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

I use a thin film of assembly lube or syl glyde when I install my valves. Helps them pop into place easier. Even dish soap will work.

^^^ This. Nothing like rim sealer, just a good lubricant that's compatible with the stem material. A little syl-glide or dish soap would be my choice.

I use Dawn to install valve stems or any other rubber parts, just need to help them pop into place.

Cool, so no sealant just lube.

I have this in my tool box and use it on O-rings, like on injectors. It's water based and doesn't mess with anything.

Convenient for garage rendezvous when you sneak away from the kids.

Also useful for when perfectly planned repairs go south on you! BOHICA!

This was me today diving under the front of the Hoe to replace a ripped boot on the steering rack and found out they sent me the wrong damn ones.

a couple years ago I did a failed attempt at epoxying the wood trim back on the steering wheel, it held for the most part but this summer it actually came completely loose but would "stay on" so last night I gorilla glued it, it appears to have worked well and as gorilla glue likes to do it expands even though I only used a tiny bit, I just used a little tool and cleaned up the seam. I have a brand new wheel to put on without wood trim but saving that for future use.

GM OE - 15254057

ACDelco Professional/Gold - 45A1135 or 19326076

The OE and ACDelco in this instance are indeed different in quality.

Yeah I'm more confident with the looks of the OE one, ordering it now.

I hated my Denali wood wheel. It wasn't separating, but the wood wouldn't heat, just the leather side would, and the wood would stay cold, lol.

I changed that thing out within the first year I owned it. The non-wood wheel feels thicker and so much better and keeps my hands warm in the winter... Lol
