Dropped off at the body shop to fix the clear on the hood and rustproof the panels. I don’t like dropping my truck off anywhere.
What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

Finally installed most of the suspension. Made a thread over in NNBS Street Suspension sub forum.
Great stance.

Thank you. I have a set of declads goin on, but I'll probably still use the stock 275/55 size for daily driving. Once I adjust toe I'll put the Mickeys on and get some better pictures.

Got any pics? I’ll take a snap of mine after work when the sun comes back out. Mines getting bad. Roof too. Sucks since when I bought it a year ago it wasn’t like this.

No, unfortunately I don’t have photos of mine. Here is an image I grabbed of google. Mine is similar. They were hard to see on my truck without the right light angle. They weren't peeling
Yet.
A good PDR guy can get those out... if you want or care. It would probably annoy me.Got some dents in the roof skin now when I tried to force first ones in and they got stuck. Panel tool left a little ding.

I just realized I didn’t get a good hood picture but you get the idea. The roof is worse but I don’t see it unless I look down on it from my sons bedroom. It’s frustrating. I can tell the owners before me only took it through the car wash, never waxed it. So many swirl marks, haze and scratches.
If you ever find yourself in a situation where you need to pry against a body panel, use a wide (3-4”) flat thin putty knife wrapped in tape to pry against. This will protect the paint and distribute the pressure so you don’t get a dent.Got some dents in the roof skin now when I tried to force first ones in and they got stuck.

Got the alignment taken care of today. It was just too hot this weekend to try and sit out in the driveway and break the jamnuts on the tierods loose and then set everything close enough to drive it to the shop. Really happy with the way the front turned out. Sitting at -0.3* with 5" control arms.

Cleaned off the windshield and put on more aquapel. Cleaned the inside too, but all I did was leave streaks everywhere. It's gonna suck driving in the sun...I am horrible at cleaning glass
I saw my Aquapel in my toolbox yesterday and thought about it but it’s just about the dry season so I decided to wait. Plus it’s still doing its job.

It's been about a year since I last put it on. Really like the stuff. Put it on my wife's jeep and put it on the inlaws new rv a few weeks ago

I have never heard of that stuff before. Sounds like you guys like it? I'm going to replace this windshield before the end of year and was going to start looking in to a ceramic coat or water repellent treatment.
Is that stuff better than Rain-X?

I've never messed with ceramic coating so I can't speak on that, but I definitely recommend it if you don't go that route. I do like it better than rain x. Seems to last longer imo.
Imo yes, lasts longer to me. Not the cheapest, but I'm a fan of it.
I have a hard time getting the RainX to be somewhat clear. Always get smearing. Probably an operator malfunction.

I added a magnet to my air filter box so the screws have a home while the cover is off. 
Also painted the heads of the screws just in case..

Those are designed to not come out... just unscrew to the point of loose and lift up on cover... friendly fyiI added a magnet to my air filter box so the screws have a home while the cover is off.

Just what I was going to say.
