What did you do to your 2015-2020 K2XX Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[sd172]

Had 180F Mishimoto thermostat installed. I don't see my oil temperatures go above 200F anymore.

View attachment 228557 Upgraded my factory D3S HID bulbs on my ‘15 Yukon XL Denali to the OSRAM CBI.

Here’s a quick pic of OEM stock HID on the right (passenger side) and OSRAM CBI D3S bulb on the left (drivers side).

@CMoore711 / @cmatt - What part number / color temp did you go with on your OSRAM CBIs?

I have the 5.3, but it fits both engines.

The only thing I did with my truck today is look at it, parked in the driveway, missing my daily commute.

Would you mind sharing the part number for your 2" rear drop?
I got some lowering spring a while back from tony norcall SS but they were 4" and the rear was lower than the front.
I too have a suburban and the longer rear cargo/body shape, I really believe 2" is the max perfect drop.
Also, any complaints regarding opening the rear hatch not being high enough?
me at 5'11, with the rear 4" I was constantly hitting my head

this is what I picked off from eBay. The coil springs bolted up perfectly because GM hasn’t change the rear frames of these trucks for almost 20 years I left the rubber coil spacer in at the top and after a couple hundred miles everything settled and it sits perfectly level at exactly 2 inch drop. It rides really well to and with a load of people it does really well. Just one tip, there’s two different springs, one for the models with auto ride with the air shocks and one for the models with just the basic premium ride. The ones here are the ones for models with the premium ride suspension without the air adjustability.

and honestly having it down 2 inches really helps with loading and unloading. The rear hatch height isn’t a big of a deal because I’m only 5‘7“. But for those closer to 6 feet in height they’ll have to duck their head a little bit.

Thank you - I ended up going with the CBBs - based on the online reviews

The highest I'd go on the Kelvin scale is 5k, anything higher you start loosing lumen

I thought the same thing, until I saw these reviews...

Those Kelvin ratings Osram is labeling their packaging with is BS. It's science and numbers, you can't all of a sudden say a 7k is now brighter just because Osram says it is. That's like the Weather Channel now saying "Oh we decided that 70 degrees is now the new 85 degrees."

That "7k" Osram labeled their CBBs is not actually 7k. The link you shared even shows all the capsules going up in the Kelvin scale also dropping in Lumen.

They're stock for our market, like esky mirrors
I think the same are on Caddys. Should be OEM

here are similar ones in this thread https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/2015-2017-fender-flares.85680/#post-1033377

Completely agree! Lucky for me I really don’t care about the temperature on the packaging.. I prefer the look balanced with the lux/lumens, and the CBIs and CBBs looked to be the best two options.

Vendors need to evaluate their marketing a little closer

I think it's like he said at the end of the video where Osram pretty much catered to the buyer who goes for the "numbers"
