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

Dang! "Doorman" stepping up their game!

I was actually thinking of replacing them on my 04 project suburban...I think I'll try these Dorman metal ones. Thanks for posting!

Gotta let us know how the quality and fit is--and if they're worth it.

Note that the OE tees have slightly different angles for the rear heat hoses. I don't know if Dorman has the same.

Looks like they have two models as OE does. Intrigued, however I just bought GM tees a month ago to put in. Might still have to try these.



EDIT: For $45 on RockAuto - why not? I'll keep the OE in case they don't work out.

Replaced the parking brake release handle/cable on the wife’s 04 Yukon. Couldn’t locate a Gm original. Settled for some knockoff on Amazon. Seems decent. We’ll see how long it lasts.

At least it’s a simple job and when it fails you can still release it by hand fairly easily. These are the only things I don’t mind trying a cheaper alternative with.

I did the same with the hood release - no name on amazon was quicker.

The metal Dormans are $45 each?

I checked and they were around $17/$15 each on Rockauto.

I actually just ordered mine...

Enjoyed a nice day in North TX.

Changed 22 year old bulbs to LED…DRL, turn signal, backup, and brake lights. Installed a LED compatible flasher… without loosing a bunch of skin on the hands .. pleased with results; no hyper-flash… life is good.

In the process, broke and repaired mounting tab on tail light assembly.

$45 taxed and shipped for both.

My 99 Silverado has been leaking at the tailshaft extension housing since I swapped that transmission. I hate oil leaks. So today I went and bought a seal replacement. USPS was supposed to deliver my crankshaft seal for our 3.6 Pentastar minivan that's getting a wobbling harmonic balancer replacement...but of course, they are late. So I decided to paint my driveshaft to waste time... SMH
