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

[Fosscore]

Drove to the Lowes which means a few miles of freeway driving which I haven’t been doing lately. Found a nice Beemer that wanted to rally a bit on the way back. So here I was, boost on high, 10’ sections of gutter in the truck, Malamute with his head out the driver side rear window, kicking that cars ass and as I’m about to exit I slow down and as he comes alongside me he has a huge grin on his face, thumbs up as he rolls down his passenger window and passes me. Damn, I love The Beast. So much fun for what was just a run to get building supplies.

Lol he didn't see that coming from the NBS!!

New hub bearings. ABS was malfunctioning, even when just replacing sensors. Only one rounded off hub bolt from pervious mechanic. I had to cut off the bolt head. Air hammer and BFH were the heroes. One hub separated after 2 hits. Cleaned up mating surfaces real well and used plenty of Antisieze and felt like the guy from Mad Max...

Driver's side hub does not have excess play that I could feel, but was making subtle noises that are making me act on this in the next day or so.

I saved $38 off new hub from NAPA online with the 20% bucket sale.

Got the best hub assembly (with sensor) for the price of the cheap unit!

This was $150 after discount. It was determined when I replaced my passenger side hub, that the manufacturer of this hub was actually Moog.

I am cash strapped this week (no surprise there... everything is stupid expensive and my pay only went up 2.5% this year) and only needed the hub.

But, I got creative to get the 20% discount... I ordered two rear axle stud bolts for $1.89 each to qualify as having three items.

Heavy rain and storms tomorrow, so I am shooting for driveway repairs on Tuesday.

Hah!! This must be hub replacement week! See post above... Me too.

I don't have an air chisel, but I saved the old hub bolts from my other hub replacement.

I plan to use them and BFH to knock out the hub. The heads are mushroomed a bit from me beating on them, but I only need to thread them in by hand, leaving about a half inch of thread sticking out and just beat the snots on the bolt heads.

The last hub took a few whacks, but it finally popped out. I installed new bolts on that side, so I kept the old ones specifically to use in removing the other hub.

Your hub looked exactly like the one that failed on my passenger side a few months ago... As soon as I got the axle nut off, the outer part of the hub pulled off by hand because it separated. The back half stayed attached to the knuckle and was a stubborn!

Good work. Yes installing the bolts by hamd and hitting them works well!!! Its nice to not have my ABS beeping at me from me pullingnthe fuse because the ABS activating at 13 mph when braking.

Replaced my front windshield washer fluid pump this evening. Took about an hour (would take less now that I know what I’m doing) and cost $25 for a new AC Delco pump/grommet from Amazon.

Turns out you don’t have to remove the battery tray or fluid reservoir as long as you can work by feel from under the truck.

Have not had the time yet to get the data log done, so she’s running pretty rich, just to ensure no problems. Soon, I’ll get a data log to BBP.

Sounds awesome Sam!

Sounds nice! Sounds like it has some lope to it. How's your gas mileage been?

I picked up some Denso 25326903 flex fuel injectors (36 lbs @ 58 psi) from the junk yard for my re-build. I got a rebuild kit from the injector shop and started the process. Nothing clogged but micro filters are definitely dirty. Next is to see how to DIY flow check to see how close they are to each other. Any one else flow check their injectors outside of the engine?
