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

[Rocket Man]

Added LED cubes for foglights and put a bottle opener on the bumper because college.View attachment 71956View attachment 71957 View attachment 71958

Is that a visor or just a LED lightbar over the windshield?

Lightbar

I finally drove it after doing the shocks, it still wallows on the highway when I hit a bump or dip. I think it handles worse now. When I say wallow, I mean it goes side to side a little after hitting a dip. To me it kind of feels like when the idler or pitman arm is bad. Both of them we're changed in 2012. I still have to dodo my bounce stops, but I really don't think that's going to fix my problem. Any opinions?

Heh, you said dodo.

I would recommend replacing your soft ZW7 rear springs if the jounce stops don’t fix the issue. Since you removed the Nivomat shocks that help support the vehicle in the rear it can change the ride quality. Hopefully the jounce stops will .

What if I put the Nivomat shocks in the rear with the kyb's in the front? Too much of a difference you think?

When I purchased my '01 Tahoe it had Nivomat shocks in the rear and Monroe Reflex shocks in the front and it rode smooth. It was a little too smooth for me, so I did the ZW7 delete. But it would be easy to put the Nivomats back in to see if that helps your ride quality issue. The jounce stops should help too.

Just came today. Of course it's going to snow all night tonight!
Damn you @Fosscore for keeping all that sunshine to yourself!

Oh, I'm working on this too.

Notice-no hole.

As of right now I have bilstein 5100s in the front and nivomats in the rear on my 04. It rides better than the stock fronts I took off. I will be adding the z71 springs to rear soon for a little more height when towing our travel trailer. I haven't decided if I'm going to replace the rear shocks yet or not.

I fixed the 2nd row seat back latches (and wrote a guide in the tech section), upgraded my headlights to Denali projectors, and installed LED reverse lights.

I feel like I was productive today.

Probably going to ride stiff as hell unloaded..should tow great though.

After putting in my resistors for my rear led's, cruise works again! Truck still rides like a$$! Making a thread on it.

Installed my air dam aka snowplow. Funny a light snow flurry started and not something we see often in North Texas..I had to use trim screws to keep it in place and bolted down the ends since my truck didn't have slots or screw holes. Pleased with results.

Will start looking around for led fogs..I hope the smoked lense won't be a problem..I want led headlights but haven't seen anything I really like yet.

I have these and they're pretty bright at night.

Technically this isn't anything I did to the Hoe, but they're for it.

Yep, tried that too. I messed around over 3 hours total one day and after 2 hours the next day I gave up. Wasted a half gallon of fluid too and never got past the rear brakes. The old fashioned way with a hose submerged in fluid worked and I was done in a half hour total.

Well you talked me out of it, before I tried. Gonna return the bleeder, and make my own with a garden sprayer. Already have the parts. I'll post some pics when I get it built tonight.

Everyone seemed to have good luck with that hf bleeder. I have one in the garage I haven't used yet. Hopefully I don't have the same problems.

Interested in seeing this! Great idea

Over the past few weeks... right rocker replaced and both rhino-lined, TBSS airbag, "replace liftgate fuse" message issue handled and installed factory fogs and new pigtails wired up. The ol' girl has been keeping me busy haha

I bought a 50 piece for myself on black Friday. Couldn't pass up the deal. Wife was only mad for a little bit lol. She got over it.
I literally don't own any open end wrenches. Lost them in the move.
