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

    This isn't necessarily relevant to any dash unit, but I use Organic Maps, which uses Open Street Maps data. Once the data files are on your phone or tablet, you need no connectivity for navigation. It can open kml files (Google Earth format) and export points and tracks you've created in the...

    Rear Side Window Flag Decal

    As OR VietVet said, there are numerous options out there. Make sure you are not making your search too narrow, such as looking for some specifically for a 2008 Yukon XL. Using "suv side window flag decal" will find plenty.

    What part is this?

    Some folks might recognize that straight off, but it will be helpful to include pictures of where it broke off from.

    Possibly a stupid question, but one I need answered

    I'm not who you're asking, but one doesn't need to have it on hand. It's pretty easy to think up a search terms such as "chmsl effectiveness" and Google it. That link is the 1st result in Google. If you Googled "chmsl safety data," that link is the 2nd result.

    Possibly a stupid question, but one I need answered

    DOT mandated starting in '86 for cars and '94 for light trucks. Not to be too harsh, but how can anyone not have noticed something that lights up in one's face in traffic and has been on nearly every new vehicle on the road for over three decades?

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

    That's a possibility. I had that issue with an '86 BMW 535i, so until new injectors arrived, I'd shut off the engine by pulling the fuel pump fuse, which ensured there was no pressure while sitting.

    Overhaul load bushing

    No. Bushings and bump stops are different items.

    Overhaul load bushing

    Body mounts.

    Anyone else do this in the winter?

    By "This generation didn't have them," I mean GMT900s, not that no contemporary vehicle had them.

    My Installation of A Diode Dynamics SS3 LED Fog Light Kit as Driving Lights

    Thanks! Yes, as I mentioned, a diode would do that if you wanted it set up like the Fleece Module.

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

    I finalized the wiring arrangement and switch installation for my driving light installation I posted about a couple of days ago and wrote it up here.

    My Installation of A Diode Dynamics SS3 LED Fog Light Kit as Driving Lights

    Y'all, This is to document how I installed a Diode Dynamics SS3 LED "Pro" level fog light kit, but with the amber lenses swapped out for clear "SAE Driving" lenses. It's important to understand that while it started as a fog light kit, the lens swap and wiring arrangement makes it a driving...

    Any way to artificially test grounding issues?

    Yes, you can use the ohmmeter portion of the multimeter to check continuity, grounding, and whether there's a short. What would you be trying to do with the jumper cables? Create another ground path? If so, yes, you can do that, but you can also fabricate your own test leads with a length of...

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

    All of the SS3s and SS5s have an amber backlight now (which is amber whether you have an amber or clear lens). I haven't connected this circuit (dunno if I will).

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

    According to Diode Dynamics: * fog = 80°x8° * driving = 18°x8° * spot = 6° cone

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

    As delivered, correct. Which is why I did the lens swap.

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

    That's a neat setup! For reference, what bi-LED projectors did you use?

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

    Thanks for the suggestions, which happen to be the way I already do connections and terminations. :cheers: I suppose I need to clarify further, as I'm talking about the schematics of the triggering circuitry, not the physical wiring itself.

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

    Yes, they did plug right in with no taping or cutting anything. However, I'm not running them as fogs, I am running them as driving lights, so I need to modify the wiring so they'll come on with the high beams. As I mentioned above, I'm not a fan of "piercing" modifications like Scotch-loks...

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

    Just finished installing a Diode Dynamics SS3 LED Fog Light Kit, "Pro" level, with the amber lenses swapped out for clear "SAE driving" lenses. The LEDs are 4K white if you order an amber set, and are 6K white if you order a clear set; I wanted the 4K color temperature, thus the amber set with...

    Aluminum / XFE NNBS Front Suspension Rebuild

    From discussions here (e.g. this one and this one) and various YouTube videos, I was under the impression that our trucks' radiators didn't have petcocks (my '13 doesn't).

    Anyone else do this in the winter?

    Yes, I've done similar, but not with my Tahoe here in Georgia. It was with my '57 Chevy, '86 BMW 535i, and '87 AMC Eagle when I was stationed in Spokane, WA and Minot, ND. I used cardboard in front of the a/c condenser in the BMW, and used a really thin mattress pad in the AMC and the Chevy...

    DIY Mid & Long LCA's / UCA's.....and everything else you'll need to have and know

    Thanks for the info on the components! There's no reason the Ackerman would change with what I did. The steering arms still have the same positional and angular relationship with all other components, as they aren't moving in any direction or by any angle. With what you are doing, however...
