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

    Installed helper air bags awhile back but just now trying them out for the first time. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000CFO0GI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Really impressed for the price. As you can see in my signature pic, it already has a slight squat but that 22 footer...

    One torsion bar seems to be worn?

    If you take a C clamp and remove the flat disk, it leaves a ball that fits in the key perfectly. I used this to remove the factory key and install the aftermarket key. Both sides went the same as far as I can tell. Like I said I just don't see a way to install them incorrectly. So based on...

    One torsion bar seems to be worn?

    I installed the keys, Can you explain what "preload the drivers side" means? It only seemed like the key could go on one way. I had to use a C clamp to push the key far enough up to get the keeper in, and then installed and tightened the bolt. The only difference was to get both fenders even...

    Painting your roof rack (Z71)?

    So now that I have my running board/bars painted, my gosh dang roof rack sticks out like a sore thumb due to some faded spots. Whats the best solution since this seems to be a mix of plastic/aluminum? Or is it all plastic?

    Bump stops

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000CN7CVU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I got these based on some feed back on here. They just barely touch now on my key lift.

    Yeah literally 20 or so tabs on each side, it feels real sketchy but it finally will give. I only broke maybe one but it still went back together good. Just take your time and inch it up.
