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

[wjburken]

I FINALLY got my new wheels and tires mounted. They're Escalade Platinum edition 22s, custom powder coated a color I call hyper grey. The Caddy center caps will get replaced soon. And ignore how dirty the truck is. Now all I need to do is add lowness (and trim my bushes...sheesh!).

Those turned out very nice.

Woodblocker- what year and drivetrain do your have?

Tap a talk screwed me up I ment to post in GMT800
It's a 2006 Yukon XL 5.3 4:10 and hd towing package . Anyone know best air bags ? Is it worth $10 for Firestone air bags for rear ? I have towed with a 2001 suburban LT with HD towing 3:73 12,000 lb trailer. So ya I'm guy that tell ya the limit of a suburban/ Yukon .. my Yukon XL will be the best it can be . I did find out suburban 2001 did great at 9000 lb load it's weakness was it needed truck tires P tires are just to soft . That's where set of towing tires came in for the 2006 Yukon XL it fix that squishy problem ... I was using weight distribution hitch .. so I need air bags on 2006 .

Firestone bags are worth it. Had them on my 2500 Avalnche.

Agreed on the bags. I ran the AirLift bags on my XL 2500, worth every penny.

Mounted the inflation valve through the bracket that has the 7-way connector

On second coat of filler primer .. has anyone wet sanded color ( going to be black ) before hitting with clear coat .. or after primer do I hit with black then hit with clear coat .. steel rims are being a bit tricky with cooler weather.

If you need to sand the color to fix something, you're supposed to shoot it again before clear, afaik. Then sand the clear.

 

[Woodblocker55]

I'm going to try that .. and way I understand it I can use like 2000 grit on clear coat . Then hit with polish . I need to get one of them handles for the spray can to get color perfect for clear coat ..I will send pictures either way Doom or success. [emoji41][emoji106][emoji1258]

Washed the truck and took a new photo. Of course, it’s Florida so it rained later that evening.

Changed my oil using the fumoto oil plug today. Super easy and no mess. Took maybe another 5 mins or so to drain completely.

Also used this to clean my headliner. Got rid of pen marks and other stains.

I have some of those they seemed to take out splattered food stain, etc, but left little blue fabric behind when scrubbing hard, a baby wipe took off the threads afterwards, also used them on the outside to get some bubble gum off the body

ya, that was my suspect cause I just had not had a chance to get the backpressure tested yet, when I was delivering my shipping today the light came on, first check engine light i've had on this thing. went by the muffler shop and they ordered 2 magnaflow's for me $295 each installed, price seems fair I checked prices on them a couple days ago and they were $260-280 something each everywhere, should be all fixed up tomorrow and hopefully my mpg will jump back up to at least 10 or better
