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

[Keviebear86]

Has anyone changed out their radiator for the option with the engine oil cooler and added the lines? Mine did not come with EOC and I want to add it on. I'm hoping its just a simple replace radiator and install lines.

I did when I swapped the V6 (V6 radiator is the narrower version, maybe 27" IIRC vs 34"?) to V8 on my Silverado. I have yet to add the engine oil cooler lines, still has the little red plugs on the connector on the radiator. SMH.

Edit: I think the wider radiator simply bolts to the other set of holes on the radiator support. You can get a matching fan shroud, although I've been running my original narrow fan shroud for like 4 years w/o any issues.

Picked it up from the Transmission shop. Second time having the Transmission rebuilt in this pig. Last time I had it built was in 2012. Maybe I should stop driving it like I stole it. But 12-15 years out of a daily driven 4L60E is pretty good from what I hear.

Damn! Did they gold plate it? Mind was around $2k, for a "stage I" build.

She is pretty good at that. Not always, but if it is noticeable she will tell me.

My kids don't want to be stranded. So they call me and check on what level of worry things are.

Thats just the going rate in my area. Most shops wants around $3600 to $4500 to R&R and completely rebuild a transmission. I decided to go with this particular shop because I have experience with them and I know they are trustworthy. If O would have driven to a bigger city like Dallas or Houston or something like that, I probably could have found a shop to do it for under $2500, but the cheapest I've found in this area was about $3600.

Finally got a Z71 front lower air dam with fog lights.

Not sure if I want to use it now. I won't be able to add the lower add on lip to the Z71 air dam

I finally was able to get out to the garage to get my 2019+ brakes mounted up. Also did 4 of the 6 stainless Goodridge lines(have stabilitrak). I decided not to mess with the upper 2 lines after a quick look, and after reading that it's a pain to do them.

Went to start bleeding on the right rear and the bleeder screw snapped in two. A quick run to the parts store for a caliper and got that swapped out. Also flushed the fluid.

My 17" 2020+ Silverado wheels fit great, except Discount Tire double stacked weights on one wheel, which happened to be a front wheel. Swapped that front wheel with a rear and everything is good. It stops much better than it did with the stock brakes!

Swapped out my bad axle in my 03 Yukon with a good one from a 01 tahoe. 3rd Pic is the axle I took out and 2nd Pic is right before I put it in. It was a pain in the butt by myself but I got it in about 4ish hours.

@S33k3r :

Looking for a good transmission shop in the DFW area.

Who did your tranny rebuild?
Were you happy with their work?

I have an excellent recommendation in Plano if you are still interested. These guys have been in business since 1966 and they would do the GM 4 speed and 6 speeds with their eyes closed.

 

[dps01]

Absolutely interested.

Can you share with me as well? Thank you.

Will PM y'all

Well my Tahoe is just about ready. Had to have the front end done as both of the upper and lower ball joints were done on both sides. New upper and lower control arms. Also the brake rotors were warped and I had new pads and rotors on the front put on. Will not have to worry about those again for the life of the vehicle. She has now about 320,***. Told my indy when the doors fall off, he will be putting on new doors!

 

[Aquamania001]

Oh I am going to have him put on a new driver side mirror and I am looking to get her some new paint also and get rid of the small amount of rust she has. Going to look almost new when I am done.

Finally had my rear main leak fixed after 9 years And they broke off the bolt that holds the bracket for the wire harness on the transmission. Of course. Not sure what to do to secure it, it’s just hanging there. Too close to the frame for me to drill it out or try an ez out I think. Only thing I haven’t done on this truck besides tires and alignments ever.

Take it back and let them figure it out.

Driver seat work…
New lower seat leather
New lower seat cushion
New upper / lower heating elements.
New armrest cover.

Aside from multiple cuts and abrasions not a bad job… just takes time…. Not a bad way to spend a Saturday
