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

Rocking same white LEDs here as well. I dig them. Just need to fix my hvac as it's dead and dark at night

Lights on mine are dead too.

What's the difference between the 51522 and the 57045? I saw someone else mention they used that one and it is what was on their wife's enclave or something, so that's what I grabbed. It looked the same as the one that's meant for the truck, just longer.

The threads on the 57045 are 22x1.5mm. The 51522's threads are SAE, 13/16-16. Not interchangeable.

Also, burst pressure for the 57045 is higher (350 vs. 290) and the gasket thickness and diameters are somewhat different.

The By-Pass Valve setting on the 57045 is 12-15 psi, while there isn't one on the 51522.

Filtering is the same at 21 micron (nominal). Both have anti-drainback valve. Wix has more specs on its web site, but here's a snip of each:

Put a water pump, and thermostat in today. Noticed a puddle of coolant under the truck yesterday. Found that some in the past drilled the lower hole out of the thermostat housing mount and the put a bolt through the back. Must have stripped the bolt out last time they swapped the thermostat.

Just to see if/how the truck adjusts the percentage, and I like to familiarize myself with the Tech 2. Wish I could find a good ethanol PID for Torque Pro.

But for curiosity's sake I should do some kind of comparison with a known sample, since I'm not really certain that the fuel composition sensor value is accurate. Not that it matters much as long as the fuel trims adjust and I have that awesome feeling of power under foot. (As Dad would have said, the "foot-feed.")




Hey! I resemble that! Seriously, I really lucked out getting a good solid truck, not having done much research on them before I bought. I have learned a lot about them since, though, mostly on the shared experiences of this great TYF community.

X2!! I lucked out, and have learned a TON here..! Y’all rock!

Annnd… I should see what kind of alcohol % I’m getting too. Haven’t looked for some time.

I think I paid about $335 in total this past June for my driver's seat cover and new foam cushion from The Seat Shop; quality stuff. OEM style leather/vinyl cover was about $210. Of course I haven't replaced it yet.

Same… I spent something around $500. New back and bottom, bottom foam, and new heater elements for both back and bottom, since when the back went out, I decided it was time to get ‘er done..! Annnd all the parts are sitting in my office….. soo Steve, when are we doing our seat repair party…!?

Sold it, Tentatively..

She is officially sold. Sad to see it go. Full 15k in cash sitting in my safe.

I plan on doing mine soon @Sam Harris and would love to experiment on yours! Although all I'm doing is the seat. Hopefully I don't break the old heater when I swap it over....

Heck, if the old foam cushion is still "okay" I may offer it up here to someone just for the shipping. Got a perfect shipping box from the Seat Shop.

I think it's a bit curious that every once in a great while we run into parts with SAE threads on these. Keep us on our toes!
