    Blast furnace

    The same exact thing happened with mine!! I just ended sticking the boot back into the firewall. I don't think I lined anything up either. Just jammed it in. So far I haven't had any problems. It's been about 2 months also. I don't have it lined up because it looks like it is folded over...

    Headlight Cover Removal 95 Tahoe

    The headlights are one assembly. I ended replacing mine. I got the IPCW brand and am very happy with them. They are an all glass front so I won't have to worry about them getting "foggy" again. They take the stock bulbs and take about 10 min to install. I got mine for about $140.00 I saw...

    brakes grabbing

    I ended up bringing it in and the mechanic said they needed to be adjusted. I tried doing the "going in revers method" several times, but he said they were so far out it didn't work. Apparently, the brakes are energized so the father they have to travel, the harder they're going to hit the...

    AC Oil leaking inside???

    OK, after some further investigation (in the daylight) it turns out it is antifreeze. It looked clear in the dark, and even now it looks like watered down mountain dew. So it appears I have a leak somewhere in or near the heater core. I've tried to open up the "box" surrounding it and holy...

    AC Oil leaking inside???

    I noticed today on the front passanger floor mat about a 1/2 cup of a very thin clear oil. The housing around my heater core/ac evaporator is cracked and it sometimes drips some water on a humid day, but this time it was oil. Naturally I assumed it was just a ton more water and dumped it out...

    brakes grabbing

    When I'm at idle speed, especially if the truck has been sitting for several hours, and I lightly touch the brakes, they grab really hard and basically try to lock up. I know this is common after it has rained and there is some light rust, but that is not the case. Pads and rotors look good...

    Yes, another exhaust question

    Allright, here's the question. I'd like to put a new exhaust on my '98. I'm looking at getting a flowmaster and have been talking to several shops and cant' get a straight answer to which setup is better. One place says to get a single in dual out and they'll put a "Y" pipe to make it a...

    Loose steering

    I found where it is loose. It is definately where the pitman arm attaches to the tie rod. There is a nut that attaches it. Is it a matter of tightening these nuts down or does the actual pitman arm need to be replaced or is there a bushing inside that coupling that can be replaced. THe only...

    Loose steering

    Did you have it fixed or find out exactly what was causing it? It's not bad a roadway speed, but at highway speed, it can get a little hairy.

    Loose steering

    Just wondering if anyone has fixed a loose steering problem? I have a 98 4x4 and there is some play in the steering wheel. It is loose between the 11 o'clock and 1 o'clock positions. It is pretty much dead between there. Once it "catches" it turns fine. It tracks perfect and there is no...

    question on high performance cam

    I was looking through the rpo codes and noticed I have code "L31" which is "409 CID V8 400 HP (Special High Perfromance Solid Lifter Cam). I was just curious if this is the standard cam or any history about this. Thanks 98 LT 4 Dr 4x4

    Got my new (to me) Tahoe!

    Well, I finally found a Tahoe and pulled the trigger. I found a 98 LT 4 dr 4x4 with posi traction with 124k. The exterior is pretty sharp. There is a minor ding in the rear fender trim and some scratches on the roof. Other than that, it's pretty sharp. The interior is decent. The seams on...
