What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

These are what my pads look like. The other ones don’t fit my caliper brackets.

The ones with the holes- possibly for the drag reduction clips ("spreader springs")?

hmm, ok after a little digging around it looks like there was some weird stuff going on design wise from 05-08, those castings look smaller, it looks like you could likely easily upgrade to later model calipers if they started leaking or something later on down the road

the castings they fit look smaller, from 05-08 there were some mixed castings numbers 2xx-2xx & 3xx-3xx, and then regular castings all in the same time period

it appears the knuckle is the same on all the 07-14 suv's so you would be able to change the calipers to a later model
also appears (some?) of the 07 pickups used the same knuckle but it changed in 08, maybe it has something to do with the 07 pickups being the old body style
not the first time gm has done some weird stuff during a changeover.....

Speaking of differences, I have one of @kbuskill's old hubs. I couldn't fit any of the OEM wheels I tried onto it, but they fit perfectly on my Hoe. I had to grind down the part that slips through the hub bore on the wheel.

ya I am glad I went with my 12 I did a bit of researching parts compatibility before I decided which would have the most parts available later on down the road I tend to keep vehicles for a long time, just seemed like 10 & later had more compatible parts

But is there really any difference? The exact same color will have different names between being on a Chevrolet or on a GMC or Cadillac, Buick, SAAB, etc. I wanna say they even change the name between year models of the same brand.

Yeah, GM does that stuff a lot, but apparently there is a difference between Arctic and Summit/Olympic. Might not notice unless you see them side by side. Here’s a pic I found. The Camaro closer to the camera is summit apparently. But I swear mine looks more like the vette here. Oh well I give up

I do see calipers in my future. So what would be needed to update to the larger pads?
