What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[pnwdan]

Had a remote start put in yesterday. While i could have done it, it was much easier to drop the truck off and go have lunch while it was getting done. So far I love it. Heats the seats and everything. 3000 foot range with confirmation too.

So i put my 17s back on, didnt like the way the 22s felt, rode like shit, maybe they are not balanced correctly or maybe its just our ****** roads, anyway might sell them and get some meats for my 17s for winter since they still have the tpms sensors in them and maybe check out some other options when spring comes. And since i had the 22s on with no sensors the dic message came up and i was hitting the button, but now my 17s are back on, i unplugged the battery but now all the pressure says 0. Going to have to figure this out, any help appreciated.

i definitely like the stance of your truck in your avatar photo. what size spacers do you have?

I really got kinda paranoid about spacers when I read a bunch about them wearing out your front end components much faster.

I have some 2" wheel spacers I'm not running anymore. Need gone. PM if interested.

Sunday put Wagner coated rotors and thermoquiet pads on the front.

Today, yanked out the total crap Dorman steering bearing that i put in last week and replaced it with an GM one. Was also able to get the new steering sensor on. No more clunk or bouncing of the wheel with those in combination with the lower & upper ISS I put in last week.

Now on to bigger things because I still have something wonky with the front end. Might do a new steering gear and pitman/idler. Either that or new upper control arms.

Installed AC Delco plugs, wires, and OEM boot shields, runs so much better, 160k miles think it's time for new coil packs?

They're 2". As for the neg of them, I did notice that my front end didn't seem as tight before the spacers. But I realize that there is more strain on everything including what my cranked keys are doing to it. But I'm of the mindset of those parts are meant to be replaced eventually anyway, I'm just gonna upgrade everything to Rare Parts or Cognito as they wear out.

Friday the brakes got a quick bleed and then flushed the PS/hydro boost system. Finally have decent pedal feel

GM truck noob here, what is hydro boost system?

Some gm models (couldn't tell you which or what years) utilize a brake booster that is pressurized by the power steering pump instead of the typical vacuum booster.

Check for a hose running from the power steering pump up to just behind the master cylinder. That's hydro boost

probably not needed. They don't really wear out. Either they work or they dont. No real performance gain for aftermarket high output units either, unlike with the older trucks that dont have COP.

Before installing more things (though pitman/idler isnt a bad idea) try tightening the box and the wheel.

Dealers recommend ISS and sometimes it is this:

Nice garage!

Thanks

Wow , only like $200k sitting on the other side of your tahoe there.
Truck looking good as always, ever thought about painting that grey valance? blak? red?

I thought about colormatching it but I've been hesitant because it does see unplowed roads in the winter time.

We do like our toys, although we have started storing some of our neighbors vehicles as well.

roughly 162k mi, really liking this esky cluster
