Bushings are easy, you'll be fine! Rent the press tool if you don't have a good way to press them out

Went by powder guys shop today and check out his wheel stash. Actually not much compared to usual hes been diligently selling stuff instead of hoarding. Only thing he had for 6x139.7 is a set of 2 piece 23"asantis, 22" snowflake reps and some 22" OEM gmc wheels.
I did talk him into getting a scale and weighing different 20-24" gm wheels as he sees them. He swears 3 piece Vossens are some of the lightest hes seen and is what's on his avalanche now.

Do any NBS guys have creeky sounds even after front-end rebuilds? I'm not certain it's coming from the front but it sure sounds like it. The alignment shop guy said I should lather the new UCA bolts in anti-seize and should one by one pull the body mounts out inspect and reinstall with lots of grease if they are still good which I'm fairly certain they are. I already went through and greased everything with a zerk fitting which didn't seem to help.
Went ahead and ordered new Moog UCAs to put the camber bushings in so I can get them 100% pressed in and squared away before I ever pull the truck back in the shop.

I can’t hear shit except my exhaust maybe you need it louder. Pretty sure there’s no squeaks though.
Mines pretty damn quiet. I had one little squeak, but since replacing the uca and lower ball joint, as well as new 5100’s up front, she’s stealthy.

No no no more loud lol, it's more of a creak then a squeak. Kinda like an old staircase and mostly during low speed parking maneuvers. Been doing it since I got it and was really hoping the total front end rebuild would fix it.
Huh maybe I need to grease the UCA bushings better, I don't think I did at all since there's no zerk fitting. I like quiet

I noticed mine creaking today. I had the uca--both, and those camber bolts--and those adj brackets replaced, including greasing all the zerks. I also gotta replace 2 zerk fittings. I'm at 295k tho. Are you around that mileage? Think it might be coming from your steering rack? The part that gets starved for grease--

About to roll over 263k, the only thing that hasn't been replaced is the steering box or the intermediate steering shaft which both could possibly cause it. No gonna shotgun replace those tho because they are both expensive and I have no steering play or other reason to replace them. Gonna try the beltech UCA bushings along with new bolts and grease the crap out of them. Then maybe look at body mounts. It's not a huge concern want to get the alignment perfected first.

That's it--intermediate steering shaft--couldn't think what it was called.
Getcha one of them fat chicks you wanna get with and have her sit in the driver seat and bounce up and down while you climb around under it and listen. If she isn’t bouncing hard enough mount a big ol’chick stick in the seat.
This is on my list to do.. I have a slight knock when steering sometimes, and pretty confident this is why.. [emoji3525] steering box is a tiny bit noisy as well, but nothing serious so far.

Have you tried to redistribute the grease in it? It'll last for a little while.
I have not..

Where the best place to pick up one of those heffers? Golden corral?
Get the Boregusson shaft it worked great on my Silverado, somehow this thing doesn't have the clunk.
I also still have the clunk in the front end when going from forward to reverse or reverse to forward. I feel like it was fixed after the front end rebuild so I wonder if ball joints wore out already. It happens on both sides independently of each other for example, this morning I backed up with the wheel turned hard making a 90* reverse maneuver. About halfway into the turn, the driver side made the clunk then just a second later I heard what I think was the passenger side. Then as I spun the wheel in the opposite direction and started moving forward it seemed like both clunked simultaneously.
