    traction assist problem

    does the grinding noise come from under the driver side dash? i had a similar sounding problem on my 05 yukon, every time i would start moving from a stop i would hear this noise from under the dash and if i turned off the traction control the noise went away. it turns out that the noise was...

    Catalytic Converters!?!

    the cats on my 05 yukon went bad this fall at 24,000 miles and luckily it was covered by the warranty so i don`t know what it cost to replace. i`m not sure if yours has the same setup but mine has two cats, one on either side of the y pipe and it looked like a tough job to cut them out and...

    Exhaust Question

    i put a flowmaster american thunder catback on my 05 yukon a few months ago. i think it was part number 17419, it has the dual side outlets. i have almost no highway drone and it`s not too loud at any rpm inside. but when you put your foot down you know it. it was also easy to install.

    BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO

    i`ve had 3 sets of the bfg a/t k/o`s and i love them. they`re great in the snow and mud. i have them 35`s on my lifted 85 gmc pickup, they`re almost to the wear bars and they still work great in the snow. i highly recommend them.

    Cat Back vs. just muffler

    i just put a flowmaster 50 series catback with dual side outlet on my 05 yukon, the only reason i didn`t just swap a new muffler in is because i have an extreme hatred for single side exit exhaust. as yuke2k said, the stock pipes are more than adequate and being stainless is great. i...

    Dropped Tranny

    like everyone said, you shouldn`t have any problems. i had a friend shut off the key on me when i was doing about 50 in my 1974 grand am and it was in drive and that resulted in the engine still turning just long enough to make the car backfire so badly that it blew both mufflers apart at the...

    Exhaust Tips?

    i had to have them welded. theres no other way to attach them and it was expensive, there was only one local place that could weld stainless steel and they charged me $75 to weld them on.

    Exhaust Tips?

    i put some stainless 4x18 inch tips that i got from ebay on my 87 suburban with 50 series flowmasters because i hated the way the 2-1/4 inch pipes looked. (way too small) the only drawback was that after putting the tips on it got alot louder, the tips worked like a megaphone but i don`t mind...
