03 Tahoe project

[Tonyrodz]

Ordered a short antenna with universal fit that wasn't so universal so time for the drill master. Shaved back enough of the vent cover piece to fit around the base of the antenna
The wheel bearings on driver side front went out today, going to switch out wheel hubs tomorrow. There are horrible noises coming from beneath Fatso he must have eaten Taco Bell.View attachment 72125 View attachment 72126 View attachment 72127 View attachment 72128

How's your reception with the shorty? Is it good out of the city?

Idk yet. I'll post once I find out, just got my radio back from warranty work for last 6 weeks. Have to install it this week

Need some opinions.

Planning on getting the truck painted OEM black sometime soon but want to get all my exterior items on point before it goes to the body shop.

My question is: should I
1) keep same front bumper but drop bumper mount for uncut HD grille with HD upper bumper cap?
2) should I do Street Scene painted SS or similar style painted fiberglass bumper with round foglights?
3) get 2005 GMC Sierra bumper with round foglights and uncut HD grille?

Also, keep rear bumper or do painted rollpan?

Just got radio in. In the city and first impression is a very clear signal, very crisp. Out of the city idk but the screen is Bluetooth so I can do internet radio or iHeart.

Touchscreen Pioneer 280-T
Plays DVDs and has Bluetooth that connects to my phone
Remote and microphone included
$500 after wire and install, 250 for just the screen at Car Toys including warranty. I just used the warranty so I believe it was worth it

I've never seen a Tahoe, even with the HD grill, with a GMC bumper. any reference pics? Might be pretty cool!

You might be able to just use the stock underliner that's already there, I think that goes around under the drl/turns but idk how far it hangs down.

True, might work. But should I de-purify the Chevy with a GMC part?

I hadn't thought of that. But GM is GM, right?
