Took care of the trailer hitch yesterday after the recommendation here. Came off easy with 8 bolts - took a scraper, wire brush, and sand paper to it, then sprayed down with a couple coats of rustoleum black. Not perfect, but much better then before and I'm happy with the result
Almost looks like it's timed with the hazards for the last pic ;)
I know some of the tails do top for breaks, middle for directional/hazards. I personally like the whole area lighting up for breaks/directional best which is what I went with but either way I think these are a nice upgrade...
Something seems off. If you checked the socket with a meter and it checks out then it must be the bulbs (which is odd if you bought new ones). Either way I’d order some LEDs and give them a try. They look better then stock and may solve your issue.
These are the one I’ve got and work great...
I think you see the trend armentaaw, hope you're saving for a rebuild ;) Only major repair for me and was around ~200k I believe. Definitely worth doing.
Appreciate all the comments :) Nice to see others with these wheels too, they really do seem to 'fit' with this body style, not flashy but give it a fresh look.
100% great idea. As I've been upgrading all the little things that are off pop more I've noticed. This is an easy one I need to...
Picked the wheels up this morning. Installed and gave her a nice cleaning since it's a nice 50 degree winter day. Really happy with the result after the upgrades last few months. I need to get sensors and new nuts still ;) then I'm on to new headlights. Maybe level/small lift as well. Open...
I'm over 235k on my 06' and she purrs. Transmission was rebuilt, but other then that it's been low cost fixes for me and many I know who own these share the same sentiment if maintained. These NBS trucks are another beast compared with most vehicles on the road IMO.
I already have to clear that damn code every start up due to a bad sensor - so I guess that wont change. Hope I won't have to do it 4 times though... hah
Thanks :cool: Truck looks great and I def dig the look of these on our body style. I asked about lug nuts and reply was "no nuts" hah
2017, they should have sensors right?
Thanks guys for the help :)
So wheels next, you guys seemed to agree hah. 1k asking price for wheels below, I got them to 800 and thinking about going with these. Tread is decent. I think they'll look good, I feel I've seen someone with these exact wheels on our NBS style here on forum but can't find it right now...
Failed emissions September of last year and finally got inspection sticker after chasing O2 and Evap codes. Best part is it took so long that I now have a 2020 sticker so next year in MA I won't have to pass emissions due to age.
Was a nice enough day today so was able to clean her up and...
That is one sweet looking truck and I definitely do prefer the look of the color match.
Appreciate it, I suppose I'll keep it for now as it is an improvement. I may do exactly as you say with color matching at some point (only because I know a guy that does great work and I'm sure it'll look...
I put the Esky roof rack on the Yukon and not sure how I feel about it. Thought I'd like it more but at the moment it seems a little to much 'look at me' with the chrome. But at the same time I do like the clean lines :shrug:
Funny, I went to school at Bridgewater State.
Seekonk is not far from me. Nice because you'd be close to a lot of good RI spots too, especially if you like beaches/fishing. Narragansett, Newport, Providence
Wow
:jawdrop:
It's been weirdly warm around here in MA. I usually am ice fishing now but yesterday fished the open water for the first time ever in January. Do you have issues with the doors or starting at those temps?
I think I may have an LED problem and not sure if it'll go away. Ordered more for license plate lights, perimeter lights, and back two interior lights. Day light even at night ftw!
Well this was unexpected. Tail lights weren't supposed to be delivered until Thursday, but they came in today. 60 degrees and sunny today in MA, what better day to install than today (in January)?
Esky roof rails next - my buddy at the junk yard says the ones on the black Escalade (where I...
