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

Ok. Thanks. I have some long rifle q-tips that I use for all kinds of detail work.
I wasn’t sure if pipe cleaners would “shed” while using them on something like that.

I wouldn't use q-tips, pipe cleaners wont shed anything a q-tip could leave material behind

Sorry. That’s what I was getting at regarding shedding material. The q-tips work great for a lot of things, but I didn’t want to use them for that specific project and for the same reason, I had reservations about pipe cleaners as well.

Ordered an oem valve cover.
@iamdub I saw that same seller had another for 43$ on a different ad.
Also listed it on amazon for something like $53

Pictures don't look right to me, Looked sorta generic and like those i see on amazon that are china made.
I'm sure there is probably no difference, but i just paid $70 for one from a seller in AZ that I know sends me actual GM parts...

And i made a little temporary wideband mount from wire...

I trimmed mine on my 02 with Belltech drop spindles ,it wasn't an issue. Why do you think you won't be able to remove the nuts afterward? Just remove them, they'll clean the threads as they come off. You pretty much have to in order to use drop spindles. Unless I'm misunderstanding you.

I tried to remove the uca bolt from the spindle, all the nut did was spin with the stud. The stock bolt has a hex key In the middle to hold the bolt in place as you back out the nut. Once u cut the bolt down to what it tells u you have no way of holding the stud from spinning with the nut.

What about using a pry bar to put pressure on the stud to keep it from spinning?

Does any of the stud protrude out past the nut? If so, slot it with a dremel or angle grinder with cutoff wheel

I love anything stealthy.

True. I'd love to quiet it down, but I don't have a bunch of $$ for trial n' error. It's hard to creep around

No cats? Just cram as much muffler as you can under there. Gonna need at least 30" to get it "half-assed normal". I have 40" (22"+18", butted together) and it's about all that can fit. It's pretty tame, but still meaty when idling and cruising. She barks when you step on her, though.
