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

[89Suburban]

Yeah, when I get some free time I'll pull mine. The half shafts are out, and when I spun the driver's side of the front diff it's gritty/crunchy.

What did you tie the front driveshaft to?

I removed the front drive shaft. Trying to make room to access the engine for engine oil pan replacement access and worst case engine replacement.

Doesn't the transfer case leak?

Doesn't the transfer case leak?

No sir it’s a splined shaft that slides out of the center of the flange. There is a separate case oil seal on the outside of the flange shaft.

Last night, but same thing...

Found a 2-ton engine hoist w/engine stand for $200. Allegedly only used for one project, then stored for a while. The best part was that they delivered it to my driveway.

 

[Charlie207]

......and just bought a new torque converter to throw in the 180k 6L80 while the engine is out.

Link to VEGE (CVC) BU60FHD.

Precision of New Hampton (the blue TC people) are dumb, and won't sell to individuals, so I tossed my $$$ to Summit. It's 2024... set up an online marketplace.

Gor the rear mud guards on.
Came inside to cool off.
Tough working in the sun in 106* weather.
Going to tackle the fronts.

Which flaps are you installing?

Which flaps are you installing?

At the recommendation of others here, I went with the Husky flaps.
The rears fit very nice and are very secure.
Working on the fronts now.

Nice. That's what I threw on a while ago.

 

[Grady_Wilson]

All done.
This old man is about to have a heat stroke.
The few instances like this a year is when I miss having a pool.
Rinse off and then dive in and feel the heat get sucked out of your body.

I'll be taking it for a ride after I hit a cool shower and rest for a bit.
Need to pick up a trailer harness adapter and some groceries.

Was stuck crawling up a hill in traffic on the way home yesterday. IATs didn't like that. Was only 103 yesterday.
Then they settled back down after we actually got rolling again.

I bet those hood lovers would have really helped.

I used to see numbers like that or higher in thecopcar. the louvers were a massive help.

I'm sure someone has posted it before, but how do you get those informations to display on the dashboard?

The BT Dieselworks AutoSync allows you to view that info on the DIC by pressing the mirror D pad buttons

AutoSync and HPTuners are my two favorite upgrades!
(and my chime bypass..)

Although I have no drivetrain upgrades to compare to.. apples/oranges kinda thing..

That's neat, but $$$. I would like the windows functions that have been standard in cars from over 20 years ago. (all windows down with remote, auto-up, etc...)

Not all cars 20+ years old have those standard. Our 2015 Acadia has auto up but no remote functions. Only cars I know that old that had remote window functions was with aftermarket alarm systems.

It does much, much more and also has the ability to flash the BCM.

I like it mostly for the ability to disable the TPMS system and have no warning lights on dash due to dead sensors.

Also can disable AFM
Read and clear trouble codes
Program key fobs

additional favorite Autosync functions
------------------------------------------

disable auto door locks!
remote unlock all doors (1 press)
remote open/close windows
retained accessory power (I can still close my windows after opening the door!)
manual exit lighting (flash high beams after door is open)
custom approach/exit lighting (park/rev/high/low/fog)
other lighting customizations (timeouts, brightness, etc)
disable auto headlamps



favorites I never use
------------------------

manual high idle
emergency flashers
extend remote start run time (10min -> 20 min)

My old Nissans, Saabs, and BMWs could all lower windows with the factory remote, as some examples. GM is forever behind on common-sense.
