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

Does this look right, measurements after drop.

DF 31 3/4
PF 32 5/8
DR 33 3/8
PR 33 5/8

I am aware of the chevy lean on these trucks, but I can't fit a fist on the driver front but I can on the passenger front. Any thoughts from you guys.

Yup. Sounds about right. I've always known NBS to have a bigger difference. As @TheAutumnWind said, adjust the torsion bar to raise the front to match. The rear will level out (left-to-right) as well. Do this after putting some miles on the new drop to ensure everything has settled.

I just use the same synthetic grease in all my chassis fittings , don’t remember the brand.

same. I think I have the "red and tacky" stuff

Looks like the attachment near the front is not in right, or broken (the yellow arrow, the one with the guide pin). Here's what it looks like on the backside. Four attachment points, one of which is around the back of the seat and that one looks like the standard clip; the others are smaller black clips. (The lines you see are molding lines, no cracks in mine.)

Thanks Sir!! I’ll have to try pulling it off another day. I went outside, to play with this:

Then, quickly realized there was a lot of dog mines out there... so I picked all that up.. then realized the lawn was pretty damn long, so..





Then, I looked up front, and saw it needed mowing as well...





First mow of the season.. get ready for more work..! And eventually, I made it back outside to play, and entertain the pup, who absolutely loves chasing this thing..! Lol. Should have got a video of that..

Appreciate your help and pointers. If work is slow tomorrow, I’ll be trying to pull it off and have a look..!

sounds about right. Adjust the torsion bars a bit.

How much fuel is in it? Full tank vs empty makes a difference

Quarter tank, torsion bolts max out on height

Be sure not to over torque those bolts, I hear they break fairly easy.

not sure if you mean maxed up or down. Either way you can adjust one of them to even out the lean.

104 inch lbs. I did 60,80,104. No breakage. Thanks though!

Nice thing was the replacement cover came with bolts. Worst case scenario I could use an old one. Thankfully did not have to.
