    Bose and Cold weather...

    I'm having an issue with both front and rear left channels going in and out at the same time. I'm going to try unplugging it at the amp as suggested and see if that helps. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

    Front differential leaking - Thanks Honey!!!

    Nice job and that's pretty much how I did it but I didn't need to remove the strut. I came at the tripot from the under side of the bumper with a 3ft piece of rebar (rounded off tip) and a hammer. I changed my diff fluid about 10,000 miles ago so I just needed to top it off. Not a bad job at...

    Are you kidding? I've got something to hold over her whether she really did anything or not as she has no clue. Let me have this one man :thumbsup:

    Front differential leaking - Thanks Honey!!!

    Well I finally got around to putting in the new seal. I was trying to take apart the least amount of parts but ended up taking off the rotor & caliper together, upper & lower ball joints as well as the hub. I didn't have a big enough socket to get the nut off the end of the axle so I borrowed...

    Front differential leaking - Thanks Honey!!!

    Picked up seal at dealer today for $12 (guy always gives me a discount) along with seal puller and race/seal driver set from Harbor freight for a total of $30 (had a couple coupons). I've needed the race/seal driver set in the past so decided now was as good of time as any to just by it. With...

    Thanks Sparky. When you used the pry bar did you hit it or just force it out? I changed the diff oil about 3,000 miles ago right after we got it for my son and it had 100,000 on it. I don't think it had ever been changed eihter. I didn't notice any leaks then and it didn't start showing up...

    Front differential leaking - Thanks Honey!!!

    So my wife calls me the other day and says, "The Envoy won't move when I turn the wheel hard and back up. It just stops" to which my reply was, "Do you have the damn 4WD drive on???" Her response was yes, of course, and though my son had switched it by mistake. It had only been driven about 2...

    need help to choose shift firmness

    I went with 1 shift firmness and no towing. The most I will pull will be a couple snowmobiles and when I did that earlier this winter my Voy pulled them beautifully.

    Believe it. You've got 2 people in this thread alone telling you.

    What products NOT to use in our trucks?? (humorous version)

    Red - go with a brand name as this tends to wear out fast.

    need help to choose shift firmness

    I went with level 1 and if the change from 0 to 1 would hold the same for 1 to 2 then I'm glad I stuck with 1. First to second gear is where you feel the "jolt" the most. It's not bad but definitely a noticeable difference from stock and I wouldn't want any more firmness than 1. Personal...

    CPAS/Timing Solenoid

    I got mine from the dealer a couple weeks ago and paid 25% off the $57 list price. The parts manager said he would give me 25% off on anything I wanted going forward rather than me shopping online. Ask your parts guy and he might give you at least something. It's worth a try.

    PCMforLess - my experience - long write up

    m Me too. I let it set again unhook over night last night and today it seems to be better. Not tire burning power but it's not real sluggish anymore. Maybe 4th time was the charm.
