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

Yeah the Tahoe version looks like hot garbage. The Ubar makes the light not look dated.

I saw some Ubar lights on a NBS Silverado they look pretty sick but not as good as those Denali ones

I swear I've seen those headlights on a Tahoe. I think I saw it advertised on cl, but I never contacted the seller.

Picked up a NOS chrome Escalade inner door handle off EBay for cheap

3 trucks washed and 2 dried tonight. 0 time to detail as my boy has been down hard core with the flu since Friday and I did a daddy/daughter day after lacrosse practice yesterday.

Thankfully he is feeling a bit better today, but no school tomorrow. He was so fevered up last night, that he was either speaking gibberish or staring off in space when he was awake. Poor bugger.

Edit: Some mod money dedicated to these sweet new cleats. Guaranteed to make her run faster like the “silent beast” her coach referred to her as. Lol

I'm convinced that they've literally stopped making aftermarket headlights for ours since 2005

Anybody have those adjustable ball joints that give you extra range to adjust camber. I tried getting mine aligned and he said that on both sides the UCA bolts are so rusted that they are frozen and have to be cut off. I tried myself to see if I could get them loose but an impact gun at 650 ft-lbs of torque won't even budge it. So don't feel like paying to have the UCAs replaced so wondering if those ball joints are good. They seem a little sketchy, but moog makes a set so they could be ok? If I do get some I'm only getting the ones by moog

There's an example of them if you got lost throughout my awful attempt of explaining

500 mi. RT this weekend. Truck ran great. Not so much as a hiccup.

I have heard success stories with those and no complaints im aware of. However id replace the rusty ass ucas. Would be easy to cut the bolts off.

Awesome cleats! My 10yo is in a travel softball league and it takes up a ton of time and $.

My poor boy was sick last week too with that nasty flu.

Thx man. Yeah he broke his fever yesterday and life returned to his eyes. No school today. Resting only.

She had two choices and I’m glad she went with these cleats. Not many options for girls in pink and in person to try on.

We pulled the boring black laces (in lieu of a truck mod lol for only $2.49) and put the pink ones in together. She loves them. Winning!!

got the motor pulled from the donor yesterday.

im tired lol.

I can move one of the camber bolts without loosening the nut but it will eventually go back to where it was. Would new UCAs and bolts fix that problem

You just need new bolts it sounds like. they are cheap.

If that's all I need then I'm buying them today

I have not seen it obviously and a mechanic could make that decision for you better then i.

Make sure the ball joint and uca bushings are in good shape. No sense paying labor to change the camber bolts now and replacing a uca in a couple months since youll have to do the exact same amount of work

I can replace it all myself because i am going to a trade school to be a diesel mechanic and I would be able to use the shop and have my instructor help me out. I might as well buy, UCAs with pre pressed bjs, new cam bolts, and bushings and do it all at once. Wouldn't hurt considering they are 15 years old with 247k miles on them

They are massively overdue then! Yeah you can definitely do the job np.

I replaced mine in my driveway in about an hour (rust free tg) and im just a shadetree with cheapo tools.

If only mine was rust free

Heat and penetrating lube plus impacts are your friend. You said you used a 650 rattle gun and couldnt get it off? Crazy, Id think youd twist bolt off with something that powerful lol. I have a 350 cordless 1/2 impact that has not let me down yet.

If your ucas are that old you should probably consider replacing a lot of stuff up there. Lca bushings and ball joints are cheap. Change em if youve got the shop and labor is free. Check sway bar links. Check your tie rods.

Luckily parts are cheap on these trucks.
