What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

Driver floor is where mine got wet also. Definately take a look under the cowl. I hope that's it, I probably won't know for quite some time...
I believe I have seen another thread, where they had a leak further down the side of the cowl edge. Same issue, bad caulk job, wet floor.

Good job thanks for sharing. Will keep at it in investigation. Don't want this floor to start rotting out for damn sure.

Hoping I found how my floor got wet before...

Driver side cowl trim removed. Little hole in the caulking...

That's under the drover's side hood hinge right? I was also hoping it wasn't a windshield leak.

Yep, plastic corner pieces pop right off. Center is a little more work with wipers and reaching that far into engine compartment, but not too bad.

I found the rubber back flood mats can keep the carpet, well mainly the padding under it from drying for way longer than I expected. finally had to pull the carpet back shove some towel under it and give it a few days.

hate water leaks!

New Avatar? I likes.

Yep hoping to get better pictures before long.
Got tired of the side view, thinking I need to raise the back 1" since I have the 2.5" lift spacers up front...

If you have a sunroof there are also drain tubes that run down each A-pillar (behind the little Bose speaker) that could also cause a wet floor if they get cracked or clogged.

Someone was doing a lousy job with the seam sealer for so many people to be having leaking issues.

Funny thing, my windshield guy told me he's heard it before from Tahoe (SUV?) owners, pickups not so much..

I flipped the struts back under the A arms with the Grade 9 hardware. No spacers. Dropped the front down another 2+". Camber is off but I used my home made toe plates to get her straight on toe. (Best thing I ever made, HUGE difference making fast toe adjustments.)

Test drive was very awesome. Also removed the front CV shafts and bolted the stub shafts back into the hubs. Previous fender measurement was 34" with the 2" drop spindles. Will see how she settles in and will work on the rear drop when time permits. Trying to make baby steps. I did some highway running and full lock turns in a parking lot at work. No rubbing so far. Will be ordering some shorter front sway bar links to bring that bar angle down a bit.
