    Power window switch just took a dump...

    Odd thing happened today. I get in my truck, go to put my window down (front driver's side), and nothing happens. I just hear a really loud, dull CLICK...CLICK (two separate clicks for one press of the button). Check the other windows, good to go. No problems. If I keep my finger on the switch...

    Should I black out my chrome trim?

    I've got a pewter Yukon, and all of the chrome trim has seen better days. It's not horrible from a distance, but up close you can really see the rust spots and some pitting. I'm thinking that it would look a ton better if I painted it, but don't want to color match it to the body...I'd rather...

    Any good alignment shops in S. Denver/Littleton/Highlands?

    I need an alignment still after doing my keys and spacers. I don't think my truck is off that much, but it pulls to the left and I need to get it taken care of. My experience with dealership alignments has been sub-par at best, so does anyone know of a good suspension/alignment shop in the...

    BB Tune - high octane vs regular

    Alright. So, I'm going to be getting a tune from Justin some time after the first of the year, I hope. Since I live up at altitude, my options are 85, 87 and 91 octane, classified respectively as regular, mid-grade and premium. I'd probably have to start running 87 octane anyway when I get...

    Intake pipe size

    When selecting the size for an intake pipe on a 5.3L engine, would you choose a 3.5" pipe, or a 4" pipe? I had always assumed that bigger was better, but I'm not sure on this one. Would too big a pipe (4") create any intake air velocity issues, or would it be ok?

    Brake system flush

    I'm noticing that my brake pedal is getting a little spongy, so I'm wondering if flushing the brake fluid might be a good idea. I've never done it but it looks easy enough. Is there anything in particular to look out for on a Tahoe/Yukon? Is there anything specific that I need to do with the ABS...

    Keys and Spacers done!

    Ah, finally. I've been talking about doing this for a long time, and it seems like I've had the parts for it for an eternity. But, Saturday night I finally got the opportunity to take advantage of a friend's lift at his tranny shop, and we got it all in. The modest lift combined with my new...

    Discount Tire just made me very happy...

    4WP was having a 10% off sale, and their prices were already like $25 per tire lower than Discount's price. Discount said that they would price match, but the condition was that they would charge me 4WP's price for installation, which is $16 per tire (big friggin deal, it's $1 more per tire -...

    33x12.5 on stock 16s?

    Anyone running them? I'm looking for tires and 4WP has 33"x12.5 BFGs for 179.99 a piece, which is a hella good price. I've got Ford keys and 1.5" spacers to install when I get the new meats, so two questions: A) will 33x12.5 fit on the stock 16" alloys and B) will they rub even with the...

    Another coil spacer question

    I've managed to find some pretty good deals on coil spacers and torsion keys with my powers of google-fu and ebay-chi. I'm bidding on some coil spacers right now on fleabay, but there are three different height options, and I can choose which ones I want at the end of the auction. The seller is...

    Anyone ever buy tires at 4 wheel parts?

    I'll be in the market soon for some new meats, and I've decided on Nitto Terra Grapplers. I'm looking around at prices, and Discount Tire will send me out the door with four new tires for just shy of $800. This includes tax, mounting, balancing, valve stems, prorated road hazard and free...

    Picture thread

    Hey guys. I know that we technically have a picture gallery here on the forum, but it seems to me that nobody really makes use of it. There are only six different vehicles posted, as far as I can tell. Is anyone opposed to a running picture thread, showcasing our suspension mods? How about...

    Body Control Module

    I was trying to get a new key FOB programmed recently since my truck didn't have one when I bought it, but the dealership couldn't get it to work. They said the culprit was probably the body control module, but the part alone was about $200. No thanks. Well, a local guy is parting out an 02...

    Skyjacker shock question

    My buddy just bought a set of Skyjacker shocks for his Avalanche, but decided to leave his stock Bilsteins on it instead. He paid around $145 for them, but will give them to me for $100 flat. The rears are p/n H7017 for a 1.5" lift, so they will fit just fine with the 1.5" spacers I want to add...

    Any cops in here?

    This isn't exactly public knowledge, but if there are any cops on the forums with access to government pricing from Chevy, I'm looking for the MSRP on a 2008 Tahoe 5W4 Police Package four wheel drive Tahoe. I'm trying like hell to get my department to swtich from Ford Explorer's to Tahoes (the...

    Stock CD player just took a giant crap

    I was ejecting a CD the other day, got partially out and then got stuck. There's nothing on the CD thats sticky or would otherwise jam it up, as I've been listening to the same three CDs for about a month. This is the first issue I've had with it. Then, today as I'm driving to the gas...

    OEM Denali projectors...

    ...on a regular Yukon? Will they fit? Aftermarket headlights for the Yukons look like crap IMO...I don't need "angel eyes" or any of that crap, I just want a projector low beam and regular reflector high beam. The denali projectors are OEM quality and have good light output, so naturally that...

    Key fob programming issue

    Took the Yuke into the dealership a while back to have two new key fobs made (truck didn't have any when I bought it), and they said that they couldn't get the new ones to program correctly. They said it might be an issue with the Body Control Module. Anyone have input on this or experience the...

    Modding LED tails to fit barn doors

    Is it possible? I've got barn doors on my Yuke and desperately wanna get a set of the LED tails that everyone is buying on here. However, as we all know, they "Will not fit barn door models" according to nearly every vendor that I've seen on e-bay. So, my question is this - is it possible to...

    Just out of curiosity...liftgate retrofit question

    I've got barn doors on my Yuke. I was really amped about them at first since I'm tall and usually hit my head on liftgates, but more and more I'm getting sick of not being able to see out the back very well, and not being able to keep the rear windows clean (no rear wiper). Plus, it's annoying...
