Just changed the pads and rotors on my 01 Tahoe. Rear pads where almost completely gone. After testing it on the road the rear brakes where dragging and smoking when I got back. So I replaced both calipers and both flexible hoses and I still have the dragging issue. What else could it be. The...

I know it's a little late but I'll take a stab at it. If you are getting a lot of body roll or nose diving that woud lead me to believe your shocks need to be replaced. The springs will bounce like crazy with old wore out shocks, or perhaps you just need some stiffer shocks. It would be worth a...

don't know about the rest but if you have dexcool in it now(orange) stay with it. If there is any left in there , and there usually is, bad things can happen. If you don't already have one a haynes manual is good to have.

Yeah I figured some new fluid was better than none at all. Every shop I called (3) said they would not touch it, much less do a full trans flush. I did try a pick set and a seal puller. The pick set destroyed the gasket material and the puller was putting to much pressure on the valve body for...

I thought I would post this in case anyone was thinking of servicing their transmission. What a PITA My Tahoe has 150,000 miles on it. I had no idea what the previous owner had really kept up with. I wanted to change all fluids; after changing everything the only thing left was the...

Well I got the stops from the chevy dealer. 50 bucks for both.A litttle pricey for what they are. Installed them today, it actually feels a little more solid in the front end maybe it's in my head. It took all of 30 min to get them on. Helps having a lift at work I can use. Anyway I feel better...

looks tough as hell; what thickness metal did you use?

Does anybody have any experience with lucas oil red and tacky multi purpose grease? just wondering about compatibility with the gm grease. I'm going to do some more research on the two the search function didn't work to well. Maybe I'm putting to much thought into this.

okay thanks

Hey fellas, Where is a good place to get the front bump stops for a 01 4wd tahoe. I can't seem to find anyone who sells them anywhere. Mine are about worn out and I'd like to replace them. I may end up going to the dealer if I can't find them anywhere else. No luck at ebay, amazon, rock auto...

Nice! Sometimes I daydream about taking the Tahoe on a National Park Tour. I bet it would be a blast.

Cool, I have an 01 Tahoe as well, Hopefully we can get many more miles out of them . Currently at 149,000. I've read that 300,000 is common for these rigs.

Hi, I have a 2001 also, Just bought it. So far I love it. It's hard to believe that a 2001 is 14 years old. It seems to be holding up well though. My other vehicle is an 86 ford ranger. The tahoe rides like a dream compared to that. Here's to many more good years from the Tahoe's!:happy160:

Hi, I have the same truck, so far seems to be a good vehicle. Hope we have many more years of service out of them.

wow, that makes me feel better about my purchase! Never been a chevy guy but I have heard a lot of good things about these trucks. Hope we have many more years of service out of our rigs!

2001 Tahoe w/148,000. I'm the third owner.1st was a doctor who supposedly maintained it religiously. The last owner used it for a kid hauler, same here. I replaced the water pump last weekend. No issues now and runs great. I can't wait to take it on a trip.

My father was a k-9 officer, retired now. He had a Tahoe for his vehicle. He said he wished he could have bought it when he retired he like it so much. He did get to keep the dog.

Heck yeah, it feels good knowing the problem is solved and we saved some hard earned money:happy160:

So after tracing the coolant leakage to the water pump I decided it was time to replace it. After getting everything apart I found that it was the water pump seal behind the pump that was leaking. It was the factory pump with 148,000 on it so I say it did it's job. Chevy wanted almost 400...

Heck yeah, bet she's a beauty, (the truck not grandma)...;)nothing like a brand new ride.
