    front parking brake cable replacement

    Hello all, I have an 03 Tahoe Z71 with a broken front parking brake cable. I can find no writeups or anything on how to change this cable. From what I can tell I would have to remove the parking brake cable to change this. Am I right? If so, how do you go about removing the parking brake...

    '03 z71 snapped foglight bolt

    I think we are talking about different things. I think you are talking about the plastic pins that hold the bracket to the foglight. The bolt I snapped is one of the two that mounts the entire assembly to the bumper...they go through the bumper and are secured with nuts (I think 10mm). The...

    Hey all, was removing foglight and one of the two bolts that mount the light broke off. It looks like the bolt is pressed into the bracket...is it possible to hammer the broken bolt our and replace it?

    no power to AC clutch

    Hey all, Got a problem I cannot figure out with my 03 Tahoe AC system...can't get power to the compressor clutch but I can get it to come on by jumping the relay. So far I have tested the relay and fuses and have tested/jumped the high and low pressure switches; this included testing the low...

    Changed front hubs still have noise

    It will be tough because I can't really get to that piece without taking things apart. It does look like it keeps dust out. I tried to find a picture of it online but they are not high enough quality to see it. It is a sort of rim on the part of the axle that goes into the hub. It looks like...

    Changed front hubs still have noise

    Hey all, I had a grinding noise from the driverside front of my 03 Tahoe Z71. I decided to change both front hubs along with the pads and rotors. Everything went back together fine but the front driverside continued to make a noise. I removed the dust shield and reinstalled to see if it was...

    Neet to remove seat, can't get to bolts.

    Hey all, So I have an 03 Tahoe z71 and I need to replace the memory seat module. I tried to remove it with the seat still in the truck but it's not possible. The problem is that the seat will not move far enough back to get at the front seat bolts. The seat only moves from full-forward to...

    Rear wheel bearing extremely hard to remove/install

    Hello all, I have a 2003 Tahoe Z71 and I just did the rear wheel bearings and seals. The passenger side was no problem. Seal popped right off, bearing pulled out with several whacks of a bearing extractor slide hammer. The new bearing went in just as easily...several whacks with a bearing...

    wrong diff fluid...what to do?

    thanks for the reply. I didn't think it would be an issue but figured I would check. I am quite surprised how well the synthetic-blend is working. Everything is nice, smooth and quiet. I'll try to get as much of the synthetic-blend out as possible. I'll probably just remove the diff cover...

    wrong diff fluid...what to do?

    long story short, after some repairs I needed new diff fluid. I was in the middle of no where and they had no full synthetic 75w90. The best I could find was synthetic-blend 75w90 so I threw it in. So far so good. I got home with no issues, no noises or anything weird happening. Now that I...

    What to do with this damaged rear axle?

    A week ago I changed the rear brakes on my 03 Tahoe Z71. Afterwards I noticed an annoying burnt grease smell which I tracked down to the driver side rear wheel. I assumed it was the axle seal so I decided to change the seals/bearings on both sides. My guess was right...the driver side parking...
