    1999 Chevy Suburban K2500

    I used my 4l80. It’s held up great. I can tell you if I redid it again I’d second guess the Cummins. It’s so dang big... it fits, but barely. Idk the dimensions of the 8.1 off the top of my head but a 6.0 would be the easiest and best bang for your buck imo. But.... the Cummins is pretty...

    Tahoe VS Surburban

    my votes for the burb!!! esp if you tow... the wheelbase makes it king. even if you dont tow, I doubt that theres a realistic difference offroading with the two as they are both rather large. the extra room has come in handy many times for me.

    2001 Yukon XL Towing Help

    It won't downshift under a high load situation like towing, esp uphill. Tow haul mode stretches the rpm range out to keep the engine rpms up for more power, and to keep the torque converter from locking up. I would say what you are expiriencing is normal and working as designed.

    8 inches wide, perhaps you have a different offset. I have a 2 in lift coming to get rid of the slight rubbing.
