I don't currently need any parts but this really makes me want to go to the junkyard just to look around. It's interesting even if you don't need anything.
Matt, the cleanest wiring install for the fan swap would be to get the factory relay block from the fan equipped trucks and SUV’s. It piggy backs on the stock fuse blocks. Pin the 2 relay trigger wires to the pcm, flash the pcm with HP tuners to enable the fans and your all set. All stock stuff with no rigged up crap.
definitely should do it this way. the PCM can trigger the fans based on ECT (of course), but can also trigger the fans based on the A/C compressor pressure which will make your A/C work a lot better while idling, you also get the ability to disable the fans after a specified MPH.
Matt, on the third gens you should take the widow wiper module or whatever it is called. Its the oddly shaped plastic thing affixed to the firewall. Mine went out and I could not find a new one. Heck I couldn’t even find the part number. I found two third gens at the local junk yard and took them both. Good luck brother, great videos!
I do the same kind of junkyard shopping for upgrades. My '76 Valiant sedan has HD cooling (shroud, clutch fan, 26" big core rad), 12" rotor swap, rear sway bar, passenger exterior mirror, trunk light, police ticket light, the Edelbrock intake & carb....all from junkyards
I was actually planning on going to a scrapyard tomorrow. Thank you for your videos and your tips. I learned a lot that I didn't know before when going to a scrapyard. 😎👍
I love the JY. I remember when they were lined with rows of 3rd Gens. That’s when I got my power seat in my car. When it was a bunch of 3rd Gens I just had mine but wasn’t deep into em like I am now. But I was able to find everything for my 91 RS Convertible. Poor burnt Camaro😢
That newer Tahoe did look like a police interceptor package no wonder people grabbed the rear end is already beefed up. Those rear speaker boxes are actually nice and would bump the bass for sure ideally with an aftermarket amo and bass control because if you have the Bose system it already sort of drowns the bass at times
Jeez down in Cali all of those Yukon’s Tahoe’s Silverados everything goes quick a 6.0 motor doesn’t even last a couple hours here, lucky to have so many in such good shape
Hey dude. Oatley, Quicksteel, etc. Epoxy putty works well enough for fixing the back side of broken trims. Fellow 3rd gen owner here. I'm used to repairing broken GM plastic. lol. This is why I favor black interiors. Hard to stain, easy to match. Great videos!
If you're going to Hazelton, it might be worth the 25 minute drive to Joe's in New Ringgold. They usually have a couple F-bodies, so does Achey's by Schuylkill Haven. I got a t56 out of there, and that's where RCR got the engine for the Falcon. They had a couple 1 ton 2wd vans/busses last summer.
Can't wait till you do the fans. I myself have a set I've had for several months. Love to see your install on those and getting them to work with the tune or you making your on harness to work.
I ripped all the bose stuff out my 1500 Silverado. all blew one speaker at a time. replaced with all new speakers everywhere in the truck. front tweeters, front doors, rear doors and the 6.5" sub in the armrest.
Arm rest/center console lids are gold on eBay in good condition. Just a thought if your picking to make money. Same with sun visors. They are small and easy to ship and they clean up easily.
that 03-06 denali center console was nice. Also the factory navigation. those are on ebay for $150+ (you'll want to get the vin of the vehicle if you do nab one to unlock it)
I had a 73 Chevy caprice and it burned to the ground , went to give the scrap yard my title for the tow that cost $100 bucks. That was 2 days after the fire. It looked like I was n a field for 75 years .so rusted ,nothing left. When you’d alternator is a puddle of aluminum on the spot where it burned to the ground it was hot.
Yo Matt longtimefan here,if you come across another set of e-fans for cheap snag it I'll buy them off you, I believe all GMT800 models from 05-06 have the e-fans,and another mod you might like for the Tahoe is the 05-06 rear glass hatch.
Boy, I have a 2003 Tahoe LT that I have been working on and I have seen several parts in this vid that I could have used and have been searching for! Thanks for the vids on Tahiti! It has been helpful for some of the things that I have been doing on mine!
One thing you should add is a power tailgate that opens and closes like put your feet under the truck and the trunk opens and when press a button it closes and when open it with your hand it opens with power. Add sensors to they are also cheap.
The police brakes should just be the upgraded pads. Calipers and rotors will be the same. If you go with those pads make sure you get the low dust ones
The truck you grabbed the fans from had a hydroboost system..good grab for that and the brake pedal. FYI..That green ac van could possibly have an 80e. I got mine from a cargo van.
The Harry's in Hazleton is HUGE and there's a large section of GM trucks, but...they have the GM car section way, way, way, way in the back of the yard. Prepare for quite a hike if your need GM car parts.
I have been looking for decent leather seats in junkyards for over a year and never find any around here, and the second Tahoe you looked in had exactly the ones I want lol
My local U pull and save if you go online they have a listing of all the vehicles and whiat rows they are in which is convenient so I don't have to cover the entire yard I just typically make a list and location of each vehicle go for a walk. I feel like a kid in a candy store in those places. Hard to go there in that spend 3-4-5 hours. Have retrieve several parts for my o4 from the you pull and save. Not to bad of a drive takes me about 45 minutes 1 way to get their.
Just came back from the junkyard. I went looking for that Denali to grab that center console and it was gone. I did find oem fans and the harness for them to grab as spares.
Good lord, a '58 Impala hardtop, I haven't seen one of those in a junkyard since the early '80s. Crying shame, someone's classic burned up in a garage fire no doubt.
I OWN A CROWN VIC POLICE INTERCEPTOR AND I KNOW THAT THE BRAKES FOR THAT ARE HEAVY DUTY FOR THE DRIVING THEY DO I ASSUME ITS THE SAME AS IT IS FOR A POLICE PACKAGE YUKON THEY WILL BOLT RIGHT UP. GOOD FIND
this inspired me to go to the junkyard and I'm glad I went to the bigger one out of the two in my town. Brought just a flathead and a philips head screw driver. Luckily got a like new air filter, a amp, new key fob, a few plastic pieces and a whole bunch of fuses for $80 after all of the fee's. Thinking about adfding a cigarette lighter to my runk as it seems easy to do.
Harry's You Pull it helped me save and completely restore and mod a 99 GTP, 05 Grand Cherokee, and 99 Cherokee. The place is a gold mine for older vehicles! Lorenzo's Pizza near Jim Thorpe on the way to Hazelton is a must!
Love these two junkyard videos so far I really enjoy them and cant find any like them on youtube you should definetly think about making more videos like these
Hey Matt, if you get a chance you should come up to New Ringgold (about 40 minutes N of Allentown), we have a yard here that will pull any motor along with whatever transmission is attached to it and sell it to you for $240. The yard is called EZ-Pull
Very cool stuff. Good times at the junkyard. Your making me want to go. I do need a few things for my Tahoe and my wife's Yukon. I'm very interested in the efans. Looking forward to seeing if you can get them to work.
Really liking the junkyard treasure hunt vids! Around here in Vegas its pretty difficult finding parts for my 4th Gen Camaro and my 96 Sierra...gotta resort to Ebay/Amazon.
I'm restoring a 2001 VW new Beetle right now and having a terrible time locating salvage yards that has parts. And everything online is heinously expensive. I never would have imagined that a 20 year old car would have parts that cost more than some Ferraris.
I remember that there was a Paul’s pull it near Summytown. It’s been like 8yrs. But I think that’s what it was called. I had found a Berlinetta out there
Hey man if you go back here, or find more where ever that Denali has chrome inner door handles I need the front chrome inners 👍🏻 been looking around and can’t find any online for my single cab 👎🏻 from 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
It would really be cool if a good number of people from different states, countries even, were to make vids of this nature so as to get a bit more insight into what regions are best for finding certain types of vehicles.
Hey Matt, I got the same Sony head unit and car as you but recently Ive been getting a whining from the speakers that changes with acceleration and stops if I beat on the dash, I triple checked all my solders and they look good, have you ever had the same issue? Looking online people were saying that the grounds on the stock amp go bad I’m gonna get around to checking them eventually but I was wondering if you had some insight. Thanks and keep up the great videos.
Matty. Was going to ask if that was a P-P you pulled the calipers from. I saw the wheel rims and was like A-HA. Cop pkge! Shoulda took the rotors too. The P-P pads//rotors are supposed to be AC-Delco Severe duty. I would try out the pads unless they are gummed up or cracked. Overall good score.
I have that factory NAV in my 06 Yukon with the updated Y91 Lux amp upgrade; great sounding system. If you have a chance and can get me those little black clip inserts from the rear sill plate I'd appreciate it and I'll pay you the shipping cost. Thanks!
No friggin way. I live like 20 mins from harrys. picked up an all original clean 85 camaro with the 305 and 700r4 that runs and drives. been pondering what I should actually do with it.
That’s one thing you won’t see at my work the bio sticker because all biohazard cars re-crash immediately after we get the batteries out Cal converters out and if there is a mercury switch, and tires then it gets crushed
Can you grab a cargo cover for the back? I'm doing a 05 chevy suburban. Motor overhauled and transmission. I'm running a 5.3l flat top pistons, tsp stage 2 cam, milled the deck, bored 0.3 over, ported head to 2", high psi oil pump. A Hugh's 2200 stall and 650hp billet transmission. 4.11 gears out back with Detroit locker
10th digit on the Vin is going to be the year for example if its a number 4 its a 2004 anything newer then 09 will be a letter which you can fine VIN to year on Google and you can use the chart
That Chevy truck you thought was an S-10 was a 2500 with the engine already gone. But the 4L80E was still sitting there would have been easy to pull with no engine in the way.
Those callipers are not going to fit, those are 07 13" rotors, brackets are too big and if your wheels are not at least 16" then nothing is going to fit......not enough clearance on the wheels, but it will be a nice upgrade if they do.......my 06 has 12" rotors. next time i do brakes, i will be using 07 parts.
As long as you have 17" rims you're good. You also need to grab the calipers and caliper mounting brackets. Have this setup on my 03. Also should use the steel braided brake lines in place of the oem rubber lines.
I don't currently need any parts but this really makes me want to go to the junkyard just to look around. It's interesting even if you don't need anything.

This dude is literally finding good ass seats while I'm over here looking for them
Man you aren't lieing I need a drivers seat bad.
Facts bro
Hell yeah 😂😂
Facts
My seats are so fat assed, and my local yard don't have sitter in decent shape that arent torn in half or vandalized.
I’m going to sit here and wait!!!
I was actually planning on going to a scrapyard tomorrow. Thank you for your videos and your tips. I learned a lot that I didn't know before when going to a scrapyard. 😎👍

Those rear speaker boxes are actually nice and would bump the bass for sure ideally with an aftermarket amo and bass control because if you have the Bose system it already sort of drowns the bass at times
Jeez down in Cali all of those Yukon’s Tahoe’s Silverados everything goes quick a 6.0 motor doesn’t even last a couple hours here, lucky to have so many in such good shape
Hey dude. Oatley, Quicksteel, etc. Epoxy putty works well enough for fixing the back side of broken trims. Fellow 3rd gen owner here. I'm used to repairing broken GM plastic. lol. This is why I favor black interiors. Hard to stain, easy to match. Great videos!
“I don’t know if those are turds or pine cones” -Matt 2020
I love going to the junkyard and just looking around!! It’s one of my favorite things to do!
I'm glad I'm not the only one. It's very calming to spend the day wrenching at a junk yard.
@@RogueReflections i agree
This was fun! Thanks for taking us along.
If you're going to Hazelton, it might be worth the 25 minute drive to Joe's in New Ringgold. They usually have a couple F-bodies, so does Achey's by Schuylkill Haven. I got a t56 out of there, and that's where RCR got the engine for the Falcon. They had a couple 1 ton 2wd vans/busses last summer.
Now you have me thinking. Need a few interior bits and bobbles for my '01 Tahoe. Love these vids you do in the yards.
Surprising those seats are still in the Tahoe's, down here in Texas they go by quick.
I'm actually looking for rear seats
Can't wait till you do the fans. I myself have a set I've had for several months. Love to see your install on those and getting them to work with the tune or you making your on harness to work.
I ripped all the bose stuff out my 1500 Silverado. all blew one speaker at a time. replaced with all new speakers everywhere in the truck. front tweeters, front doors, rear doors and the 6.5" sub in the armrest.
6:14 - those tail lights go for good money, surprised no one snagged them yet.
Can’t wait for more Tahoe videos! These junkyard trips are great - keep them coming!

Thx you!! Pls do more of these Tahoe junkyard videos. This is extremely interesting and entertaining!!
Pretty cool that yard has an engine-pulling a-frame. Our pick-and-pull pulls all the motors and wheels and sells them.
After watching this video, reminds me of back when I would go there after school just to practice taking out car parts lol.
I know what you mean. I used to tear apart my uncle's old chevys just to get steel marbles from the bearings. They hated me around.
One thing you should add is a power tailgate that opens and closes like put your feet under the truck and the trunk opens and when press a button it closes and when open it with your hand it opens with power. Add sensors to they are also cheap.
The police brakes should just be the upgraded pads. Calipers and rotors will be the same. If you go with those pads make sure you get the low dust ones
Damn. kind of nervous when you open those doors. lol. Im from the southwest and I once opened a door to see a rattlesnake looking at me.
I'm from Detroit, once opened a door to see a dude looking at me..
The truck you grabbed the fans from had a hydroboost system..good grab for that and the brake pedal.
FYI..That green ac van could possibly have an 80e. I got mine from a cargo van.

Dude, you made my day when you stopped at the Fiero! Definitely get one for your channel!
Winged Horse Garage: A Fiero Channel fieros are trans ams lil brother 😬
Cop brakes usually have a legit police shield etched into the pads....nice haul guy
Good pick. For the TV the power button is behind the TV when it flips down.
Just came back from the junkyard. I went looking for that Denali to grab that center console and it was gone. I did find oem fans and the harness for them to grab as spares.
Man there's alot of good parts! Seats, consoles door panels and other lil things! Good video!
Good lord, a '58 Impala hardtop, I haven't seen one of those in a junkyard since the early '80s. Crying shame, someone's classic burned up in a garage fire no doubt.
Great video. Junk yard shopping is the best. When the prices are good. An junk yards dont think they got gold. Prices
Love the tahoe videos! I desperately need to find the time to play with my 05 z71
Don't you have time now?
ebels3 sorry some of us are actually essential 🤷🏼♂️
This was a great video. And best of all I like the why you take things apart not breaking the other parts so that others can still use it. ..

Hazleton is huge. And they moved all the trucks and suvs right by gate.
Fiero is a great basis for small supercar built, Matt get it out of there and put some 2 liter turbo from some modern FWD car into the back of it!
Every time that you find a Corvette and a junkyard. They always take everything cuz. It's really rare to find these cars here.
I love and miss going to the junk yard just to see what’s there.
The tan work truck he thought was an s10 had the big 8 lug axles so it was a 2500, doesn’t that have a 4L80? I thought I saw a bell housing
If you happen to stumble upon a 1984 Mercury Cougar with the wire wheel hubcap still intact let me know.
If you have the factory amp it needs line Level in (RCA) if you use the speaker output from the radio it’s extremely loud.
Very cool stuff. Good times at the junkyard. Your making me want to go. I do need a few things for my Tahoe and my wife's Yukon. I'm very interested in the efans. Looking forward to seeing if you can get them to work.
Should’ve grabbed those aftermarket tires and rims great pick up tho!!
I did considerate it...
LsxMatt hahha thanks for responding! Never too late lol just messing, Tahoe is gonna be looking great!
I agree, everytime i come across nice aftermarket wheels theres always one missing or shattered
I have a fan harness sitting in the garage. Its an extra one. I set up my 2 trucks to electric fans . Let me know
He enjoys doing it ....that's great God speed every penny helps
If you go again keep an eye out for a 89-94 4x4 4Runner or Toyota pickup for me if you can. I’m in need of some misc parts for my 91 Toyota Pickup.
You have a sub in your center console, and Bose is wired way different, it’s hard to change any stereo component in a gm with factory Bose
Really liking the junkyard treasure hunt vids! Around here in Vegas its pretty difficult finding parts for my 4th Gen Camaro and my
96 Sierra...gotta resort to Ebay/Amazon.

Hi Matt,
Greetings from Los Angeles, CA. I too share your compassion for junkyard doggin'. Happy hunting!
Glad you got those brakes. Can't wait to see the diy "big" brake upgrade
I did it on my 03 escalade esv and its a big improvement.
I remember that there was a Paul’s pull it near Summytown. It’s been like 8yrs. But I think that’s what it was called. I had found a Berlinetta out there
Hey man if you go back here, or find more where ever that Denali has chrome inner door handles I need the front chrome inners 👍🏻 been looking around and can’t find any online for my single cab 👎🏻 from 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
If your tahoe is nose. Check under the center console for a sub...and I need to get one of those sub enclosures for the back...
WE NEED MORE OF THESE TYPE OF VIDS
Agreed.
It would really be cool if a good number of people from different states, countries even, were to make vids of this nature so as to get a bit more insight into what regions are best for finding certain types of vehicles.
Parts for days...im in south texas all the chevy stuff is gold
Hey Matt, I got the same Sony head unit and car as you but recently Ive been getting a whining from the speakers that changes with acceleration and stops if I beat on the dash, I triple checked all my solders and they look good, have you ever had the same issue? Looking online people were saying that the grounds on the stock amp go bad I’m gonna get around to checking them eventually but I was wondering if you had some insight. Thanks and keep up the great videos.
Matty.
Was going to ask if that was a P-P you pulled the calipers from. I saw the wheel rims and was like A-HA. Cop pkge!
Shoulda took the rotors too. The P-P pads//rotors are supposed to be AC-Delco Severe duty. I would try out the pads
unless they are gummed up or cracked.
Overall good score.
I have that factory NAV in my 06 Yukon with the updated Y91 Lux amp upgrade; great sounding system. If you have a chance and can get me those little black clip inserts from the rear sill plate I'd appreciate it and I'll pay you the shipping cost. Thanks!
i have been to a lot of salvage yards but have never seen one with so much crap and chemical spills on the ground that is just horrible
Junkyards are always great to go and look for parts.
No friggin way. I live like 20 mins from harrys. picked up an all original clean 85 camaro with the 305 and 700r4 that runs and drives. been pondering what I should actually do with it.
You should get a skar Ix-8 subwoofer it fits in the factory box with minor trimming around the top ring
Enjoyed your video. I live by Harry's in Hazleton. It is always crowded. Good luck...
That’s one thing you won’t see at my work the bio sticker because all biohazard cars re-crash immediately after we get the batteries out Cal converters out and if there is a mercury switch, and tires then it gets crushed
And how you can tell what year it is if they don’t have it marked on the vehicle, it would be on the driver side door when you open the door
Man whenever you go to the junkyard again id glady buy all the intrument clusters you could find
You should bring a battery jump box with you to test this stuff in the yard
i also need the oem gauge cluster and a sub box and a whole complete tv
Pennsylvania!! Born and Raised in the Poconos! Now living in the south
2500 Silverado had a 4l80e laying there with the engine removed at 15:37
He probably didn't notice it because he thought it was a s10 how he couldn't tell the difference from the size alone i don't understand
Raelly enjoy your videos! Enjoyed your trip to junkyard! Thanx for posting these videos!
He is soo cute! Your wife is a very lucky lady.
Can you grab a cargo cover for the back? I'm doing a 05 chevy suburban. Motor overhauled and transmission. I'm running a 5.3l flat top pistons, tsp stage 2 cam, milled the deck, bored 0.3 over, ported head to 2", high psi oil pump. A Hugh's 2200 stall and 650hp billet transmission. 4.11 gears out back with Detroit locker
Did you notice if they had any 07-13 silverados and that was a police package tahoe you can tell by the missing hitch in the rear
Hurts me to see so many of these in the junk yard.... 😢
10th digit on the Vin is going to be the year for example if its a number 4 its a 2004 anything newer then 09 will be a letter which you can fine VIN to year on Google and you can use the chart
It sucks that my pull-a-part takes off most wheels and tires before putting the cars out in the yard
Hey what I think would be cool, is to go grab a newer Chevy steering wheel from the junkyard and putting it in the Tahoe, I think I’d look cool
Grab those Tahoe police bolt-on wheels are worth money, they are super hard to find!!
That Chevy truck you thought was an S-10 was a 2500 with the engine already gone. But the 4L80E was still sitting there would have been easy to pull with no engine in the way.
You didn’t even notice it. You were literally talking about how you were hoping to find one while you were looking at the truck lol.
Those callipers are not going to fit, those are 07 13" rotors, brackets are too big and if your wheels are not at least 16" then nothing is going to fit......not enough clearance on the wheels, but it will be a nice upgrade if they do.......my 06 has 12" rotors. next time i do brakes, i will be using 07 parts.
I have 18 inch wheels so they should fit.
As long as you have 17" rims you're good. You also need to grab the calipers and caliper mounting brackets. Have this setup on my 03. Also should use the steel braided brake lines in place of the oem rubber lines.
I love my Tahoes. Parts are cheap and easy to replace.
Grab me those front seats and dash cluster from the second one. I need those.
