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

[DutchSchultz]

Well today I replaced rear blower motor and resistor. Gave out last week and I don't like my little ones sweating. Cool $300 cause that rear blower motor resistor for auto temp made of unobtainium

Can I ask where you ordered from and what brand? I hear the Chinese ones are hit and miss

 

[blueinkd]

Bought a vdo/continental rear blower motor from AZ, transferred my old wheel. I also picked up a standard motors resistor for auto temp. That one hurt me as it was only available in one flavor!!

I saw the price on those, crazy. Is it a complete little computer or something? I looks like a module in the pics.

I need to check that on my 02. Every once in awhile after a really heavy rain I get wet carpet on the passenger side.

My windshield was leaking and it was going down the pillar onto the passenger floor, new windshield sealed very heavy solved that issue. Pop off the trim run a hose and take a look.

I replaced my blower motor in the front with a GM oem part, the one that does not require a cover thank god because the back screw sucks, and it took a dump 5 months later...everything’s garbage these days lol.

I'm about to order my second for mine, for the rear not front. ******* annoying but I literally love driving it more my wife's Audi Q7 and that's a beautiful vehicle!

The things we do for love

My wife has a rav 4 and I still usually jump in the Tahoe first. My ‘new’ blower motor basket has been flopping around on bumps, the motor makes a bad noise on and off and the wiring on it gets so hot im surprised it didn’t start a fire. Unbelievable.

Trying to beat the heat!
Vinyl wrapped my sunroof today. Figured a window pointing straight at the sun is going to make the inside hotter. With the shade shut I figure it’s at least a few square feet of black still, so now it’s beige.

Would have loved to match the 382e paint code, but this was about as close as I saw, then I figured error on the light side.
With the sunroof I figure it won’t be seen much anyway, but then I got a dumb idea…
Would it look awful to try to wrap the grill surround with this stuff? Sample roll sitting on the bumper… maybe plastidip the grill.

Would it look awful to wrap the grill surround with this stuff? I think so. I don’t think there’s any color that will do much better overall than matching the paint. I’m a lil skeerd of jackin it up scuffing and painting, but I’d like to kill the chrome. Either way I’m thinking to tear this garbage off in a day or 2

You can always buy an aftermarket Denali grill and paint it, they’re not too expensive. That’s what I did. But I had destroyed my stock grill trying to remove the chrome anyway.

Sway bar links. Other side was worse. Did the bushings too but they were looking ok. Energy Suspension.

They make great stuff, good choice.

Had a good evening in the Hoe... Got to say the BBP tune is starting to really show its teeth... Takes a little while to get its full bearings, but damn thing is feeling great now.. Oh and I had a Borla XR1 installed, now it sounds cool too. Pics from the other day when I installed the esky appliques. Now the great dilemma of removing the fender flares or leaving them for now.... funnnnnn

Leave the flares remove the side molding

Can you get a sound clip of the xr1? Which one did you use, the round case or the oval? I had an oval case xr1 on my old Silverado with longtubes and no cats and loved the sound. I want to replace the MBRP muffler my Tahoe has now with another xr1 and I am curious of the sound with stock manifolds and cats.

Get some cerecote or similar product on those flares and you might be happier with them

Swapped coolant reservoirs to hopefully put a end to a very weird little seep puddling up under the tank

Well phase 1 sucked, tore that off. Phase 2, plastidiping center, I’m going to keep though. I’ve had my grill block in for all the previous pics, mounted in the same way, but the chrome did a lot to hide it. Tucked into the garage it’s more noticeable than outside, but still stands out compared to being behind chrome

buy this stuff, rub it all over your plastic and it will look better then new. my running boards were pretty much white. and its been a month or so since i installed it, still looks clean and shinny.

I would also remove the door moulding and if it were mine i would paint the fender flares to match the blue.Would look awesome in my opinion like the z71 look.
