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

Rocket Man said:

Huh. I'm gonna see if I can find a p/n just to see if they're still available and at what cost.
Edit: I don't see it listed. @915_Tahoe Rene can you look up the rear splash shield for his truck?

I changed the cabin air filter. I mounted the filter with the air flow arrow in the direction of the driver's side. It's right?

I can't believe the lower valance was so cheap at the dealer. Did you use a commercial account or something?

SnowDrifter said:

nope, was a standard "hey I need a part" call in.


As an aside... Why in the world does the forum hate raccoon?

Got a replacement lower valence to replace the one the '**** broke. Turns out, cheapest place to get it was the dealership. 55 bucks for the whole thing ain't bad at all.

2 bolts and some snaps to install. Takes about 10 minutes. Longest part of the process was locating my tap and die set since the new lip didn't come with bolts... and mine were a smidge bit crusty.

If you should have one of these, and you don't. I'd recommend picking one up. Noted about a 0.3-0.4mpg difference with the thing on the highway. No discernable difference in city.. Couldn't tell you why so much, but it's there's a value proposition to be made. And it looks better lol.

Gave 'er some TLC. Oil change, trans fluid, p/s fluid, engine and cabin air filters. Need to replace the inline filters I have on the transmission and power steering but local shop was sold out of the things.

Also replaced my interior 4wd switch. The 'ol solder reflow trick wasn't holding up any more. For what it's worth, the dorman offering performs well. Plastic and mould quality feels on par w/ OEM. Button actuation feel is slighly mushier, but nothing of concern. Backlighting came w/ LED that does dim in accordance with the dimmer switch. Has me pondering about swapping all interior backlighting to LED.


Said it before and I'll say it again, this is the best damn vehicle I've ever owned. 165k and she runs like a top!

Trying to pick some people's brains. After backing my boat down the launch (Water level not even to exhaust) I had a B2610 code set in, don't seem to have any issues with cluster lighting, and everything seems to work as necessary. Anybody else have this issue, it's also causing the Stabilitrac and traction control lights to stay on. I do have a custom cluster from digital dash solutions (fixmygauges) I don't seen any issues and there are no other codes active or in history. I'm a little puzzled currently. Any help would be great. Thanks

Nice job...

Good looking one for sure...

Wish I could say the same on mine about being the best.....Had high hopes......
Mine likes being at the shop more than being at my house these days... Every time another couple hundred to 1k... Granted, I put all OEM stuff in, and expect 100% like new from every part of it.... But still, drove great off the car lot, fine for a while, open 1 thing up and everything else goes wrong... Tired of this Pounding every few weeks....

ALL other NBS ones I had were always good to me... This one just has a middle finger up for me I guess...

Searching for something else is hard to do, especially after dropping cash upon cash trying to make it what I wanted... I expected better, but got worse.....

Guess I need to follow my own dam advice... "Lower Your standards and never be disappointed"
