    '08 Z71 Lockpick whine sound under acceleration

    Hi guys, I installed the lockpick about a year ago and ocassionally there is a whining noise that comes from the Bose system that gets louder when I accelerate. Anyone have any ideas. Thanks, O2bwln

    AC blowing heat??

    Not sure how Chevy's AC works, but I remember that my Jeep Grand Cherokee's blend door for the AC system needed to be replaced. Might be the same thing here. The symptoms sound the same. Good luck and let us know how it works out.

    08 lifted z71 with 18" wheels...need tire size help

    I finally got the ccm 2.5" level kit with the 1" rear spacer and now want to throw some new tires to complete the look. I have the 18" wheels and can't find a good tire size that won't kill my factory wheel backspacing(i've tried the search function also). Any of you guys have any...

    Edge Evolution / SMM Performance

    Great info guys. I'd love to purchase this product but am nervous about it voiding my warranty. I just purchased an 08 z71 and would hate to try this only to have my dealer say 'sorry your warranty is void"!! Anyone have dealer experiences with this product? Thanks, O2bwln

    2007 parts on 2008 z71

    This might sound like a stupid question, but do parts from a 2007 tahoe fit a 2008 tahoe, namely stuff like the billet emblems from ebay, i can't stand the look of the gold emblems and wanted to swap them out. thanks, o2bwln

    Review: Pedders Sport Lowering Coils and GSR Big Bore Rear Shocks

    Just curious and please dont take this as an insult, but why would you lower a Z71 equipped suburban? Isn't the Z71 package an off-road package so lowering the clearance is defeating the purpose of the package. Again, no flame or insult intended, i'm just curious. Thanks, O2bwln

    New Z71 owner

    Hi guys, We just picked up a new '08 Z71 and Upper Management (aka the wife) has approved some basic goodies for the new ride. I was looking at getting the Husky Liner/Weathertech mats for the front,rear, and cargo area along with a new grill mesh. Does the '08 have the same exact specs...

    3"-4" is about max what i want to lift. I'll be using this as my tow rig for my jeep, but i figure if i'm taking it to Moad, i'll definately want to hit some trails with the tahoe. i'm more of a solid axle person so i'll be curious to see how the tahoe performs with its IFS. Either way it'll...

    Lift kit for tahoe

    Lifelong Jeeper joining the Tahoe family

    i'm gonna miss being able to off-road constantly. im leaving atlanta and moving up to maryland, so its definately going to be a change of pace and environment. but i think a brand spankin' new tahoe will ease the transition :)
