This is from a product service bulletin that has went out. "Nitrogen is considered by some to be a benefit as an alternative to the standard practice of using air to inflate tires. If nitrogen is chosen as the inflation agent, it is recommended that nitrogen continue to be used for all...

Having worked at a tire manufacturer for about a year now, I have learned that you must fill your tires to the placard on the vehicle, not what is on the tire. Hardwarz

Uh....

On my old Intrepid, I added a transmission cooler. I put it inline with the stock transmission cooler/heater. Did you do the same thing during your install? Also, on the 'trepid, we usually disconnected the hose that goes to the cooler, start the car, and with the brake on, put it in drive...

so, if the 4L60E is basically a electronically controlled 700R4, I can get a 700R4 pan for the Tahoe, correct? (Or are there several bolt patterns for pans I have to worry about?) Hardwarz

Yes, after visiting a couple of the websites posted, I found out that the #74 bulb fits and that the bottom part was a plastic twist lock base that says "TOSHIBA V-2" The guy at AutoZone said that the #74 wouldn't work and that the bulb is a V-2 bulb and is a special dealer item only. I took...

Believe it or not, they're all hot 100% of the time. :-\ Hardwarz

No, you don't even have to remove the tire. I removed the bolt and got my dremmel in there without much of a fuss. Hardwarz

I'm hard on transmissions. The tahoe is the first light truck that I've owned in YEARS. I have a 99 Tahoe, 4 door 4x4 with the 350 Vortec. I actually baby the engine because of fuel prices. I tow on occasions. Almost always under 1000 lbs and only once a month or less. Do I have to...

Mine's been doing that. I have a 99 Tahoe 4 door 4x4. Between the driver's side rear door and the rear wheel above the frame, you'll find a bolt. This is where the fuel pump/sender is grounded. From what I was told, the flickering is a grounding issue. I took that bolt off and then took a...

Ok, so does a regular #74 bulb go into the twist lock base? I coudln't remove the light from the base (Didn't try that hard because I didn't want a broken bulb in my fingers) Hardwarz

I've been intersted in them, but don't have them. I thought about building my own using a 12", but I don't like the weight of the box and speaker I'd build on the door. Hardwarz

Thanks. I ended up taping the switched power to the running lights. I was looking for a signal for the relay to my fog lights. This is a temporary setup until I can get the signal wire for the relay inside the vehicle to a switch that is linked to a ignition on switched power source. Hardwarz

Is there an ignition on/switched wire in the engine bay for a 99 Tahoe 4x4, 4 door? Hardwarz

Not one huge battery, several, several, several 12V batteries... run in series and parallel (Depending on voltage.) Remove the gas tank and put a tray there to hold a dozen or so batteries. Trunk can hold a layer of batteries too. Suspension should be able to hold everything, if not, it'll be...

Hummm... been thinking... How would someone go about converting SUVs to Electric? Even if you make an adapter to for the bell housing to the electric motor to hook it up to the transmission, you still have accessories such as AC, brake booster and power steering. Not that I'd actually...

Do I use one? No Have I used one on a fuel injected vehicle? Yes Why? Extended runner length and the cost. It was for a Dodge Intrepid and was made by a Dodge Intrepid forum member. The cost of it was low enough that I was willing to try/test it. He built it from 1" aluminum and based...

Spiral grooving does not invoke a cyclone effect on incoming air. At most it will create turbulance. Hardwarz

I had the exact same thing happen to my 99 Tahoe 4 door, 4x4. I changed the fuel filter, this seemed like it helped, but the truck still had the problem. I asked around here, someone said, dump several bottles of fuel injector cleaner in the tank. I tried using a bottle here and there...

I was over my parent's house this weekend. I found my old rear seat that I unbolted from my old 87 Dodge Raider 2 door. The seat mount flat. I'm considering mounting this into the back of the Tahoe. The seats were originally designed to mount between the wheel wells. It won't be a 100%...
