What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

4600's with shock extenders? I'm asking because I'm on the market as well. I may need to perform the free travel mod as well

If you lower the rear then yes you need shock extenders regardless of which shocks you have on. They are used so your shocks aren't already partially compressed, leaving only about half the normal travel. Extenders give you back the travel that lowering loses so your shocks don't bottom out.

You can run without extenders if you enjoy bottoming out the shocks lol.
I know a guy that did it. He cut his springs too. Decranked stock keys. Literally a free lowering kit lmao. He was like you can do yours, I said I'll pass.

Did a little brake work prep to make next weekend's big brake job go soother. Striped the rear brakes down, soaked everything in penetrating oil, and prepped the new NNBS front calipers and the old NBS calipers for paint.



A few more details on today, as well as future updates, on my build thread.

I'm pretty sure you just need to make sure you are using canbus LEDs. Canbus LEDs have loading resistors in them (I think) that allows the truck to tell there is a good bulb in there.

Good point. I'd read about this issue in a previous thread. I do not believe they are the canbus type. Thx for reminding me about that.

Pissed bc I forgot to post on my one year anniversary on the forum. My truck has come a long way since then.

Didn't do anything yet because it just happened, but my cluster is dead again. Sux! And I keep getting the "Reduced Engine Power".

I tried banging the top of the dash with no luck.
