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

[RAMurphy]

As with most things, depends where the curves are located.

 

[MassHoe04]

Just my theory: The rise in the roof line to accommodate passenger head room for middle, which is needed as passengers enter and climb towards the 3rd row seats. The line in the door and rear quarter windows, follow that line so it doesn't look like a pregnant guppy that went belly-up. Having the lines at the top and middle makes the hump up top look less hump-like...

infiniti's big SUV..... The curves were to not make it look like a truck ( mistake of a reason).

Curves on a Ferrari are for aero-performance. Complete different science.
( And a different result ) IMO

(( Pic - Example of poor aerodynamics )) Eeeeek !!

This morning there was a puddle of fluid under my truck. Chased it down to a leaking hydroboost unit. I'm going to replace it with a new unit (I've seen rebuilding it with new gaskets can be hit or miss), but wondering if anyone can tell me the difference between these two units. I'd like to go with top of the line OEM if possible, so appreciate anyone who can confirm which of these would be best.

I'd like to know also..... mine has a small-slow leak. ( not enough to drip on the floor..yet)
( One of those has only one left..... not to worry...... I wouldn't snag it away from ya)

I just called the dealer and they gave me part number 19371355 which seems to align with 178-1030, but hoping someone “in the know” can confirm for me.

I've been worried about losing vacuum with this cam, and thinking about converting to hydroboost.

I don't recall your cam. But, you should switch anyway just because HB works and feels awesome.

Truck norris, it's pretty mild, but I'm pretty sure I read something about the 107 lsa possibly causing vacuum issues.

I installed a wireless charger (Boost Auto) on my center console. Easy to install, took like 45 minutes. Longest part was the wiring because I'm a bit detailed. Works great. Pretty grippy too, which I found out this morning when I came around a curve at 55+ and a Fedex truck was stopped in the middle of the road and I had to slam on my brakes. The phone just slide forward a little bit and was "caught" by that little lip. So much easier then plugging my phone in to my usb cable when I need to charge it.
On a side note, I'm currently smoking a beef tenderloin - smells awesome.

Oh snap. Yeah, that's a tight LSA!

@mountie I went ahead and ordered 178-1030. Not 100% sure, but it seems to match the OEM part number.

I don't plan on drag racing this thing, and from my limited research it's the best cam for low rpm torque. I've been thinking about the dorman intake manifold, but I haven't been able to find any testing on it. Was looking at the ebay aluminum ones too, but I read that it will move the powerband up in the rpm. I should probably just clean up the stock one, but it's so ugly, and shaving it seems like quite a bit of work, lol.

If you combine that with wireless CarPlay or Android Auto it would be even better. Myself, my phone just stays in my pocket and connects via CarPlay with no wires. I use a wireless charger at night and it lasts all day. But I don’t drive for hours each day either.

 

[RAMurphy]

I do have an after market dual din Kenwood stereo (speakers, subwoofer and amplifier) with wireless Android Auto which I use all the time. Since I have daughters and granddaughters we're on the road all the time.

Took the MAF out to clean. Fetched my can of cleaner and it won't spray despite being half full. Boo!

I did this about a year ago. I have wired-only CarPlay, so it’s unfortunate I still have to plug in. But, it’s very useful for my daughters cell while we’re driving and I’m plugged in, or for using BT with mine. Also, your “mat” seems to be a nice upgrade, with the little phone ridge around the charging area. Mine doesn’t have that, and with my particular phone case, it’s definitely not very grippy.. nice upgrade.! (I know, it’s filthy, and I STILL need to do my leather seat..! I’ve been a bit busy..

Been scrubbing, lol
