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

[Rocket Man]

View attachment 278347 Finally received these two washers that are supposed to fix the center brake line isssue with the goodridge kit. Here’s the part # etc. I have no idea how they go in or where, no directions provided. Will have to wait till I get around to it now…

EDIT: they say I only need one, but shipped 2 anyway

I heard the fitting is too deep so it won’t screw down tight. The washer must fit inside the fitting and it will be obvious which way it goes, just match the curve of the inside of the fitting. This is the fitting, you can see how that washer goes. How did you get them to send the washers?
Edit: I went back in the thread and see you contacted Goodridge so I just emailed them and asked for help getting these.

Try some graphite powder, it comes in a little bottle that you can puff into the cylinder to loosen up and lubricate it. I know that sounds dirty...

Excellent! This should work perfectly! I wish I would have contacted them too! I threw out the line after all the trouble with it, and ended up paying for a custom one. (Oh well.. no leak..!)

Exactly. The fitting bottoms out before it seals onto the line. This will bring the seal out enough to actually make contact with the line, and compression -fit seal it.

Hydroboost is awesome! Until the damn thing starts leaking. I'm on my 2nd attempt to reseal. Still leaking...

Most of the hydroboost conversion articles and videos that I’ve seen recommend getting a new hydroboost unit rather than a used one, which postpones the leaking. Which reseal kits/methods have you tried? I’m gathering information as I know that it will leak at some point.

I purchased 2 different seal kits on Amazon. Figure 8 and round seals were replaced.

odd. You can use threaded rod and fender washers and nuts. I pressed mine by hand with a bunch of lube... They are split so its pretty easy...

8 degrees of knock regard at anything above half throttle. Feels slowwww

If I had more lube on them It be a damn party over here. I tried easing them in gently. Unfortunately I don't have a vise. My neighbor does but he is out of town.

I wanted to do this conversion, but it seemed like more work and expense than I wanted to deal with. Can I ask approximately what you’ll be spending in parts, buying new..? Imagine it will be pretty significant. Were those pedals also new? (They looked it!)

I had that same code p0332 come up after a full knock sensor job. We used Delphi knock sensors and a new harness from RA. Pissed me off. I cleared code and hasn't came back on like 300 miles ago

I already got a reply from Goodridge, they’re sending the spacer to me.

It kinda looks like you pressed the sleeve into the bushing there before pressing the bushing into the end link..? I’d definitely do it in the opposite order. Not sure if that’s what you’re doing..?

Nice. Yeah they should come with! Dammit!

The metal sleeve slips right on. I just joined them to keep track of them. I tried pressing it into the sway bar without the sleeve several times.

I paid $38 per pedal new. Amazon has since dropped the price to $28 each. I wanted to get the GM pedal while it was still available.

If you follow this video over to YouTube he has a complete parts list in the description. The hydroboost unit is less expensive on RockAuto than Amazon, but it’s not cheap.
