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

[JochenWoern]

Have one at home. Just ran out of time on my lunch.

Boy, someone must be desperate to do this on the lunch break.

Got a 6 month old at home. Don't get much free time there. Been wanting to do this since last July when I bought it.

Finally got '00 back and the trans feels great in it the shifts are very good it took longer than what it should but there were a couple things he found during the teardown that had to be done.

Glad it is all back together and that you are happy.

Yeah the torque converter was all to hell the shop that put the engine in used bolts that were to long so they cut them and they were still to long so it was pushing on the converter so the bolt deal pretty much ruined the torque converter but it now has oem factory torque converter bolts in it, the singer is what let go in it it didnt break like most of them but it spun all the teeth off for the gear. There were a couple other things too but it was the original 308,000 mile 4l60e trans.

Guess at 308k miles having the original tranny, one can not complain!

Just finished my suspension. For 180k it still rode very smooth, but I could tell that it was worn. It's complete night/day difference.

List includes:
Moog UCA/LCA w/ ball joints
Moog Inner/Outer tie rods
Moog Pitman/ Idler arm
Moog Sway Bar link front/rear
Timken wheel bearings
Dorman steering shaft
Bilstein 5100s all 4 corners
Bilstein springs in the rear

And I did a new water pump the other day.

I took it on some county roads with huge pot holes, washboard, dips and just general ****** roads and the 5100s soaked everything up with ease. I am EXTREMELY happy with the ride and how well they handled definitely recommend them. My poor nnbs sounds like it is gonna roll over and die on those roads but my nbs just laughed at them.

Nice day with 68 degrees today in Northern Cali, .... rolled the windows down while driving home and am hearing the all so familiar clacking sound of a rock stuck in the tire.

Came home and want to remove the rock out of the tire tread, NO SUCH LUCK. No clue where I picked up this bolt but when I tried to pull it out the air was already hissing at me.

I am at America's Tire Company getting it fixed.

That sucks. But brings up the question "plug vs patch".

I leave that up to the Pros, in the hopes they will fix it right!
