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

[Sam Harris]

id love to show you the lack of traction lol the track is already open sorta. temps have yet to reach 45 on a open sunday. the one day it was warm enough the ground was still soaking wet, so they didnt open.

Got my 305/45r22s on yesterday, damn tire just rubs the bracket for the control arm. Found out this fun fact about halfway home, little upset, but didn't gore anything. Gonna space it out until I can get some more offset wheels. Otherwise they look amazing! My lips are rolled, so it'll just have to look like a funky 2wd until I get new wheels eventually. I'm happy with them though!

Went to the Junkyard this past weekend. Was mostly looking for a dashboard for my Ram, but hey you know how it is... won't pass up a good part if ya seen one, am I right?

The trucks they had JUST GOTTEN IN on Friday were already robbed of the dashboards by the time I got there Saturday morning.. not really all that surprised, I guess. So I got the hood hinges I needed, found a couple different overhead consoles and snagged the wiring harness, a door latch cable for one of the rear doors, and a full set of Kicker door speakers. Planning on throwing them in the Tahoe.... if I can make the 6x9's fit (and if they work).

As I was leaving, I remembered that the Tahoe needed a jack and the jack tools.... I must've looked through 10 GMT800s of various body styles searching for them damn things until I finally found the jack.... then searched through another 5 more when I finally found the tools. Then, I walked past a black esky with the rear vent panels still intact.... DIBS! Also remembered that my brother-in-law needed a new dash bezel. So I grabbed one for him.... turns out, it was a double-DIN bezel and he doesn't want a double-din radio. (so @Tonyrodz , I appreciate the offer, but I won't be needing the bezel anymore ).

Got a couple more things, but I can't remember for the life of me what they were. Totalled out at about 80 bucks though.

Forgot to get pics.

All that for $80 is a score!!

might be the miles on it. iirc it has like 60 k on it. ive seen em with over a 100 and the price drops. most what im finding is under 50 k miles.

some of these people are nuts, asking 20 k for a 2010 20k on its clock lol yeah you can keep that car pal. its still used. for sure the factory tires are beat. with or with out tread on em. aka timed out.

 

[Scottydoggs]

DAYUUUMMM!! 6.2!! I hope you get it. Good luck!

me too!!!

ive yet to call and see what that car will do to my insurance, did find out we got open garages here for 75 a month. no way i can let a nice car sit in my parking lot. next to find out if i fit and like it enough. and its got a moon roof, from what i hear they kill 2-3 inches of head room. im 6'6 and will need to wear a helmet at some point inside this car.....you know it will be ran down a 1/4 mile track. so i got a few hurdles to get past still. finding one with no moon roof and a auto seems to be difficult. if i was 20 years old, id be all over that manual shift, but im well past that crap...i really used to like a manual, but after driving a roll off truck for 10 years and like a million miles. im done with shifting.

regal would have to go, and the hoe would become the daily driver. i dont need 3 cars. sadly unless i find some kid that wants to buy a modded regal, its gonna get a part out. and that makes me kinda sad, but its the only way ill come close to recouping what ive got invested into a 20 year old car.

well after seeing it in person i know why so cheap, its got door dings up and down both side the car, small dents on every panel of the car, scratches all over too, needs brakes and tires. guys like well we can work on the price.... i walked 16 K for a car that needs paint and body work? no thanks. says hes got a black one for abut 20 k with 20,000 miles hes gonna bring over this after noon. so ill look at it. but i really dont want black, i really want a blue one. but orange would work, or the slate grey.

the good news is my lanky ass fits pretty good.

I've actually done this project more than a year ago, but only cared to take pix last weekend.

This is an Android unit, I think it was around $200. So far, I couldn't be happier. It does everything I need and beyond. I installed a bunch of apps from Google Play, including Waze, Torque Pro, Maps, Weather, Poweramp, you name it.

It is connected to this amp:
https://www.clarion.com/us/en/products-personal/marine/XC2510/index.html

Sound quality is good for my ears. I connected it to existing steering wheel controls. It even has a dash cam (last 2 pix). And I connected it to a rear view camera, which was a royal PITA. More on that later.

All specs are in my build thread.

So would the shocks off a nnbs work on our trucks? Found a guy with rear 5100s for 80 bucks got like 5k miles in em.

2004 Z71 Suburban Green I have a few upgrades done.

 

[brian.roberts.1293]

So can anyone tell me what this is so I can order it. This is a picture of my windshield above my passenger door.

If it's the stripping above the windshield--afaik--that can only be replaced if the windshield comes out.

I can tell you what that is. It's the windshield above your passenger door.

Technically I think it's referred to as the upper windshield trim. Google that and you should find some options.

That would suck if you had to part it out

Sounds pretty awesome! I’ll have to check out your build thread. I’ve been saying hell no to replacing the factory unit on my ‘03, mostly due to cost, with all the cables/ adapters to get steering wheel controls, etc.. but would really like a backup camera. Does this also retain factory chimes?

Nice! Was it this one?

It's a toss up for me between that one, and these other two....

Glad to hear you're happy with the Joying though... that helps in the decision making process.

That would suck if you had to part it out

what it comes down to is, im not giving away 2k in performance parts. so ill take it all off and recoup, everyone always asks me, why you have all these boxes of old parts, those are the stock parts, never know when i might need these again.

if someone was to buy it as is. id have to get 3,000 no less, its also coming with a set of snow tires on 17's and the pair of mounted dr's. its also got a new 1400 dollar tranny in it. less then 5k on that. everything under the car is new over the last 2 years.

 

[HiHoeSilver]

Finally got to be a balmy 31* today, so I did my overdue oil change. Blackstone has been telling me to push my OCIs, which I've said I won't, but well......here we are. 5797 miles. They told me to run 6k. I don't like the feeling, or seeing that number. Got a good sample so we'll see what the report says in a while.

Mobil 1 5W30 high milage (149119 on the rig)
Mobil 1 M1-107A filter

Catch can about normal (though not nearly as milkshake like last time it was winter)

Added stainless scrubber for the first time. I put a little piece in between the filters in the baffle, and the rest of the chunk in the can.

There's one filter under here ...

One on top....

Capped...

In the can.

Already anxious to see if it catches any more this time around. It can't hurt, I suppose.

Pressure looking good, will report lab results. This will be my third analysis in a row.

Totally worth 3k imo. Total sleeper
