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

[Sparksalot]

@Sparksalot I was pretty bummed, parked at work with 189,999 miles and then started driving home after work and forgot all about it until it was too late.

I’ve done it too. Definitely a bummer.

Replaced the passenger side mirror. The was an unfortunate incident with the original and the corner of my house. $40 on eBay for the new one.

Mirror replacement step 1, disassemble the door…

Been out of town back and forth from Salt Lake a decided a quick wash was in order.

I think I fixed intermittent electrical gremlins that started a day or two ago (radio didn't turn on a couple of times without a key cycle, couple of random door locks while driving, Service Trailer Brake System once). I was going to find ALL the grounds and clean them, but is was 90 degrees out, so I found three of the most likely culprits on the under chassis and cleaned and reinstalled them. (ALWAYS disconnect the negative battery cable when you are disconnecting grounds or even hots - some sensitive or poorly designed electrical components can be damaged if they the get an imbalanced ground). They were not TOO bad but definitely some corrosion, maybe as you would expect after 11 years. But I know they are good now. I have had a couple of restarts since and some driving with no issues. Fingers crossed. No pics, it WAS 90 degrees out.
ALSO I decided that my 1Mitchel subscription sucks. I should be able to easily type in "electrical ground locations", it should find the thread, then I should be able to print the thread with a couple of clicks. NOT a bunch of open print close next open print close next etc. Or if anybody knows how to do so please tell me.

At I figure 200,000 is the one I should shoot for. My calculations suggest I will hit 200,000 in 2025

Been getting lucky on deals lately. 28’s for $700. One rim is cracked. Really sucks they don’t fit. The top of the fender is sitting on the tire. 275/25/28’s

in case anyone is considering HID's these are very good quality ballast's, which can be hard to find in a market full of cheap garbage.
I am not associated with the seller in any manner, just thought I would share info. They are in china so expect around 3-4 weeks delivery time.
paired with some off the shelf relays and bulbs of your choice they should work well.

Driver's outer CV boot was nicked by something (probably that dummy with a sawzall cutting old swaybar links) and spraying grease everywhere.

Fun job.

You actually just changed the boot? I heard they're not fun to put on. Wouldn't it had been easier to just swap in another axle? I know the boot way is cheaper tho. Just curious.
