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

[bottomline2000]

Got some weathertech mats. Not impressed especially for the price. Dont really fit and the bottom is smooth like a surfboard. Perfect for kids playing in snow. Going to send the back and get some Lloyd's Veloutex mats.

currently I'm Almost up to date with maintenance on my daily driver and project. I recently replaced the front brakes and rotors. Finally found the water leak behind the rad shroud in a seam of the radiator. Sooo, that was a can of worms.. Replaced Radiator Therm, intake bypass hose, heater core and blender door actuator All last month.

I just finished a tile job for labor on my front end ball joints, control arms ends, etc... and just received my Black shocks in for this weekend it was to be done, but sadly parts held up due to bad weather.. I JUST FOUND OUT THAT WALMART SELLS MICKEY THOMPSON TIRES 285 75 16--$137.50
Sooo 3" lift and tires coming within a month or so. and they sell Nittos..

I was able to clear 285's on 16x8 rims with a +6mm offset (stock was -25mm, so they stick out about 1 1/4"), by simply turning my stock keys (got about 1 1/2" out of them). I also trimmed the plastic inner fender liner behind the bumper.

I later added older Ford Expedition lift keys, just installed and bolts turned until they make contact, I got 2 1/2".... I turned them in a bit, and got another 3/4" - 1" before they hit the bumpstops, then backed off the bolts a turn. In the rear, Z71 springs got me about 3/4" - 1", and 2" spacers got me to my current height.

That's a STEAL for MT's at that price! Grab 'em while you can!

Just ordered some Taylor LS race wires. Checked out the ones you mentioned @bottomline2000 , but the boots look the same as what I have, boot length is too long and that's what's burning on the headers, also some of the fiberglass boot and wire heat shields. And some Jimmi Jammerz. That's the steel anti theft plates that go behind the door locks, inside the doors. Later on gonna get them for the rear doors and hatch.

Anytime i park in Manhattan i pop the hood and remove the ignition relay...nothing worse than a thief

Just in Manhattan?

Yeah the wires are shorter but I think the boot length is the same. The fiberglass boots will keep the wires from burning. My driver side header is weird with a big hoop and long wires just won't work for me. Talk about a crazy design..

I looked at those Jimmi Jammerz too. Need to get them installed..especially the one for the hood.

Here's a pic of my old fuel pump. I didn't post it when I did it.

Not much left of it. The lines were swollen with rust and the pressure line had a pin hole. JUSt enough to smell it but not enough to see a leak

Wow. Looks like salt didn't do it any favors.

Oil spray every year and covers everything but the fuel pump. I wanted to do the fuel pump in the spring just to have a fresh one but wasn't expecting it to be that bad. Oh well good to go now

 

[MadDogDelpho]

Mmm crusty

I remember, thought this one was cool--has the Texan flag in it. Red, White and Blue baby!
