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

    So last weekend i was changing oil with my wife's 18y brother who has never touched a wrench before. Was briefly showing what's where under the car and while doing so noticed one of the bolts on sway bar bushing was busted and the bushing was held on a single bolt. ( No wonder the handling felt...

    Sway bar attachment rotting out

    That looks like it, thank you! Sounds like a good reason to get to learn some welding, i had so many broken studs and other places where i said “would have been so good to have a welder”

    Sway bar attachment rotting out

    Rest is fine, everything around is fat and solid, just one side of the area around that bushing, probably water got stuck and was pooling in that hole. Checked car market to see if it’s in better state than 1-2yrs ago, Looks like time to get a welder!

    Sway bar attachment rotting out

    Noticed my sway bar bushing bolt was broken, ordered new ones. Unable to get old one out so far since it’s melted in there, but also noticed the frame piece for attaching bushing is basically rotten out in the middle. The holes for bolts are still there and other side is fine, however I’m...

    Sealight X1 - high beams look weird?

    Hey folks, wondering if anyone ran into same issue or knows whats up. My regular bulb died and i ordered Sealight X1s instead 9008/h13. They fit nicely, had to adjust them a little to make sure they are 3-9 clock aligned. Low beam looks superb, straight and sooooo much brighter. However the...

    Exhaust Flange leak, different gasket? Gasket maker? Sealant?

    Did you put anything in the hole where the donut would previously go or just drop in the triangular one and send it?

    Exhaust Flange leak, different gasket? Gasket maker? Sealant?

    Hey folks! Recently replaced exhaust manifold on driver side. New manifold came with “donut ring”. Old one was kinda similar size but was all squashed with sealant around it. Cleaned it up. If I understand correctly how the small donut was supposed to work is that it has sealant inside and...

    Rear main seal leak? Pics attached

    Wouldn’t it have pressure without dod anyway since oil pressure sensor is there? Mine is without dod but was pissing oil everywhere around the cover

    Rear main seal leak? Pics attached

    For anyone wondering - doing rms with oil pan at the same time was a right call. My mechanic said both were leaking once apart, rms cover had loose bolts. Should be picking up her today or tomorrow. Replaced: rms with cover plate, oil pan with all parts, oil pickup gasket, tranny cooler lines

    Rear main seal leak? Pics attached

    Thanks folks, i decided not to risk it with cheaper path as i'll end up paying more doing them separately of RMS is the leak :) The car is more like a "toy i always wanted" rather than beater, so i don't mind throwing some money to make it look and drive nice! Ordered oil pan, picktup tube...

    Rear main seal leak? Pics attached

    Been putting off looking into what causes oil drips on the driveway for the winter and it’s finally warming up here on Detroit border in Canada, nice n sunny by the Lake. So far I’ve figured the drops happen more often when i park it uphill with engine and when parked engine downhill, only 1...

P.S Anyone reading, when i changed my oil filter to PF48 from acdelco aka original intended, my oil pressure almost doubled to exactly same oil stats in post quoted, wow!

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

    Changed oil today. When i got the truck in September i put Fram TG10060 filter on it and Penzoil 5w-30. Had an oil pressure on lower side ( 40 startup cold, fully warm 18 at idle and 22-25 while cruising at 1100rpm on highway ), but according to other posts that seemed in okayish range for...

    Aftermarket front bumper alternative? Yukon

    Hey folks, wondering if anyone knows a decent aftermarket front bumper alternative for Yukon. Maybe a bull bar with front bumper included? My front bumper is cracked and seems like it’s such a common problem that it’s impossible to find a decent used one, been looking around for months in...
