Default SUV... is it okay

I am getting a 2003 Yukon Denali AWD and putting 24" wheels on it. Do you think that this will make any difference when I am pulling my quads and crotch rocket? I have a 20' covered trailer, do you think that it will have any trouble pulling that?

I would check with GM on that. Just to be sure. I would think it should do ok.

You should be ok. Me and the wife were thinking about a Caddilac Escalade or maybe the new H2 Hummer. The GMC is nice too [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

i run a 1995 chevrolet tahoe witha a 350 (urs should be the 350 vortec wich is better than mine) and it pulls 3 bikes and the trailer very well (still wish i had a supercharger on it)but it it pulls very smoth at highway speeds and if you are going to be doing a lot of stop and go driving you will want to invest in a trailer brake control and trailer brakes. I think you will be very happy with that purchase.

I don't think I'd want to be towing with the 24" wheels on it. But it would have plenty of power to pull that stuff easily

Actually, Blastermaster, the Denali's come with 6.0 Vortec's and have like 325 horspower compared to the measily 255 horspower the 350's had. FYI

they have more than just vortec any more cause .3 liters is not enough for 70 hp (unless it is a diesel) I don`t keep up with engines any more cause i`m studying to be a machanic so i`m to busy with my nose in books learning all the systems on cars or working on all these little sissy "pimped out" hondas everbody thinks is so cool

and warriorman you will also need to get your speedo re-calibrated for those wheels
