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

[Pilot]

Aren’t those grilles like $1200?

Holy crap $1100 for a grill? Looks sweet though!

Yeah. Felt a little guilty spending that much on a grille, but it’s such a prominent feature of the vehicle and there really are not a lot of options for the 2nd gen Tahoe. The Royalty Core was exactly the look I wanted, plus it’s hand made, super high quality and heavy duty.

I’ll install and upload pics when I’m back in town.

Having to clean my air filter and MAF sensor, so while I was waiting for everything to dry I got bored and put the spacers on the rear to even it up with the front.

Man, those sit out there! The stance is growing on me, but I don't think I'll ever like the look of 12 wides with 33 or 35x12.5 tires. Just not enough sidewall bulge. Deeper lip 10 wides with the 1 1/2" and 2 1/2" spacers I have now, with some 35x12.5x20's..... Hell Yeah!!!

Yeah she’s def wide now. I only have about 6” between tire and lines on each side when I drive down the country roads out here, there are some places the road gets so narrow I am wider than the lanes.

That thing is super wide, wouldn’t even fit on most roads around here.

And those steamrollers look crazy haha. I’m guessing that’s their April fools, even though I know people would buy them if they offered them.

Edit: I just imagined the offset of those wheels like they are in the pic haha, like 20” wide with a +144 offset haha.

I think they are supposed to be 20 x 24" wide.

Just think, they could be using 16" wide wheel spacers...

You don't spend that kind of money to throw a load stones in the back...
It's just easier if you think of it as a really really tall range rover.

As for front driveshaft, I drive a few trucks without 4wd that are very useful trucks.

Had the Passlock issue pop up again, something was faulty and didn't feel like going thru the same nightmare I went thru last fall. So, had someone with an HP Tuner account come out and tune out the Passlock signal input from PCM. They tuned rhe rest or the truck and now I can't keep my foot outta the throttle, total of $175.

The front axle is powered by Bluetooth

Drove it the past 2 days. Truck will only blow through the defrost lol. Rear air blows hot as hell. And a weird vibration between 45-55 that I can't figure out. But so far I like driving it

Wish I had an extra 3G's floating around. Found a 06 Suburban Z71 with 112k on the odometer, looks great other than the bumpers being rusty. Nothing a new replacement wouldn't fix, or even some beefier aftermarket ones. And the $3G would be enough to cover those too, as they only want $2200 for it!

I'm thinking it's a pissed off wife that's trying to sell her husband's play toy while he's off on vacation with the girlfriend... would serve him right...

 

[04Huck]

Shit, 06 with 112k for 2200? I’d be all over that

so, it's a regular NBS

The rear air is probably an actuator or a faulty actuator controller. I have the same issue but I only blow cold, and it's still 30's here lol.

Only blowing through the defrost is probably also a door or something.

I got the front fixed. Recalibrated the actuators. The rear I'm leaning towards expansion valve. Hasn't worked in years from what I've been told. I'm not and hvac guy lol. That's just my guess

I cleaned up the OEM Escalade 22’s I picked up last week they came out pretty nice, discovered a crack on the back of one rim tho, found a place that can fix it, dropping the rim off tomorrow.

Here’s the crack

They look good man, can’t wait to see them on.

Also what kind of places do you all call to get rims repaired like that, I’ve never had to do it and have no idea where to even start looking if I had to.

Thanks, I just searched on Google for rim repair and found a bunch actually, there’s a place an hr away that can do it, sent them so pics it’s around $130-$150 to fix it, they dismount the tire, mount and re-balance it to
