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

[al2fast]

More like this weekend...hacked the metal on my front fenders and trimmed the plastic on the running boards to clear the new wheels and tires. Have to figure out how to fill the running boards, they were hollow. Thinking about some black silicone. Got some shine on the new tires. Replaced air ride compressor. Then had to dick with the A/C, driver side was hot air only and passenger and rear were ice cold after battery disconnect for compressor install. Disconnected battery again, let sit for a few minutes, reconnected, put key to on and let it sit for a couple mins for the dumb thing to "re-learn"? Anyways it worked, maybe I got lucky. Got the badges off the back gate too.

Goes to stealership on Tuesday to have tires rebalanced so they don't vibrate on the highway and straighten out my steering wheel after the alignment so I don't have to turn left to go straight. To think they were the only ones that could balance my last rims and tires successfully. How fing hard is it?? Good Lord I learned how to do that when I was 15.

Put old rims and tires on Craigslist today too. Come on fireworks money!!!

Wanted to leave it like this:

installed ARH headers. Ran into a problem. Have to remove Oil dip stick tube so you can get pass header out. Well my tube snapped at where it goes into the block. Almost had it out but then it slipped and fell into the pan. So had to order the Tube, Tomorrow is a oil change and try to fish out using a flex magbet

Remembered iSimple Connect reset button.

After cleaning all my ground locations, checking BCM connections and general disappointment I pulled the iSimple out and everything went back to normal. Now I'm hooked up with their tech support to get it fixed/replaced/refunded. Pray for me.

Cleaning the k&n air filter and mass air flow sensor.

new heavy duty rotors and pads on the front. Gotta do the rear next. Must be where the issue is, getting a loping sensation when braking. Like the rotor is warped. Thought it was on the front but, still getting it after new rotors and pads. rear pads are almost worn down anyway so, either way they've got to be replaced.

Oh, and I gave her another bath.

I'm beginning to think that the pulsing sensation during braking may have more to do with improper/insufficient brake bedding versus warping, as I have this issue now after just getting front brakes done a week ago.

I've never bedded brakes on any vehicle after replacing them. And I've never had this pulsing sensation on any of them. I guess I'll know after I replace the rear. Hopefully it's not a more serious issue like malfunctioning ABS

I've never bed-in brakes before, either, but some swear by it whenever replacing brakes.
Here's a link to the procedure:

Turns out my rear differential was cracked from my rear end collision. New rear axle arrived and was installed today, back to a different paint shop to fix the horrific orange peel from the ****** collision repair paint job. Going to try and shave rear wiper off since they are now repainting the entire lift gate

I have resurfaced rotors right out of the box before. Also check your pads and sand them a little. You may have accidentally got grease or shim lube on the pads and when they get super hot from braking it becomes very sticky to the point you can feel a pulsation when braking
