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

[SWSS]

Little clay bar work prior to the rain. Makes a dang nice 10 footer I think!
Hoping to have the lift installed January. Life keeps getting in the way...

I'm tired of the "wood" trim piece on my steering wheel squirming around when I grip the wheel. I want to swap the wheel for the non-wood, heated one. But my allowance is being spent elsewhere this month. So today I decided to try re-gluing it.

After asking here (with no response) and doing a bit of research, I decided to try contact cement. I was hoping for a less messy solution. But I masked off the leather and held a drop cloth over the steering wheel hub. I was able to keep the mess to a minimum.

I'm letting it cure overnight. I'll let everyone know how it worked.

Is truck of the year a photo or popularity contest?

I straight up super glued mine. Wasn't nearly as messy as I thought it would be. It has been holding for a few years in temperatures from -40 all the way to 120.

Wheel bearing... Happy New year!
yup I'm pretty sure I used all those tools(including the sledge). Actually physically easier than the oil pressure switch I did recently.

Had no left over parts so that's a success!

I had air tools on my Xmas list... I didn't get any.

This guy on YouTube had the best "how to" I could find. only thing I did differently was remove the caliper as a whole, no reason to disassemble it unless you are doing brakes at the same time.

Not today, but last night I was walking out of Walmart and used the remote start when about halfway to the Denali. When I got closer there was a cart pusher worker going by me and asked what I had in that thing! I guess he heard it start up and it does have a pretty good/loud growl to the exhaust note, I can usually hear it start from across a lot.

I told him 6.2 liter

LOL, I can always hear mine just about anywhere

Looked at her and did the bi-weekly auto start. These realized inhave an exhaust leak. I guess I'll be ordering a band clamp. Exhaust Hanger rusted/ripped off.

Same here. I think the GM 6.2L is one of the best sounding stock exhausts on the planet. Love mine every time I start it.

The contact cement worked. It's only been one day. But I think it'll last.

While slowing to avoid the biggest pothole known to man, I was rear ended by a non insurance having, hitnrunner.

I can't stand people who won't take responsibility for themselves.

Sometimes my exhaust crackles a little bit after startup when it settles down to idle, and hearing that echoing through the parking garage first thing in the morning almost makes me forget about my horribly cracked dash.

Stuff like this makes me want to buy a dashcam. Very sorry man

Haven't been on here much for work, vacation and fixing stuff on the truck. Since December 20th I've ..

1) Replaced CVs and Hubs
2) Transmission filter, full drain & flush
3) Fix broken bolts on driver side exhaust manifold
4) Oil pressure sensor (might have been a casualty of the welding in #3)

Those last three were since Christmas and I still have a driver O2 sensor with a bad heater circuit for which I'm waiting on parts.

So yeah, been friggin busy.

that sucks

Alright so I just scored what I think is a sweet deal on an OEM fuel filler door. I bought my truck with this ugly dealer-installed billet fuel door and have been searching for a color-matched OEM one for some time now. Found one on Ebay after some extensive searching for $20 + $15 to ship, whereas other ones are $50 or more. It's got a little scratch on it but nothing that can't be fixed with some touch-up paint. Can't wait to swap the old one out.

 

[CrashTestDummy]

Getting the cracked windshield replaced today. You get no respect in a PPV with a cracked windshield.

....and discovered that the interior lights now do not come on. They will if you turn them on from the dash switch, but if you have it set to other than 'full on', we get nothing. I guess I need to replace the dome light controller.

Really burns my bacon.

Agreed. I'm definitely going to be looking into one. Especially around these parts.

that sucks

Yes. It does indeed suck. Fortunately, my insurance was on the ball today and I'm in a rental. We'll see how long I'm without her.

Who do you have insurance through? I have had terrible luck with insurance companies.
