I have exactly one of each of those modules! I was planning to put it in a Toyota Mr2 back in the day.. What bulbs you planning to run?
What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

Just the H9s that came in them. I've got a set of Diode Dynamics SS3 fog lights on the way, along with SAE driving lenses to convert them to driving lights, so I'll have plenty of high-beam light.
FWIW, there are a number of Hella 90mm LED and HID headlights, but they're a lot deeper and I wasn't sure if they'd fit lengthwise.
Nice work
very nice. I love a good headlight project.
I just got back from what turned into a 5h night drive on a GPS adventure thru the never ending back roads in tx. always thankful for good lights when it's pitch black and have no idea where the roads are going but the speed limit start at 70 haha.
tx thinks street lights are illegal lol. I had a rental house once and no joke, the street lights were part of the hoa fee because the city and county doesn't install them basically anywhere lol
Sounds like what it is like driving around WY once you get out of town anywhere.
It is pitch black out here on the country back roads.
driving lights are a must forsure.
I just try to make sure low beam has a good cut off and aimed correctly. high beam, give me all yoh got.

With a warm day this week, I had a chance to get the first of multiple antennas mounted on the Tahoe. This one is for HF communications, and required an extra ground strap from the mount to the inner fender to get the best results.

So this was fun, driving home from work, stopped at the hobby shop to get soem RC parts, get back in truck and all my gauges are dead. DIC is dead, no gear indicator, chimes 3 times. Runs and drives just fine. Shut it off, opened the door to clear the power, restart, same thing. Drive it home and they never came back. Checked all my fuses, looks good, grounds initial check look fine. smacked the dash, nothing..smacked the cluster and when i started it back up, all is well..... guess that means the cluster has a connection issue??? i still need to check a drivers side ground that i saw referenced alot, but seemed weird to happen for sitting for just a couple minutes.
As far as what im doing, have oil cooler block off plate going on this weekend and possibly valve cover gaskets too

oil change done, block off plate swapped, so far it seems to have caught the major leak. just waiting on valve cover gaskets now, passenger side is leaking either at the rear or the rear bolt grommit, but its not near as bad as the block off plate.
Still nothing new with the gauge cluster, working fine. when looking for repair options, I did though find some pretty sweet overlay options, so i might switch mine out again.

Finally washed all of the desert dirt off of it from Thanksgiving trip.
Now I need to slap some armor All on the tires and probably have to get E85 later today
Still need to empty out and clean the inside though

Thanks, I'd run across that in many threads here! I'll be fabricating my own wiring for this, as I'm not a fan of Scotchlok-type connections.
you can just buy some diodes as well for cheap.
I used these are 3 setups already

Wow. Making formula for just a single one month old baby?!?!
Did you really just buy 60 gallons just to make formula for one baby? Surely you’re going to use that for something else? That’s a bit much. I hope no one else in your area needed any.
You have to know that amount is a bit extreme; By extreme I mean that amount puts you in the apocalypse prep category.
First new born a month ago; So you’re still making just 2-4 oz bottles at a time. And thought you needed to buy 6-8 months worth of distilled water all at once?
This brings up some valid questions…
How many trips did it take you to get all those gallons from the store to your vehicle?
Using standard grocery carts or what?
Did you build a designated shelving unit just for the distilled water?
Does it have a label on it that says “Distilled water for formula use only”?
Do you have to drive over an hour away from your home to get to the nearest store that offers 1 gallon containers of distilled water?
Is there a shortage of distilled water in your area?
Did you know there is such a thing called “Nursey Water” available with or without fluoride specifically for making formula?
Congrats on your first newborn!
I can only speak for myself but I buy food/groceries/consumable goods when it is on sale, as much as I can reasonably use before it expires
I save hundreds of dollars doing this consistently. the only thing I am unable to buy in bulk when on sale is like milk or fresh vegetables because they go bad quickly.
bread can be frozen with no ill effects, some vegetables & milk maybe but i prefer not too
the more you can buy in bulk the more you can save IF you buy at the right price

Finally got the chance to give it another bath since I hit rain last weekend and it hadn't been washed in weeks before that because of the cold.
Was a blazing 50* today so I took advantage and washed it.
Also took care of a slight coolant leak from the lower radiator hose on the radiator side.
When I swapped hoses early this past summer I could not get enough room to reuse the spring clamp.
I even have spring clamp tools with the long wire, squeeze handle along with specific pliers and nothing would fit down there.
Finally gave up and used a worm clamp it needed to be tightened down.
If I ever pull the radiator I'll go back to a spring clamp.

Worm clamps suck!!!
Not today but on patrol last night in the light snow.
