No, that's the 4th wheel. I just posted it to show why I'm selling the other 3.

Yes they're dirty. They've been on the side of my house for a year. You should be able to clean up the scuff marks(curb rash) with a Roloc disc and some touch up paint. I'll have the tires removed before shipping(they're worn out). I'm thinking $200 each plus shipping or all three for $500 plus shipping.

Center emblems have a "peeling/flaking" look to them. But other than that they're good. I got a 2007 Tahoe for hauling the family and snowmobiles. The SS was starting to fall apart and I didnt want to invest any more $. I'll try to post later today.

I just traded in my SS and have 3 decent stock rims for sale. One has scuff mark from swiping a curb. I'm missing the 4th rim cuz I popped a curb in an ice storm last year. It's raining today so I can't get any pix til later. I'm in northern IL. Let me know if anyone's interested.

Transfer Case Viscous Coupler
Merc Dr. replied to zachm89's topic in AWD, Differential, & Transmission Tech
There's complete rebuilt transfer cases on ebay for $1000 -
Fresh rebuild. Is this normal?
Merc Dr. replied to Merc Dr.'s topic in AWD, Differential, & Transmission Tech
I GOT IT! I looked over everything and found that when I was reinstalling the top trans bolt I dislodged the intake tube at the throttle body by laying on it.. Hence, no MAF sensor input. I still don't remember it revving to 6000rpm before shifting, but that's fine with me as long as that's what it's supposed to do. -

It had this stall in it already. It was tuned by Zippy. -
Just installed the rebuilt tranny and torque converter with 2800 stall. The battery was dsiconnected for a week. The fluids are maintaining the correct level. I took it for a test drive and it's acting goofy. When I jump on the gas it takes off like its in 2nd or 3rd gear. As it picks up some speed, all of sudden it takes off like a bat outta hell and redlines at 6000rpm before it shifts. I only drove it for 10 minutes cuz I didn't want to hurt anything. Is the computer just relearning itself? Is there any way the rebuilder mixed up 1st and 2nd gear when he put it together?

This helped a lot. But I found the middle one wasn't as bad as the upper driver side bolt. I used a swivel head ratchet with a deep well socket. I found it fairly easy to get at the cooler lines once I had the transfer case and crossmember out of the way. I dropped the tail of the trans down and was able to stick my head in the hole that the transfer case left to see what I was doing.
-
How many bolts hold the trans to the motor? 7 or 9? How do I remove the tranny cooler lines? Do I need a special tool?

I ordered a solenoid kit. I went to install it and found this. If you have read my other topics you may remember that I replaced the torque converter a few months ago becuz it was flipping between 3rd and 4th gear. it worked for a couple months then started again. I just dropped the pan. The fluid looked good until I pulled the filter and saw fillings on the top. I cut it open and looked between the pleats. I assume this is metal. Or is it fiber from the clutch plates? I'm guessing either way it means it's rebuild time? http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/gallery/image/8294-20140613-173537/ http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/gallery/image/8295-20140613-174606/ http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/gallery/image/8296-20140613-174644/
