Glad to read you got the chirping noise and wheels sorted.

Thanks man. Yeah, we're in a subdivision off Kedron in Spring Hill. Not sure how long we'll remain at our current place. We bought thinking we'd spend a few years here & then look for a place with more land. Then both of my grandparents passed away unexpectedly late last year. Since I'm inheriting a few classic vehicles & already have one of my own, I'll need a place to store them. Once everything with their estate is settled, I guess we'll start looking again.
On another note, the Tahoe died on me last week. None of the instrument panel lights come on when you turn the ignition, & it won't start. I have power to my interior/door lights & radio, & the battery is rock solid. I backed it into the driveway to try and jump it off (before I knew it wasn't the battery). My driveway is on a slope, so I couldn't push it back in. I also couldn't jack it up, & you can't just crawl under. So it's currently at the mechanic, as I had to get it towed out there a couple days ago. Thinking it might be the ignition switch or possibly starter. I'll update once I know for sure.
Also ran into another issue with the wheels. After having them rebalanced again not long ago, I realized a scrubbing noise started to occur again when turning deep. Turns out the guys at Discount Tire put regular wheel weights back on, & they're hitting my tie rod ends. That was an issue in the beginning due to the wheel backspacing. Apparently the tire guys didn't make a note of it, because I informed them what the issue was back then. Gotta use the stick on weights! Since discovering the problem, I haven't had a chance to get it straightened out. Once we get it running again, that'll be on the agenda. It's always something I tell ya.
