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

[73impala]

Not too far from my old house off glades road in Boca. Stay safe brother!

Thanks man you too!

 

[Countryboy07]

Eh, I may have to. I never have any time tho. Side note: it smokes the 22's. Just sayin...
Juvenile, but still fun!

Videos or it didn't happen!

I had too small of a wire going to my driver front speaker, so it kept going out. I fixed that, and replaced my still-stock rear speakers with some aftermarket ones I had laying around. Sounds SO much better. Still need to figure out my sub though.

Didn't do much just got it up close to help protect from the storm

I like the black Z71 style air dam. I have the same setup. Same billet grill and billet bowtie too. Lol

Went to put in some new LEDs inside and in the puddle lights. And was surprised that my driver was festoon as is should and my passenger was completely different. Replaced it with a 6 led 194

Wth weird. Well whatever works I guess lol. Should put cob 194s in there
. Be stupid bright.

What do you do for paint correction?

Wet sand and heavy duty compound. Clay bar is just debris removal

Got the new HID kit from @Vanquish Auto installed a couple of nights ago.

They are noticeably brighter than the cheap HID kit I used before.

The new ballast also feels much heavier than the old. Reassuringly so.

Old HIDs:

And here is a slightly darker version of the last photo where you can see the pattern just a little better:

Put on the chrome Denali handles from @fresh350. They look great with my silver speaker grilles.

Love the Denali handles. I just noticed your door panels aren't carpeted in the bottom area like mine. I had redone them with matching material when I replaced my carpet and just reglued them yesterday because I didn't use enough spray glue first time around.

I've never seen lower panels uncarpeted.

I installed my differential girdle. Or should I say I had my neighbor finish installing it after nearly destroying my fractured shoulder attempting it yesterday. Actually I just dislocated it but it felt like I nearly destroyed it. RTV needs trimming but that will have to wait. BTW, if anyone wants to install a girdle but are having issues with clearance due to the panhard bar, the QA1 panhard curves out far enough to install pretty much any of the girdles out there.

why get a girdle when you have that hefty diff cover on?

Never even thought of this... A Z71 thing, maybe? The sail panels are different colors from driver (dark charcoal) to passenger (gray), too.

That's the girdle. It has studs with pads on the ends that torque against the center of the bearing caps inside the differential to strengthen them. If you look at the bearing caps you'll see why they need this.

Seen them in Silverados and Sierras, but yea not suvs

Replaced and relocated my aux backup LED pods. I used to have the slim 18w pod mounted directly underneath the bumper, but still visible. It worked, but I never loved having the pod visible all the time. Here's what I got now, used factory holes, an L-bracket and some stainless hardware.

Normal standing height:

Crouched down:

And on:

I think I'm going to like it a lot better, but I might need to drop them down an inch or two to the next hole in the L-bracket if I don't like the light pattern at night or if the bumper cuts off the beam too low.

Man your rig is so clean, love it.

Thanks man, I appreciate it. "Clean" is exactly what I'm going for.

Had a bunch of time off today, so I got some more stuff done. 3 coats of bedliner on my faded, rusted nerf bars. Maybe I can get a few more years out them before I have to replace.

Before:

After:

Also re-plastidipped my Esky roof rack end caps and topped with Glossifier:

All put back together:

Now I just need to restore the plastic steps with the same stuff I used on the valence and tires. Renew/Protect Blak, Gloz, and Satn. Awesome stuff.

 

[MadDogDelpho]

Just bought Timken hubs, a new socket to do the job, and new brake pads. My wallet hurts.
