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

[Toyfare]

Got the lovely "battery not charging" message on the DIC Sunday morning. I left the car running until I got home. Turned it off and back on again, and nothing on the dash worked. I tested the battery with the car off and it was reading 12.12V and with the car on 11.45V. Went and bought a NEW aftermarket altenator and took 30 minutes to swap. I spent more time getting the damn belt on then it took to swap out the altenator. Everything runs like it should now!

On Tahoe 2 painted lower valance, cleaned headlights and parking lights need to get new fog lights since the lenses have fell off. Put trim dreesing on the running boards and bumper plastics. Adjusted front bumper too. Also got a pic of both of the Tahoe's together.

Got the Yuk some new tread now to get an alignment done
(Hankook 70k full set $488 out the door)

FYI Never let a shop sell you the TPMS valve kit buy them yourself @ the auto parts store its way cheaper

Monday I sold a brand new set of fogs for 20.00! I bought them for my tahoe but after going with the SS bumper cover I had no use for them..

You got the exact same parts I did when mine started weeping a couple months back. It is a SUPER easy job, especially if you have electric fans. It'll take you 1.5 hours, tops.

Haha awesome! Did you flush the radiator while you had the hoses off? if so how did you go about doing it? And I do have Efans

Motor has less than 1500 miles, had a pressure test ran today, head gasket was good but I do have a slow leak. I contacted the original owner he said he also had problems with leaking antifreeze. I had a new water pump installed when the motor was built. I also contacted the engine builder and said he did do I pressure check on the heads so there were no leaks. I'm thinking the coolant tank or radiator is leaking, only thing it could be.
