    Best rebuild kit for an LBZ?

    It’s not impossible to have mixed at the turbo but more probable to be mixing at the oil cooler. Are you sure the coolant wasn’t mixing in for awhile before the turbo went? Turbo will be the first to go with bad oil. If that would be the case then you might not be so far off on your rebuild idea.

    2001 Yukon XL 2500 LB7 Swap

    As for the core support i believe they are different for the different motor models. Not sure between LB7 to LLY. I’m pretty sure the LBZ is different. The shift cable i would use the whole thing from the duramax if your keeping the Allison. For the pedal that is a separate harness that plugs...

    Best rebuild kit for an LBZ?

    Unless you had a lot of coolant in there for a good bit i doubt it hurt much. Of course it wasn’t good for it but i would drain oil and refill fresh oil with some flush additive added. 220k is not enough miles for a rebuild. That’s just good broke in. 255k on mine with all original fuel system...

    Help on tires

    I have the Nitto Terra Grappler G2s on my winter wheels and they do real well. I’m thinking of going with the Recon Grappler next. I’m a Nitto fan as i have the 420s on my summer wheels.

    Sulastic shackles after 30k

    Well i had the same issue as you in a shorter period. They didnt even make it one year or was it two I don’t remember. They did warranty them for me and i have new ones on now.

    02 engine to 03 truck swap oil indicator not working

    I am actually in process of helping a neighbor do a coworkers truck swapping an 03 into an 02. Just this evening discovered the difference in the oil pressure sensors. 03 has its sensor towards rear just front of oil cooler. 02 has a goofy stem thing coming out just behind the timing cover same...

    Lost the motor?

    Show me 2017 or 2018 LML??? OP another site you can use to source parts is car-part.com. Search by distance to find the closest one at a salvage yard.

    Lost the motor?

    Yep good people they are at Hicksville. At least your looking a LB7 and not for a LML because they can’t get them done fast enough for the demand.
