    I like your mindset. You really don’t need a land cruiser or jeep rubicon to drive out on the desert or forest service roads........I probably won’t be driving Paris to Dakar or the outback any time soon......But there is plenty of dirt roads around Idaho, Nevada and Oregon that need explored

    I have an 02, 4.2 with 226,000 miles on it. Just completed 9 weeks blue lining out west with it. I brought too much fishing Stuff. Only thing I'd want different with MY 02 Envoy is 4 wheel drive didn't come with...21, 22 mpg hwy. I'm partial to GM having been a line tech for so long. Great presentation! I don't hear well at all and I had NO problem hearing you. Well done Sir!

    The Envoy and Trailblazers are incredibly underrated off road options. The 4x4 disconnect in the front end is really the only let down. I have an 07 Envoy. Lifted and on 31s

    • @leyhuezeyhur1440
      @leyhuezeyhur1440 3 роки тому +2

      Agreed. Took out the fork and collar setup of the disconnect and replaced it with the sleeve that is used in the AWD GMT360s. Permanently connects passenger CV with I-shaft, so slightly less fuel economy and slightly higher rate of wear, but oh well. I was tired of exploding the disconnect.

    • @HalfPaceOutdoors
      @HalfPaceOutdoors 3 роки тому +1

      When I had to replace mine this last time I didn't know about the awd sleeve until I replaced the entire disconnect unit. So when this one grenades I already have the parts to rebuild it with the awd sleeve.

    I have a 03' ext Lt 2wd with the 4.2 and so far I have replaced the timing kit, changed the crankshaft (while still in the vehicle that was fun, I put the 3in. Front and rear lift swapped upper control arm's and put bf Goodrich 285-17's and now I think I'll put a 3in. Body lift and see if I can get bigger tire's.

    One error in your info on these vehicles. Most with the 10 bolt rear end and standard length will have an 8" ring gear. You either have to have a V8 model or an EXT model to get the larger 8.6" ring gear on the rear. SS models will have a 14 bolt instead.

  • @matt296
    @matt296 3 роки тому +1

    So what are you saying about the mattress size on the Envoy vs Suburban, that the Envoy's mattress is longer. You saying you have to cut the Suburban mattress down to fit in the suburban, but you dont have to cut the exact same mattress to fit the Envoy. 54" wide. Extend it out to 75". So its longer. Cool. What do you mean when you say its the micro version. I was looking at the Suburbans = Tahoe/Yukon XL but you all do realize there is the same thing with these Envoy's, you can get the XL version, which is longer. Might be wise to look into that because the rear doors wont have the wheel well apart of the door. I will have to look into the gas mileage between the 2, but having more room might be something to look into. I need something to go 4x4'ing in and sleep in and yet have it as a daily driver. So many options.

    Offroadtb.com has alot of information for building offroad GMT360s. Love my trailblazer. Have a 05 with 3 inches of lift and some 32in Milestar Patagonia MTs. It's a real 4X4. Body on frame with a low range transfer case. They can be very capable little rigs pretty cheap. Just need a little elbow grease.
