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

[07Burb]

We do but come April or May we're inside with the air on 68 waiting for November to work on our cars again!

I don't like the extreme heat (we get that here too) but I'll work in the extreme heat and humidity before I freeze my butt off working outside for hours in freezing temps. Even if it got up to 40* I'd be happy but we can't even break the 32* mark here the last couple months.

Didn't get much done this week.. had some house Mod's to take care of... fixing other peoples mistakes....(see pic, nice wiring, still not sure how they managed to even get them wired I could barely reach them, right under a joist)

oh and my cheap switchback died/half of it....the white flaked out.


Although I did get the Tighten Fuel Cap message today(followed by the Check Engine Light), so I borrowed our work scan tool to reset it again just so I could have my remote start.
Found I had a few codes stored, although I hadn't had any CEL for them.
P0719 (old code, put in new brake switch)
P0521 (old code, oil pressure)
P0455 (pesky evap code, still ironing it out)
P0340 (crank sensor code... new to me, will watch didn't have CEL from this)
and P1682... (ignition switch... haven't had any issues, will watch to see if this returns)

yeehaw driveability hasn't changed. Gonna watch for the P1682 and 0340.

Guess it's time to get a scan tool... really can't stomach the coin for a tech2 or tech2 clone yet.

The taillights I'm currently running are probably 3 or 4 years old now. Long story short, one of the assemblies is starting to flake out on me so I've ordered some new tails. Figured I'd give these a try. Should be here by the end of the week

Got the level kit from CCM the other day. Like 07Burb, temps just not accommodating to getting it done. I may hold off for a bit anyway until I figure out wheels and tires and shocks. Things may take a turn only because I'm probably having back surgery here in the near future.

I realized I was an idiot today.

I replaced the rear window wiper blade awhile ago and found the replacement was meh. I figured maybe the spring was bad and just wasnt making good contact..........welllllll.......i noticed today that blade actually had this little plastic protector on it, that i never took off. Durrrrrrr.

I also spent some time today to try and figure out how to mount the CB antenna I bought. It was a firestick with a side mount, thinking that I would have easy access via the rear plastic panels, I was wrong. I'm refitting things, so I'll use the popular front hood mounts instead.

You didn't turn the rear wiper on and scratch the window--did you?

This post rocks. How many times do we do some dumb truck stuff, but no one cares or is interested.

So we come here to drop it on the forum to guys who have done something just as durrrrr....we all have a jab and laugh.

Thx for sharing. I had a good chuckle.

It's definitely one of the most fun (and addictive) power adders. Maybe it's having grown up on video games, but being able to just hit a button for more HP makes my inner kid giggle. LOL

Be careful. Make sure you got the low expansion kind if you haven't used that stuff before. It can tear you a new one (literally). Dangerous stuff if you've never worked with it before. Just a heads up. If you know what you're doing then just ignore the hell out of me.

Mind posting pics once installed? Mine ended up having a gap along the top edge. I used some foam gasket to fill it in and you cant even tell it's there now.

Interesting! I'll definitely keep you posted on how mine fit. I won't be happy if mine have that big gap but I'll definitely use a similar approach that you used if mine does turn out that way.

The big brown truck should be dropping these off today, this weekend's tinkering project.
