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

[Keviebear86]

NNBS upgrade is front rotors, calipers & brackets, pads from the GMT900 (07-14) trucks. It is straight bolt on. The rotors are 13" so you do need a minimum of 17" wheels to run them. Here's a good thread, there are a few more as well. The SS lines have also proven very beneficial.

Perfect. My rotors are warped already so I had planned on replacing the fronts soon. I have Hostile Sprocket 20" wheels so I'm sure I have plenty of clearance for the rotors. Looks like I'll be doing this upgrade sooner than expected! Now I just have to source the SS lines.

The most common lines are stop tech, power stop, or Goodridge.

DO IT!

Yeah I'm working on finding everything myself. I was looking on rock auto and a few others. A lot of them sell the calipers and you get the brackets and hardware with it. Make sure it says they come with it. Then all you need is rotors and pads. To do the swap and then the ss lines for good measure.

Now the question is, do I get the SS lines for the 2000-2006 or 2007-2014 Tahoe?

Pretty sure you stick with 00-06

Agreed. And check your rpo brake code. There's a 5 and 6 line kit depending. You either have one or two lines up over the rear axle.

Yeah, thx to Christie. He bumped the gas tax up by .25 or .24 cents a gal.

Shit, your gas is almost as much as ours now, i would take to trip out 84 to pa, then shoot off 1st exit into jersey which was cheap asf.... or if coming up from gsp, 17 or 287 and make sure i filled up right before state line....years ago.....

that was many years ago. i sold my 03 gmc 2500 hd when reg 87 broke 5 bucks a gallon. and that was 8 or 9 years ago now easy. Sasquatch here , my brother, he used to hit the state line on 17 and gas up as well, its not been worth the trip for a long long time now.

classic BS tax too. when you voted that tax had a question that was written so you voted wrong. cleaver douche bags they are. it was either yes or no, should the gas tax be used for all transit aka trains. or just the roads and bridges......trains dont run on gas, i dont ride a train, and the roads and bridges need real re building bad. but the dumb ***** in this state voted to use it all over. and im not seeing to much rebuilding going on here. im still wondering who the hell gets to pocket all them billions they are collecting.

and you know they will never drop that tax now that its here, just like the tpk and parkway, the tolls will be gone after its all paid for, tolls never left, the tolls went up and up too. all BS and lies.

 

[TheAutumnWind]

You complain at all?

not yet, but I intend to.

just sent a complaint it says they will get back to me in a day. We shall see.

JL4 has 6 lines two over the rear axle rather then one.

More of big company's deceptive practices. I think @Rocket Man had a similar experience with them. On the stock seats, sides are vinyl, and the tops are leather. So, leather seating surfaces. They do look good on your Hoe. How were the clips? Good, or did they suk?

I've been to their shop [Seat Shop] and they are a mom and pop type operation at best. Looked like 3-4 people taking orders and one of the owners shop dog laid out in the floor lol. There is no actual store front and when you walk in you walk right into where their office desks are. They had a lot of stuff just laying around labeled "competitor" so it would be unfortunate if he actually got something that's not their product. I only got seat foam from them and that worked out well.

Anyone flush their hydroboost? I figure this rig is probably due. Might do that in the next couple of days since I'm waiting around for rockauto to send me brackets...

The way that a$$hole wrote that tax bill, no one can repeal it, so it's here forever. I don't like talking politics, but he was a real pos, very arrogant. Let's see what Murphy does for us.

Got a response from them. They want to exchange them.

Murphy's trash too. cant trust a dem at all, stand there say one thing do another, lie after lie. every dem state is run into the ground, high crime, taxes and the likes.

and if half he said he wants to do happens im moving lol

and hes gonna **** this state up even more. trust me i like my pot but hes never gonna get that deal passed, theres already lists of towns that wont allow sales. even tho its free money for the state via taxes on it. ask CA how much tax they take in on weed, its astronomical. could rebuild every crappy bridge in 10 years time easy i bet and ditch the gas tax lol

Well, tablet install version 1.0 is finished. Simple velcro strips holds it securely. There is a very good panel recreation shop here in town that I'll be having them fab that section so the tablet fits behind it and looks more professional. But all in all works great. Just need to work on getting a better stereo set up.

Gas is going up another .04 cents a gal in Oct! Pretty soon NY gas will be cheaper then NJ.

3/8 hose connected to a 5/8 hose running off the low pressure reutrn to a drain bucket. It works great and empties the power steering reservoir quick. Don't let it run dry or you mess up the pump.

Here's the write up on it.

its supposed to drop when winter rolls around wtf?

Yeah, i know summer blend/winter blend my dick

 

[Scottydoggs]

is more supply/demand. people use more fuel over summer, so they jack the price up to keep you from buying gas, winter the price drops cause theres less demand.

driving a sc car for the last 9 years, i cant tell if theres a difference or not in the blends, ( i cant tell you all 93 is not equal) i buy from one place only unless im way out of town.

funny how the same tune but gas from a different place can cause new found kr, go back to the good place and the kr goes away. things that make you say hhmmmm.

ive yet to try 87 in the regal. being i got meth injection now, im my mind im thinking the meth will make up for the 6 points lower octane. im just chicken still. ive chipped up one piston already, dont want another engine swap.

this will ruin your week.

took the head with it. exhaust valve was passing air like it was open.

for those who never chipped a piston before, this was wot top of second into third in the shift it started to make this pinging / crunching sounds for about 15 seconds, even after i let off cause im like thats not sounding good.

1/2 mile later the cel went off for a misfire but i already knew i smashed the spark plug.
