Oh crap. And you were pulling a boat?
Burb blew up this weekend. Sounds like a rod bearing disintegrated
What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

No. AAA wouldn’t tow it. Luckily my dad has a buddy that lives up in NY who was able to take the boat and the wheels to his house. Engine is still under warranty tho. Changed in late 2016 and it had a 3 year 50k mile warranty so just under both those
That’s good news but also bad news that it didn’t even last 50 k.

Yeah kinda disappointing but good that it happened now and not a month from now. Engine had roughly 39k on it

Got an alignment yesterday after cranking the torsion bars for a level ride. Rides nice still and has a 5/8" gap at the bumpstop still.
Those aren’t bumpstops they’re jounce stops and they’re used as a fulcrum point. They’re meant to be in contact. Yours might be worn out, I would try a new set and your ride might improve. A small gap is ok but it shouldn’t be 5/8”.
