Someone could make a spoiler to attache to the same three bolts.

They absolutely could. But do you really want a Spoiler on the back of your Avalanche?

Mine has the the handles removed and a surf rack in place there. Along with the cargo cross bars on top of the cab. I'm not sure where they got it. It came into my posession this way. But luckily It also came with the handles if i ever want to convert it back
 
Just want to say hello to everyone in the thread spot!! I’m new to anything social media, but love my 2013 AV!! Looking forward to connecting with everyone! I have big plans for my baby!
 
Hello all. I have an 03 Z66 and have some electrical "gremlins" that I'm hoping to get worked out by following some of the advice I've already read on the forum. I have aftermarket exhaust and am about to put dummy spacers for the O2 sensors. Just installed a Diablo tune also so hoping that helps. It recently started to not crank after sitting awhile, like overnight. New battery, starter and alternator. Just had transmission replaced and haven't been able to drive it much since then due to these other issues. I'm going to check grounds as I see that is a common cause of electrical gremlins! Thanks for the add
 
Hello

I've been on one of the many FB groups, new here. Bought a mechanically pretty solid 2002 here in Oregon a few years ago. No rust some small exterior issues but doesnt' bother me. I've done many small fixes (axle seals/bearings, new ignition lock, shocks, waterpump and hoses, alternator, etc), but its running good and smooth with 230k. In fall I applied Monstaliner on the cladding, looks much cooler now. I can't seem to insert a photo link from Google photos and all that. doh!

Welcome, I'd like to see the pics when you can post. I think that you need to comment on 10 or so postings and then you'll be able to post images here.

Just joined today I am having a problem. Bought a 04 avalanche in June of 2021 a Z66 in grey for $5800. Had some issues replaced ABS computer AC pulley belt and tensoner. Had its cluster replace by another one odometer shows 155K carfax says over 250K should be on it new touchscreen radio and audio systems also. Rear main seal and gasket after it just hemorrhaged oil at my jobsite on top of new intake gaskets and main belt tensoner and belt plus sensors. Febuary had to shop it again for a window regulator and motor and idler pully along with a water pump. Last week the rebuilt trans blew on me and now I need a new transmission as the one it has the housing is cracked.

I've been trying to find a trustworthy place that will stand behind what they ship so far I've got the brands in mind:
Level 10 $4100 for the Bulletproof 4L60e
Hughes Performance $5500 for 4L60E tried to put me in a 4L80E at $4500
Monster transmission & performance
JEGS
Jasper's
Weeks Trans local place near me using ETE remans
Cheeseboroughs (they want to reuse my old trans the internally failed with a cracked casing and stillwant to use parts from it in my new trans)

Any advice would be helpful.

I have personally used https://www.bestbuytransmission.com/ and the transmission has been excellent. Their prices can't be beat, they even pay shipping both ways (to you and core return to them). The whole process was excellent, they have 5 year 100K mile warranty, they are remanufactured with all the upgrades, just a great experience for me about 3 years ago (was for a Dodge 2500 transmission, used on farm and for towing horse trailers).

 
Hi everyone! Do we have specific forum for "for sale" Avi's? I don't want to post it here, if this isnt't the right section. Could someone please advise.

Thanks!(y)
