    alpha's 6.5 Tahoe

    I'm in no rush to buy a dedicated tow vehicle I have other means to transport vehicles. I was asking about the differences in the 1500/2500 Suburban platform due to planning for the future. I also wanted to know if my 6.5 Tahoe would be suffient to tow with due to lack of experience with towing...

    Thank you WW & Husker I'm not crazy. I do Care! If you guys read my last few lines before the pic of me using a Tahoe to tow a Tahoe.

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Not a bad deal deejaaa. Well after I removed the bug shield I ended up helping my girl fix her 98 5.7 2Hoe. She wants to sell it so she cleaned up the interior and I fixed the rear tailgate because it wouldn't open. Easy fix a rod was loose just had to take of the little metal clip and just...

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Well right now I'm sitting in my garage looking at my 6.5 Tahoe. So far I removed the big ugly bug shield. I found 3 chips in the paint on the front of the hood. I plan on buying some factory match paint and I'm going to sand down the spot then airbrush them and clear the spots. I've done this...

    Okay so basically the engine and transmission are the same what makes the 2500 HD over the 1500 would be the 14 bolt 10.5 floating rear axle, leaf springs, suspension parts? How about frame? The reason I ask is because I plan putting my Tahoe to use. I plan on towing with my Tahoe with it's...

    WW when you fan speed is set to off or the 0 position if my ac button is depressed the light still stays on. So I'm going to follow the thread you provided me and fix it. Thanks. Looks like that swish might have been with zero time on the clock.

    Okay WW you were right about the AC. After my last post I was thinking. The AC button was pressed in. So I just started her up. Let her run for 5 minutes but before starting her I de-pressed the AC button and this time when I shut it down... NO hiss. So no worries here. Thanks WW.

    alpha's 6.5 Tahoe

    Actually WW, I was not running the AC. That's why I am confused about that hissing noise but you are right it comes from the passenger side in the front grill. Should this be a concern? Is anyone close to me that wouldn't mind me dropping by so we can meet in person and check out my 6.5 to...

    I've seen few newer Burbs converted to diesels in my area going for $29,000. Okay so tomorrow I am going to have some down time and I plan on doing some cleaning up on my 6.5 2Hoe. I plan on inspecting my grounds and I need help with my p1191 code. Where can I start? Anyone have any ideas how...

    Yeah, they are very expensive these days and not as easy to turn wrench on with all the computer gizmo's. I heard a rumour that Chevy was going to bring back a diesel suburban soon. I am not sure if it's true but did anyone else hear anything of it?
