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

quick, we need to get that front drive shaft back in the truck.
What are you having them do, fix that y pipe?

The bung on the ps lo g tube got stripped out. I wanna get them to weld another one in.
Ahh, I just read your thread. I’d take that driveshaft along and see if they can adjust (or bend) the y-pipe so it fits, like Tyler said.
Absolutely!! 2 birds one stone.
replaced the blower resistor and blower resistor harness on the 05, but still has same issue as the old one, adjusts fan speed 1/2/3 fine but 3/4 are both nigh speed and stays at high speed until you turn it off and start over so I am thinking it must be the control panel.
re-installed some led bar fog lights I had for it and fixed the bracket so they would stay where they are supposed to, before they would turn and point the wrong direction because the bracket was worn out.
and discovered the steering gear box is leaking looks like it's probably the output shaft, it needs a new pitman arm anyway so probably going to try and find a dry used one at the junkyard and need to buy a pitman arm puller

Two steps forward, one step back. Pretty normal lol.
the steering box looks pretty straightforward to replace the seals I might just go that route instead

I would not waste any money on a used steering box. Get you a blue top steering box, best steering box money can buy, Autozone, Napa, etc can't come close to it.

Blue top, who is that from? I have a redhead ported box in my RCSB and it's amazing! Would not hesitate to get one for the Tahoe either.

Better get a super beefy pitman arm puller. Those ******* DO NOT wanna come off without a fight--although you are in Cali, so it might be easier. MAYBE.....

Use the puller to apply pressure then whack the arm with a hammer.
ya it's gonna be a couple weeks or longer before I get to it, it's not a major leak but it's making a mess of the undercarriage, no rust here

Red top used to be the shit, lately I've been hearing bad reviews from those guys. I believe the guy that sells the blue top used to work for red top.

Funny how that always seems to happen, the prices look good I'll definitely consider them when the time comes.
Thanks for sharing!
