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

Damn! Those are awesome…

Loho’s headlights

What is a Loho headlight ?

I am guessing it is some LED replacement lamp / bulb for the standard factory headlights ?

My '07 SLT still has all the original front factory lamps installed ( headlights - turn signals etc etc )

I am aware that some crazy bumper removal and other hassles may be required to change them out when / if any fail.

So I am planning to replace all upfront with LED lites at once so I never have to deal with ever again.

even with the LED you still need to pull the bumper cover to get the clearance needed to install the lights. also not all LEDs will clear the radiator support. and the DRL sockets tend to burn thru LEDs very often.

I thought about just having mine repainted. Think you just made up my mind! How hard are they to get off?

Not bad, but since you are taking them off, get the Gruven Door Handle Inserts You will thanks me!

I’ve had a leaking seal at the output shaft of the front diff since I bought it. Driver’s side. How hard is that seal to replace? Can it be done in place?

That is a fairly easy repair. You will need to unbolt the axle from the flange and swing the axle out of the way. Then that stub shaft with the flange pulls out. I would use a GM seal on that and take a look at the bearing that shaft rides in when you have the seal out.

EDIT: I removed some incorrect information.

Finally got around to this today, went fairly easily just as George (and others) said. The only difficult part is pulling the drive flange and stub shaft out of the diff. That takes a LOT of force. I used an assortment of wedges behind it and running bolts through the flange to persuade it. No room for a slide hammer with the spindle and everything else in place.

Tossed a new battery in it today. Guessing the Bosch in it was maybe from 2018??? It’s not marked in any way. Bought a Continental battery from my trusted local parts guys for $136 and some change. Research says these guys are partnered with Stryten Manufacturing. Stryten is operating the old Exide plant in Salina KS.

Edited to remove excess information.

Edited: Found an SDS forn the battery by JCI.
