  1. I have a 2009 Yukon Denali that seems to have the same issue. Upon a firm acceleration, there is a "clunk" or sometimes a "clunk clunk" from somewhere in the front. Cant tell if its right side, left side or the middle. It makes a similar noise (may or may not be the same noise) when going over a speed bump (or in my case the end of my driveway). I've tried a hard acceleration with my foot on the brake and there are no noises to report so I don't think the engine mounts are involved. Any additional thoughts or solutions?
  2. I'm looking for a replacement ECM for my 1998 Corvette. The part is only good for the 97 and 98 model years. Changes were apparently made for model years 99 and newer. Delco part number if useful is: 19332289 or 16238212. This part has proven much more difficult to find than I anticipated. If you or anyone you know own one, please let me know. I'd love to get my car back on the road!
  3. I've got a 2009 Yukon that has some random LED headlights in it. I really like the look of the led's but they are garbage as far as visibility. Anyone have a bulb combo that seems to work well with the stock Yukon headlight assembly?
  4. Debating on the next firearm purchase. 1k or so is the budget and caught between 2 totally different animals. Do I buy another historical M! Garand? (I have a huge fascination with them as well as other war memorabilia) Or do I get a CZ Scorpion Evo just for the hell of it? Rock and a hard place... What would y'all get and why? Any other firearm considerations?
  5. Alright gang, I've got an '09 Yukon Denali that was having cruise control issues from time to time. I replaced the brake light switch which seemed to solve that issue but shortly after I had the service stabilitrak/traction control message display come up as well as a glowing ABS light. The switch was replaced a couple of weeks back. The traction control/stabilitrak message has illuminated maybe 5 or 6 times since and only comes on when I have stopped at a light or a stop sign. I know this may be a wheel speed sensor issue but the fact it showed up shortly after changing the brake light switch has be scratching my head. Anyone have a stabilitrak cure? Thanks for any input.
  6. I havent checked the alternator itself however the voltage on the gauge cluster seems to be within normal operating ranges while running. But, I suppose I might as well swing by a shop and see what they have to say. Since I replaced the battery the truck fires up right away so I dont believe it it be a battery issue. The flickering is reduced when the AC is off but it is still present.
  7. So, My 2009 Yukon Denali throws the "service battery charging system" message on a daily basis. The little red battery light comes on as well and stays on for varying times. The message seems to only come on while the truck is idling or moving at slow speeds (like when I drive down my muddy driveway or stopped at a light). The battery light may be displayed anywhere between 10 seconds to 30 minutes. Performance of the truck doesn't seem to be hurt in any way however the voltage gauge doesn't stay super consistent while driving. I had the old battery checked and replaced shortly after I bought the truck a couple of months back since it had trouble starting. Other daily symptoms include flickering lights and screens while at idle. Yes, the battery cables are corrosion free and securely attached to the battery itself. Anyone else experience or have a solution to this issue? Thanks! -Eric
  8. So I bought some surplus ammo from the CMP a while back to feed my Garand. Got the loose packed stuff in a .30 cal ammo can with the intention of sorting it. I stumbled across about 40 rounds or so with 1945 head stamps 30 of which are marked VC 45 (Canadian I believe). The remainder are marked SL 45 (Saint Louis Ordinance). Anyone know the value of this stuff if anything? I'm debating whether its worth holding onto or if I should get some more enjoyment out of my rifle with it. Thanks!
  9. I've got a friend who originally recommended them to me! Everyone I have talked too seems to rave about Vortex as a whole.
  10. Its going to be a combo of coyote hunting and general plinking.
  11. So.....Im looking to buy a new optic for some double duty action. I need an scope that can function on both my BCM ar15 AND my Remington 700 chambered in 7mm rem mag for some distance shooting out to 500 yards or so. I'm interested in either the Vortex Viper or the Vortex Diamondback (killer warranty). I realize there may be a need for 2 sets of scope mounts in order to fit the two rifles but that's not an issue for me. Which model and configuration do you think is best for my application? Thanks!
  12. Well, I've decided to spend the money and purchase a little quieter bang for my buck. I recently graduated college and decided a suppressor would be a nice way to reward myself. I've got my selection narrowed down to two but I'd like to hear some input from y'all to narrow it down to one. Both are 5.56 and will likely stay on my BCM most of the time. I don't have a use for any 30 cal cans seeing as how my only 30 cal is a vintage M1 Garand. Griffin Armament Recce 5- Average sound reduction, 35db 6.2" long 14.5oz in weight $645 from Silencer Shop Griffin is also running a promo that gets me an additional muzzle device with my purchase AAC 556-SD- Average sound reduction, 34db 6.7" long 18oz in weight $510 from Silencer Shop This one as a 51T ratcheting mount that I've heard mixed reviews with but I am a fan of the price Any and all opinions are welcome!
  13. 1) Yes, I am interested in accessorizing my truck. Nothing too crazy but I like to do a few subtle changes to make mine stand out from the crowd a little bit. My top priorities that I consider when choosing a product include price, quality and the reviews. 2) When shopping for an item, it is rare that I would sacrifice quality for cost. You get what you pay for. 3) No, I would not buy just on looks. If it has to look the part, it has to play the part in my opinion.
