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

[07Burb]

My wife is the same. The vanity LEDs are great during the day, but at night they’re blinding. I haven’t swapped them back either.

I swapped my interior lights to LEDs years ago but never did the vanity mirror at all. Mainly because we never use it so it's an out of sight out of mind kind of deal for us. But now that I know it's way too bright at night I won't ever change them I guess LOL We've had our Suburban for over 9 years and that vanity mirror has been used MAYBE twice during that time for us LOL

Much better.

+1 armor and holding @14 psi with the new dorman compressor

 

[Doubeleive]

the old pump would only pump up to 10 psi when I was testing it unless I commanded it on more, the dorman is now pumping it to 17psi with no passengers I should notice some difference driving hopefully

@Doubeleive what is the second pic of?

Btw, when playing around with the Tech2 the other day, I noticed that you can inflate or deflate the suspension. Mine was sitting at 17psi and I started to add air just to test it and realized that it wasn't shutting off. I manually stopped it and it was at 24psi. I then released it back down to 17psi.

I hope I didn't damage anything inflating it that high.

the 2nd pic is just a little oem skid plate for the transfer case, it doesn't feel like much strength wise but it looks like the way it has grooves in it if I hit something it would deflect it instead of cracking the transfer case. air pressure wise it seemed to settle in around 18 psi after a couple key cranks then I jumped in and went around the block and it stayed around 19-22 psi, it varies a little depending on the angle of the rear end like when you turn a corner the psi will go up a hair and then back down as you straighten out. I see it has the shock dampner % command data in there also I may play with a little tomorrow driving around and see what it shows just out of curiosity.

All well and good for you Wes, but when most people turn, all 4 wheels stay on the ground!

lol, the air pressure will change as the rear end tilts even a little or if you jump on the bumper or rock the truck back & forth. that's why you have to do the ALC trimset with it sitting on level ground and no weight on it.

Bright enough to light up the whole car behind you with SUPER BRIGHT RED light

the back up lights are Super bright
it's factory modified with heat shield shim ) the regular tend to melt

If they’re LED they do NOT get hot thus no need for heat shields. LMFAO again.

the back up and signal are not as you can see the Reverse bulb is burnt to crisp (the base) so yes the heat shield is necessary..

Where'd you get the screws for it? Did they self-tap or were the holes already threaded on yours?

I bought the skid plate and bolts it was a different part number than just the skid plate, it came with 3 bolts I had a spare 4th bolt in my toolbox from my nbs and yes they self taped just had to push them a little to catch initially

I wondered about that, what was the PN# for the one with the bolts? Those things are $6-10 each online, GM is mighty proud of them!

23282726 I paid 54.94 last week which was about the cheapest from gmpartsdirect on eBay now they raised the price to $56.04

Well put LED bulbs if for backup lights duh. JDM Astar’s are bright as hell and zero heat. Those incandescent bulbs are ancient technology. BTW how much time does a Prius I mean Hybrid spend in reverse in order to burn the bases and why would you recommend a tail light that burns up like that? Turn signals aren’t even led either? What does that leave - the park lights are the only led part of that thing? I’m pretty sure we will all pass on those lights lmao.

Well, my issue has been located and resolved. Apparently the wire harness was rubbing against a bolt on the valve cover and wore its way through causing several wires to be damaged and short out. Splice/Solder/heat shrinked in some new wiring and now all is back to normal except my dang A/C, lol.

Yes i only used 2-3 bolts that i ‘found’ on, i mean under, another truck. No way i was paying that much for a bolt.
