head units and right now you have static- its not hard to make it sound better from there. You...

    wiring for fans?

    Hey all, Im wiring up my electric fans at the moment and have a question in relation to the AC compressor. I decided to make my own (yes i know about nelson and blackbear-great companies) because i have the materials and weatherpack connectors to do the job right (hopefully). My question...

    "Cheap" cold air intakes

    My two cents: . An intake on many vehicles will make a positive difference in breathing mpg and slight power increases and many dont cost too much. However: . Just cause you buy an intake does not mean its going to improve your engine performance; especially with those intakes above...

    LT vs Z71 Lift

    Im a huge fan of infiniti and alpine, been using both for years; infiniti makes great speakers and components as well as subs. Alpine makes great head units and pretty decent amps too. S, R, and X series subs are real good quality as well I tend to use kicker and rocksford fosgate for amps

    ride quality: 20" vs 22" wheels

    My two cents since i've owned rims in that size: 20's are a good middle of the road large diameter rim- go good with most vehicles, not too extreme Con- for a tahoe/yukon/nali, depending on what look your going for and what tire your using, they can sometimes leave a lot of fenderwell...

    dash lighting

    change the lights in the dash. I believe the bulbs are 194's (common GM size) but then again ive never swapped them on a tahoe so you might wanna get a second opinion on that. When i had my s10 blazer, i removed the gauge cluster and replaced them with green 194 bulbs (the vehicle was...

I have been around autos for a while and i bought this truck as a repo; i had never heard of these tires and the former owner lived in the mountains where more tread is needed. I absolutely love these tires though, very quiet but the tread pattern is...

    Trans 'double' downshift

    Im gonna second what everyone else is sayin. My first trans had a hard shift that would kick to 2nd from 4th if i jumped on it, and it was definitely noticable. In my new trans im running a different torque converter and a shift kit and when it drops down now everyone in the truck feels it. I...

    tranny cooler install

    Withac, Thanks for the reply, i appreciate it. Funny you mention cracking the connector cause mine did the exact same thing, i figured it would though. I just installed my new cooler right in place of the old one after welding up new brackets, and then ran new soft bi-woven rubber tranny...
