What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[Rocket Man]

Does ur oil filler cap have a tube to the intake?

What set up is that?

That’s a clean side separator, kind of like a catch can but for the “clean side “ or intake side of the PCV system. You can read more about here in my build thread if you like. Here’s a link. Don’t blame me if you get lost in the thread and don’t come out for hours.

Using these diagrams but my new mirrors don't fold electrically just manual and don't have memory and don't have dimming. I think that if I forget about the colors and the stuff that the new mirrors don't have this diagram will work. What do you think?

May I ask, why are you using the mirrors from a newer year. Do they have the turn signals.

Yes, and I am adding LED puddle lights. The only thing I am losing is diming.

 

[915_Tahoe]

Ok, so ur tahoe didn't come with puddle lights. What year is your truck.

I'm doing the same thing to my 01 silverado, but what I did was just swap the bases from one another. So I had to disassemble both mirrors completely and I used the base with puddle light to my mirrors.

 

[915_Tahoe]

I depinned the 2 leads from lamp connector and pinned them to my old connector. Ground is already there on the door harness, all I need is to run the orange wire to the courtesy lamp supply and I'll have power




These are the 2 lamp leads to the connector.

This is the 2 connectors connected to each other. As you see on the door harness ground is there, all I need to do is run a lead from the door harness to door courtesy lamp power. And that should light up when hitting the key fob or interior lights.

 

[Staggered 02]

Love those rims. 22's?

Sorry long day today. No fun mods today. Worked on the yard which is not nearly as fun. LOL.

The 2005 is sitting on 24" Staggered offset Asantis. The 2015 is on 26" Staggered offset Intros.

intro goes by backspacing which Im sure you know if you ordered from them. But what do you mean by staggered- the fronts are different from the rears? If so, why would you do that for this application? I have way different backspacing on my bagged and bodied Silverado but that’s due to the fact Im tucking them and the rear ended is narrowed to run a 9” lip. The fronts have a large backspacing in order to get steering while tucked.

Yes sir. I do know. I'm running 24" Staggered offset intros on my 02 Silverado. Narrowed the rear end 3" on each side, 373 gears. Eaton Posi, Moser Axles etc. Running a Staggered offset wheel with as much dish depth without having to modify the wheel wells in the bed.

On the 2011 Crew Cab and the Escalade, I wanted as much dish as I could have without having to narrow axles or modify wheel wells. Intro set me up with the backspace needed on the 26s where I could have a deeper dish in the back while not not interfering with any of the suspension components.

On the Crew Cab same thing but running 24" Asantis. I have been thinking about a set of Intros for the Crew Cab as well. We'll see. No rush at the moment which is a good thing considering it takes about 3 months to get them. LOL

Pic below shows the different offset. This pic is a few month old taken before I color matched some of the front and rear pieces. other pics of the Crew Cab and the 02 SIlverado that is the DD in Louisiana at the moment. I"ll bring it back to Florida when my assignment ends.

Come to think of it. Almost all of my rides have staggered offset wheels. The SS has staggered offset 22" wheels as well. That one started it all...

 

[Tonyrodz]

OK, I need some help. Can anybody identify these wires on my new 03-07 side mirrors? The wiring diagram I found doesn't make sense. It may be because the diagram is for the wires that are in the door and not the colors in my plugs. Even so, they don't match up to the locations in the plugs.

Old plugs and I have identified what they are.

View attachment 230722

New plugs without up/down control identification.
I need to know what the yellow, orange, and white wires are.
left/right ?, up/down ?, common for movement ?
The red and black on each set is for the turn signal.
The gray wires on each set are for the mirror heater.

I bought the same mirrors for my 03--puddle lights, turn signals with powerfold. Everything works except the powerfold, I think thos gears are stripped. All I did was just plug them into the power window master switch. That's it. No rewiring. Puddle lights come on with the fob.

Thanks for the help and advice.
My old mirrors have puddle lights but the new ones don't. I am going to install some small LED's in the bottom of the new mirrors for puddle lights and connect them to the existing wires in the harness. I will have to tap into the wiring harness under the dash for the turn signal lights to work. I think I got it figured out last night for the wiring. I just need the LED's to come in tomorrow, drill and install them and I'm good to install the new mirrors. I will take some pics as I get it done and installed. My old mirrors would not move anymore and one had the retaining ring and spring poped off so I had zip-tied it together. These new mirrors will be a long-overdue fix and improvement.

Nice. Here’s my Silverado.

 

[mattbta]

Four new O2 sensors. Stripped the crap out of B1S1 so had to take it to get tapped. Silky smooth throughout the RPM range, except for idle. Was a stab in the dark at fixing my rough idle. Next steps might be new MAF and TB...already cleaned them multiple times. Running out of ideas.

Maybe an intake leak?

Already did intake manifold gaskets, valley cover and knock sensors, plugs, wires prior to this.

Yes sir, thank you. That Silverado and the Tahoe look great.

Damn. Well if you go with a new MAF sensor go Delphi or OEM. I tried a less expensive one and it made my idle problem worse.

For sure.

I'm also wondering if my oil pressure issue contributes to the idle quality. I did oil pan gasket and pickup tube chasing a leak. Then recently, as the oil gets some cycles on it, it seems to drop pressure. Meaning, right after a fresh change, I'm 40+ at idle and 60+ highway hot. Now after 2k miles, it is 30 at idle and 45-50 at highway. No clue what is going on there but still have the leak (even after oil pressure sensor, crank position sensor and those gaskets. Prolly rear main...waiting for the tranny to crap out.) Need to check the oil level and top off if needed.

It seems the lower my oil pressure at idle, the worse the idle quality. (When cold, it is still over 40 and idles smooth.)

What was really weird was the week after I did the pickup tube, I floored it getting on the highway and it pegged at 80 and took a while to come down. Wondering if I didn't get the o-ring seated correctly? Not really wanting to tear into it again.
