What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?
Very nice - I love Pismo. Was your footage using a "follow me" option on a drone, or was someone flying it? These kinds of videos are always cool. I was looking, years ago, for something to do that for the rallies I had been doing in my Vette. -bZj- Down8

Now that would be a monumental change! They've been there for what? 60+ years? One of the best things about GM vehicles - knowing exactly how your vehicle left the factory. :shrug: -bZj- Down8

Nice truck. I don't know which RPO is which, but if you get the codes out of your glovebox (the little sticker with lots of 3-digit codes), others can confirm which you have. -bZj- Down8

74Weld Bolt-On Portals for the GM platform
Porsche just got some portal news: https://jalopnik.com/porsche-built-a-911-with-portal-axles-to-go-where-unimo-1851071113 No word on which portals, as per one of the commenters. :-D -bZj- Down8

74Weld Bolt-On Portals for the GM platform
Yeah, their Toyota pieces are pretty stout replacements: https://motorsports.74weld.com/tacoma-4runner-portal/ $20k is insanity. Retrofitting Unimogs, or I think the new G-waggen portals has to be a cheaper. Or is at least Mercedes parts. -bZj- Down8

74Weld Bolt-On Portals for the GM platform
There's only one possibility for where: at the knuckle. Portals are definitionally at the axle end, right before the wheel. This is awesome news. I've wanted these since I first learned about portal axles back in the early 2000s. Looking at their site, they have Tacoma stuff - same bolt...- Down8

I loved my Nitto Dune Grapplers (since discontinued, I think :( ). But I can't speak to their snow-worthiness. -bZj -

Interested in seeing how this goes. The RC retractables I saw on YT looked like they'd be replacements for my stockers, someday. -bZj- Down8

What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?
As I am building up my "carry kit," I have been thinking of sticking a slime/repair kit & inflator in it, and dropping the weight of the spare - along with the need/desire to match the size of wheels/tires. Maybe once I do the 19+ upgrade.... -bZj- Down8

Ah, yeah, that can happen, too. Shops that do a lot of installs, but only off the shelf stuff. Hm. Here's the autoride info: https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/how-to-setup-auto-ride-for-lifts.75232/ Some members in this thread seem to be on top of AWD/Denali lifts...- Down8

Silverado struts vs Tahoe struts
I was looking at the Eibach springs this weekend, and they only show up for 2WD Silverados. Even their tech support suggested the same (not fit). But no reason they shouldn't fit a 4WD Tahoe, right? I can use stock springs and set the circlip to get lift. But, with the spring, you should be...- Down8

Build Log: Down8's Tahoe Has a Nickname
My meeting at the Uni went well. No dings, b/c I parked so as to make it nearly impossible. Here's the new BSM applied. It was a little nerve-wracking lining up the masking tape, and measuring multiple times to make sure it was as close to 14.5" from the bottom all along the way. I was checking...- Down8

Rear Glass Defroster Cord
That so? Learn somethin' new every day.... :shrug: I was just wondering why my radio station got fuzzy when someone pulled up on that side of me earlier today. I assumed defroster, b/c that's the only side a driver could see out of. It'd make sense to clear the frost off that one. And it'd make... -

I think the same: the slab-sidedness of this generation are just... wanting for something. And after trading in my 2005 for a 2010 Duramax, the steel actually felt thinner. So I feel the need for the protection on that big ol' slab of thin steel. I liked the simple "chrome" arrow strips on my...- Down8

2007 Yukon Denali XL AWD
It might be worth going into a 4WD shop near you, to chat up their staff. Sometimes it's easier/quicker to ping-pong questions with someone in person. Not trying to scare you away from this forum (just got here myself). But if you're starting form absolute zero, that just involves a lot of...- Down8

Eibach Front Springs Questions
PREAMBLE: I am hoping to rebuild the entirety of my 235k Tahoe's suspension. I tossed in a 2" lower strut spacers, just to get the nose off the ground, and it was ugly under there. This seems to have been a well maintained truck, but 235k is 235k, so a lot needs refreshing. I already felt the...- Down8

Build Log: Down8's Tahoe Has a Nickname
So the seat is not holding up as well as I'd hoped: Major wrinkle at the rear. This is contributed by not having the velcro hold down on the foam bottom, and the foam itself being a little smaller, maybe, than stock. Or the cover being a bit large, but the gap to the side panel/control points...- Down8

Add Accessory Buttons to Dash (in stock location, near traction control) - Options?
Like this, but more stock looking: www.amazon.com/dp/B07TJQ7738 Is there a company out there making anything that would match the stock dash, or at least fit into the same space as the traction control buttons down between the 12V plugs?

It's done what I asked: change tire size so my speedo is correct (w/in 1mph, per Google Maps), and deleted AFM/DoD (always in V8 mode). I haven't worked on the tunes yet, so can't comment. As the truck is new to me, I haven't beat on it much. I fixed my rear defrost, using the Permatex stuff...- Down8
