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

[iamdub]

What about that ugly aluminum alt/ power steering pump bracket. Or the water pump itself. Or the... never mind.

Or the front cover, the rocker covers... I really wanted to paint all of that when I had the engine out. But, when that project got drug out, I just wanted it back together. It's all easy enough to disassemble and paint should I ever be so inclined. Much bigger priorities at the moment...

I'm gonna use some #0000 steel wool or 2000 grit sandpaper on that pulley to dull it down to blend in with the others.

Cool. Beloeve me, I wasn't criticizing. I was just wondering if the crashbar behind the front fascia was damaged. Did you also do the side lower mouldings? Have a side view?

no thanks for mentioning it i actually didn't even notice until you said something although i would have caught it at some point lol, im not doing the moldings just the front bumper, grille, lights. I'm actually taking the stock yukon mouldings off, going to de badge the whole thing,got some body work to do, slam it, and do a full vinyl wrap. I told myself I didn't want a project but then one thing led to another and here we are lol

Found a new leather steering wheel at the junkyard to replace mine which has some scuffs and gouges in it. Of course the junkyard wheel popped right off with the puller but mine just stripped the threads. Took my frustration out by persuading it loose with a rubber mallet. Also replaced the multi-function switch and put my old instrument cluster back in - @ 55 on the new one I am actually doing 64. Luckily only got a warning.

I’m pricing shocks for my ride and the Bilstein 5100 note says except ZW7 RPO code. Well I just so happen to have the comfort plus ZW7. Will they still work or is there something that different about it?

your best option is to just replace the nivomat with a new or used one those are hard or impossible to match or beat, if you choose something else don't throw the good one out because you might quickly change your mind and want the nivomat's back

.... if you choose something else don't throw the good one out because you might quickly change your mind and want the nivomat's back

Or you might find someone who needs one good one!

I have never used a puller, just grab the steering wheel and rock it back and forth while pulling up. Works every time.

Need to recalibrate that with a Tech 2. Assuming different tire size..? Or is the cluster horked..?

Believe me, I tried at both the junkyard and on mine. I read that same tip - grab at 3 & 9 and rock back and forth. And I did eat my Wheaties both mornings.
