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

Installed the hub-centric adapters I've had since last summer. My Nissan/winter wheels have the identical hub dimensions and bolt pattern as my Corporate Motors hubs, but the Black Rhino wheels that came on this truck have like some huge 120mm center bore, and the idiot that bought them thought it was fine to rest the entire weight of the vehicle on the wheel studs.

I had ordered hub-centric adapters but the were too thick, and then winter came so I forgot about them until I swapped my wheels over the other day.

The adapters had an exterior flange that was preventing them from seating all the way so I filed them down by hand.


But, they were too thick, and prevented the wheel from making contact with the rotor. So I found a dude with a lathe who took 0.145" off the thickness for free. (My neighbor owed him a favor, so now I owe my neighbor a favor).



Now they fit, and I won't worry as much about dying.




Torqued the nuts to industry-standard™, put my mum on speed-dial, and went for rip up to evasion speeds down by the local farm stand, and didn't feel any wobbles. Time for a beer.

OK so is the cluster plugnplay ?

Yes, stupidity should most definitely be outlawed.

A whole lot of people would be breaking the law then.

Needs to be programmed to the VIN at a minimum, I believe.

Both of my mustangs (95 & 02) have manual headlights and the dash doesn't light up unless I pull the knob to turn on at least the parking lights

That’s how they used to be, and how they should be. That’s the visual clue we were used to. Jump in the car, it’s dark so you can’t see the dash until you turn at least turn on the park lights, which turns on the tail lights.

yes and no
mileage will not be correct and some vehicle settings will not work until is programmed to the vin.
vin & mileage need to be programmed in.
other than that a cluster is not even needed to drive it

Not all cars have auto headlights. We are spoiled in our GM’s and such. They mentioned that in their article- it’s the cars that don’t have auto headlights that are the problem, or the ones that don’t reset to auto on a restart like some do including GM. Canada just passed a law that states new vehicles must automatically default to auto headlights when the vehicle is started or travels over 5-10 mph because there are a lot of vehicles that don’t. From what I heard, the cheaper vehicles don’t have this. US needs to pass a law but it won’t help with all the cars that are on the road. Education is the key.

I guess that could be the case. maybe there's some Kia or something out with the monitor dash that doesn't have auto lights. I used to rent a lot of newer cars for work and I can't think of anything I had to turn the lights on for except maybe a Nissan versa? but that was definitely a beater

Yes, and so does my 2001 Yukon, but it has automatic headlights and has the light sensor on the dash.

My 95 Grand Cherokee and 93 Crown Vic were old school also, no auto headlights

My 1986 Saab 900S had auto-headlights. It was pretty advanced for its time. My 1987 900 Turbo had power everything, plus the fast turbo boost controller.
