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

[Bigkevschopshop]

I had some silicone based brake grease that I was going to use but did some quick googling during the install and what I saw said not to use it. I’m regretting that now, but it does sound a little like the squeak is coming from the rear end rather than the front. Maybe I’ll get around to replacing those bushings as well.

Yeah .... Directions will piss you off.... Here is a link to what I use... I bought a cheapo grease gun to load this in, you can also buy this in a tub if you don't want to dick with it...

My tires are close to showing the cord. So I started prepping two of my new-to-me 22s for getting the minor curb rash repaired. They're OEM Escalade Platinum edition wheels. I hadn't taken a good look at them since I bought them. I was surprised to find that they're made in China.

It's never simple. Longish story. But I'm probably going to have all four wheels refinished. I need help picking a color now. This isn't the place for it, so I made a new thread:

Messing with the Tech2 this afternoon. Looked at the air suspension system and compressor stuff.

When doing the ALC relearn (or whatever it's called), it says to remove all unnecessary weight from vehicle and make sure it's on level ground. Is the driver unnecessary weight?

Basically, when doing this should you be sitting inside the vehicle or outside when the calibration is done?

I wonder if having the 3rd row seats in or out would make any difference in it not during calibration.

When I do mine I just run the cable out the window and stand beside the truck while doing it, only take a couple minutes, I think all it really does is release all the air from the pump and takes a static reading from the 4 level sensors to use as a constant reference for the rear air shocks and perhaps for the dampners

maybe I leave my 100+lbs subwoofer box in the back and the seats, reason being they are always in there anyway

I believe that would be deemed necessary weight in your case.

yessir!

Agreed. Should be calibrated for whatever weight is normally in the vehicle.

Related: does your guys’ air suspension compressor kick on every time you start the vehicle? I literally never hear mine. And I’ve got realitivly new rear air shocks.

Is the driver unnecessary weight?

According to Elon Musk, the driver is not necessary!
