My neighbors/wife backed into the burb a couple of weeks ago while it was parked on the street. Ya know, because its not noticable or anything...anyhow, drove it to work today and took it to a body shop to get (another) quote and schedule the repair. Also getting some of the wheel well cancer that's developing sanded down and painted.

Just finished installing the Monroe MA830 Air Shocks. My truck had the original ten-year old shocks that looked horrible. Took about an hour. Garage floor to rear fender bottom is 37.25”. 20-psi gives me that back. I’ll be curious to how this will hold up trailering.
I paid $44.57 for the pair (Amazon) plus $18 for the AK29 tubing kit from my local AutoValue.

So after replacing the window regulators, now my switches are ******. Might have been the problem all along. Replaced both rear switches and they worked for a bit. Then the front switches rear windows stopped working.
Just replaced the switch with a brand new oem switch. Thoughts? Do these need reprogrammed at the stealership?

Figured. Well, I took apart my old switch, cleaned all the contacts and still nothing. So, I tested one of the old window regulators. Now it works. So new switches in rear, cleaned the contacts on the old switch, and put the old regulator back in on the passengers side rear.you need a tech2 to test them
Sadly, not worth me trying to ship back a $35 window regulator. Unless they just want to credit me and I toss the new one.
Tried both of the old regulators and they worked with the new switches in the back. So it has to be the motor on the new window regulator I bought.
Well, at least my window goes up all the way..........for now [emoji849]

I think the switch modules have load-sensing circuitry that rely on feedback from the motors. A defective and/or sub-par aftermarket motor might draw more amperage than the OEM motor, triggering the "breaker" circuitry in the switch module.

.Well to continue from the previous cleaning. Finally got the wifey wagon ceramic coated and paint correction done.

I could hear a "tick" in the switch, but no movement. [emoji1745] Well, thankfully I got it fixed. Not but an hour later, it was a torrential downpour.

Those switches Phil need no programming but the main module on the driver and passenger side do need programming after replacement. I didn't know you were doing them too.
Alright, who lives nearby with a Tech-2 to help ole Phil out?

Random thought after sitting at a redlight earlier next to a new 2019 Sierra Denali...
Might be neat to use the center part of the fender emblem from the '19 truck for some of us NNBS 6.2 owners looking for a unique (but still technically OE) badge/emblem.

Well heck. January I had the 6L80e Trans replaced. March I had the motor replaced and this week I had the rear end replaced. All at my dealer. Stating the obvious, yes it cost a few bucks but now I have 3/year/100k Mr Goodwrench coast to coast warranty. Why did I go this route? It's a retired SSV. Bought it with about 119k. My net cost on it after I sold my Envoy was 4 grand, so not too bad. When I bought the thing, I was thinking that I would have to replace the motor and trans replaced right off the bat. However, I drove it like a striped assed ape for almost the last 50k. So while I don't have a car payment, I have a vehicle with a brand new drive train and warranty. Feels good except for the cash outlay, lol. Just got my leather front seats in. I will be putting those in over the next month or so as I get the time. I plan on keeping my beloved Tahoe for another five ot six years.
going to put this in today provided I get time, the old arnott pump seems to be not working every time like it was, free under warranty from rockauto less the shipping can't complain about that

Drove it to church then stopped at the grocery store on the way home and low and behold.... another WDT Suburban with the same wheels as mine sitting in the parking lot...
The other one is obviously an '09+... you can tell by the rear bumper.
The other one also didn't have two hooks up front.
Wish I could have gotten some better pics but there was a big work van parked in the way.
It's hard to tell much of a difference in height until you see the wheel well gap out back... lol
Also, before anyone has a chance to tell me I have a parking light out on the rear... it's just the way the camera pics up LEDs... they all work, I promise.

Have you ever noticed how small your rear tire looks in the wheel well?
