What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[Tonyrodz]

At least you'll appreciate it when you do get it back.

Yup, been looking for some tires already!

Not a big deal but got rid of that garbage gas door and replaced it with a stock one.

While opening the rear glass hatch for the first time, the passenger side hinge came off the glass. I cant be the only one for this to happen... It must be glued i assume. What type of adhesive does everyone use for this repair?

Also both left and right front axle seals are leaking (223k miles) where the axle tubes bolt up to the center section. Is there a write-up on this?

Trans cooler upgrade!

Other than the alum angle fab it was plug and play. Much bigger than the old one.

Also replaced inner and outer tie rods, sway bar links, and ss front brake lines. Plus pass side uca. Drivers side didnt want to fit...need to check part number...

Much better now. Got the alignment close but i need to take it in.

What made you go with a deep trans pan? Your original one needed replacement? I upgraded the trans cooler instead, so just curious really.

Those came with 454's?

The 8.1 is basically a Vortec 454 rather than an old school BBC

Must have tons of torque in that baby!

Yeah but it drinks more gas than it's worth

Man! Imagine doing mods to that motor, cam, headers, tune etc! Screw the gas mileage!

Someone put a drain plug on mine and it leaks from there don't want to be bothered with fixing it new pans cheap enough just gonna drop the pan change the filter and top it off and be done with it, was gonna get a PML finned pan but it's the same capacity as the stock pan, my temps are good now don't tow with it so couldn't see spending $200 on that
