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

[pwtr02ss]

Sure thing. But, the only way it's not going in my '08 is if I sell or total it or if I die or am otherwise incapacitated.

I just wanted to get first in line. I could go ahead and get one but then I have to store it somewhere. I could sell or total the avalanche so I don't want a paper weight that size hanging around

My last full regular day of work was yesterday. I am going to replace the seal at the oil cooler take off. It's weeping a little, I tried tightening the bolts a little but to no avail. It doesn't really need replaced but I am going to do it anyway. Does anyone have an opinion over the OEM or Felpro? I am also going to replace the driver's side glass and regulator. The glass has a couple of minor scratches and it rattles a bit. The scratches may be from when the previous owners were locked out or possibly someone tried to break in. That doesn't really need replaced either but I am going to do that anyway I think.
At 111,000 miles is there anything else I may want to do even though it may not need it?

I’ve used both and found the fel pro design harder to get to seal, requiring more torque than the bolts could withstand. Ended up having to put a helicoil in one of the holes, and used an OEM seal. No more leaks. Definitely use a torque wrench on those.

flush all fluids, including power steering, brake, differentials, transfer case, coolant, transmission.
all 4 02 sensors need to be done (they are rated for 100k)
plugs & wires
inspect everything else, shocks, bushings, hubs, calipers, tie rods, control arms, ball joints, etc

Replaced the seals for the power steering lines at the rack. Used gm instead of gates this time. No leaks in the 10 minutes I let it idle while cycling the wheels a few times. Hopefully that's resolved

Engine out, and I pulled the crank.
The thrust bearing is fine this time around!
w00t w00t!
Of course, it's still getting a new crank...

Doing a full tear down for inspection and cleaning...

Mainly I want to check the cam bearings to be sure no damage in case some metal bypassed the filter...
And i don't trust the machine shop I used, so i need to really look at the one rod bushing that had some damage.

I wish i got a picture when the pan was still on, but this thing looks massive with those valve cover spacers on there...



I'm also disappointed that the clearcoat on the block yellowed so badly.

I also found something amazing.
Service position for the hood!!

Not sure why I waited so long to change the interior lights to LED... I also got a Pioneer stereo that I’ll try to swap in this week. Tired of staring at those chipped buttons, and bluetooth will be cool

Yeah the factory stereos leave a lot to be desired. I got one with wireless CarPlay that I really like. So convenient, my phone stays in my pocket.

PO installed a Pioneer unit with Nav and Bluetooth in the hoemare.
I love it.

Wife wants one for her car.
So, she got a subscription to XM radio while she waits for me to sort the hoemare.


Do you have the rear entertainment setup?
She has it in her car + Bose like the hoemare has.

When you do the install, I would love to see a thread on it.

I do not have the rear entertainment setup. I found this video and I’m basically doing what he did minus the rear stuff. Adding in a backup camera too. I might do a thread but I suck at posting here lol
