Of course tonight I take the Milwaukee Hulk impact to the plow lights at darn near 0-degrees out and buzz the 3 remaining bolts off. This was not an easy task,these aren't made to service. Lots of plastic bending, pressing, and trying to get the rivets out that are blinded right to the backs...

I think this may be the best option...

Took the boy to wrestling tonight, on the way back home I got a flashing check engine and could feel the engine run rougher. My SG2 wouldn't pick up the code for some reason. Got home and pulled plug wires, cylinder 6 was not arcing. This was a JY coil installed back in October 2025. Swapped out...

I see permatex has all sorts of silicone type sealants and/or adhesives but none seemed to be for what I am trying to do? This was something I was leaning to, but wanted to stay away from anything that was really and adhesive. Is there a type of just urethane sealant caulk? Everything im...

I had a WH1C on my plow truck as it was nearly handed to me, installed with a PT Wiring setup actuator and hotside adapter. Always takes some trial and error with the home-brew stuff. I remember having issues settling the boost pressures once I first got it assembled and always wanted some type...

My 05 Yukon was experiencing water intrusion about a year or two ago. Specifically in the cargo area from the vents in the D-pillars as well as the electrical penetrations for the rear lift gate. I utilized a Home Depot exterior grade clear silicone sealant which seemed to work well for a year...

First plow round Sunday just before 5. Took care of our drive, MIL, and BIL. Second plow event Monday AM along with a road rip to make the rounds to MIL and BILs:

Got the aftermarket tail lights in today, and installed. Was on the fence about aftermarket. But for the cost, had to try.

Haha, 100% correct. This is the Fisher plow headgear. Reading how I wrote it I can see the thinking! Going to wait for a lull in the weather to tackle the headlight job and lift cylinder resealing kit. Fingers crossed we make it through the next 3 days. I do have a quart of extra blue fluid to...

Prepping for the biggest storm of the year for us. The plan was to get my headlights adjusted, heated the first nut up good after a few weeks of periodic spraying I decided to try it. Guess what, it broke. Not surprised. So for now, sorry to the people I blind. The head of the bolt is hidden...

I just had an intermittent no start on the 05 Yukon about a month ago, turned out severely corroded terminals on the starter just like you. No battery light though. Impressive miles on that unit. Things rot out up here before we can get near that mileage if not aggressively taken care of in...

Got the pitman arm off, always fun. I think all we need to do now is recenter the input orientation and we can swap this sucker over to the Yukon. I've never been more excited about something so lame.

Another quick run at the junkyard (that wasn't so quick) turned out promising. I got a set of black color matched Escalade D-pillars. People charge over $100 per set on the Market, paid $10. Also got some hood mounted pod brackets for $2. Someday I want to get some LED pods mounted up in front...

Plowing continues, the break is supposed to be here today. Then up into the 40s for a few days with rain Thursday night. Final cleanup the next morning:

Thanks for posting this, I have severe slop I have not been able to correct on my 05. Most of it looks to be from the gearbox output shaft bearing, but I am sure some might be coming from here. I have nearly 1-inch of play in my steering even after replacing 2 gearboxes, the steering shaft, and...

Looks awesome Nate. I agree, a small lift is what I would do. I cant leave anything alone either. When I had my GMT400s I always wanted a GMT800, mostly because of the hype. Now that I have an 800 I do really like it, and it is a great platform, but I grew up in 400s and always have a soft...

Overall interesting to hear. I went through the decision of the big 3 a while back, I really wanted a Toyota at the time, but wanted more than a 1/2-ton. Ended up with a new 21 F250 with the 6.2L and the 6r140. I'm at 91K now, I did have a coil pack kinda fail about 10K miles ago, it was arcing...

Snow has been frequenting much more normally this year. Several 4 to 6 inch plowing events. We have another event tomorrow and another friday.

Second plow event of the year, missed pictures on the first. Got the new rear rotors in from RA, awaiting the moment it isn't subarctic so I can put them on.

Ran the Yukon today doing errands with the plow on. Kinda messing with the tuning of the Hayden fan controllers. Found some issues I need to figure out: -After some fan cycles I get a P0480, which is fan circuit 1 error. Im guessing its not sensing a voltage drop from fan startup? It does have...
