Paint looks great from 10 feet away in the dark...Today, I found out I’m not great at paint, and also you should never do paint when you don’t have unlimited time View attachment 253881
I also rewired the connectors on the driver’s side to replace the broken/lost parts
Yeah, I’ll get a proper picture this week, provided I get to see sunlight on either side of work any of my upcoming days. But the post is what you did to you NBS TODAY, not a week ago.Paint looks great from 10 feet away in the dark...

My thoughts. Judging by the hack install, I'd guess a leaking FMU.

Had to do these yesterday on mine too. Sucks being clumsy while under the hood around brittle parts lol!
the first time I had to do some I fought with the dam things to get them off went and bought the tool that is "supposed" to work, in fact I bought like 3 different ones, spent far too much time trying to get the dam things off, then I realized I can just just break the plastic off and 5 minutes later I was done, that was about 15-16 years ago and the only information out there was "you have to use the tool" pffttt I still have the stupid tool's sitting in the toolbox I think one of them might actually work for the fuel line.

I had no problems getting mine off, but had a ***** of a time getting it to slide back on. I was more worried about breaking something else I didn't give it to the ommph it needed. Put a little WD40 on it and got her back together. Checked it this morning a couple times and no leaks so I think it's good to go!
Did you use the AC Delco parts? The Dorman are known to fail fairly quickly.

I took of the Bully bar and changed my headlights Saturday.Love my 1st Yukon!
Keep that in mind. There’s very few Dorman parts I would buy, never the ones that are hard to replace, and never ever those t’s. I have heard nothing but trouble with those Dorman T’s which have such a bad reputation with breaking in a year or two that some people go to the trouble of buying metal ones that take about 12 clamps. OEM’s last for 10-12 years.Went with Dorman. Hopefully it doesn't

Well for mine the T didn't break, the connector to the T did. So maybe that will be my saving grace. But I'll see if I can find a part # for the part I replaced and order the AC Delco version to have as a backup.

Replaced all the bulbs in the front end; high beam, low beam, turn signals, DRL. Cost was $73.00 I just used Sylvania OEM and they look great. But be careful when testing the lights after replacing!! I found ou the hard way that the headlights get hot as he77 ! I melted a spot on the plastic grill! A dremel tool and touch up paint and it hid pretty well though; thank god it's white. Lesson learned. Cut off a "lock" hitch in the receiver ( previous owner lost key) then painted the Reese tow pkg to cover up the old...I rattle canned it and it looks great

What about the Doorman 800-403? That's what I replaced that broke.

That looks totally different then what I have. Did you replace one that came out of the firewall/heatercore? I think both of those are this style.
Test drove it some more after replacing the water pump and to haul $500 in groceries 
ordered a new maf for it yesterday it did a little herky jerky on me right before the water pump blew, typical of a maf going out.
