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

Continued to de-badge, I am working a split shift and have been sleeping during the day. Also ran a can of Seafoam thru the gas tank and one in the crankcase today, washed all the pine pollen off it again, I hate this time of the year in TN, my white Tahoe looks yellow everyday....

Welp drove around a whole lot... installed a Corsa Touring in my truck (picked it up today) and uhhh O yeah met up with Justin and got her tuned! Needless to say I am very happy with the tune so far. The truck woke right up! She pulls like a bastard. Highway driving was greatly improved... cruising speed took minimal pedal and passing was quick to react and crisp. Now for intresting info- I cleared my average fuel to test the ride up and ride back home. My drive up to meet Justin my truck averaged 16.3 mpg. The ride home with simmilar traffic conditions it went up to 18.6 mpg. Now this is no where near scientific data just observations from the onboard. So now that she has more power and is much more fun to drive; hopefully she will sound much better this weekend.

::Warning:: Make sure to watch your speedo after tune! Your truck will be getting up to speed much quicker then you think!

I changed my front shocks, now I have KYB's all around...Rides great!

Installed bilstein 5100s out back:

Yes I know I need shorter sway bar links but I needed to wait for the new springs to settle before finding/building some.

 

[Travieso]

hey max how's the ride with the new shocks ?

also lmk on shorter sway bar links im thinking i may need this also

 

[Redhoe01]

From that pic, it looks like the shocks would be an easy install. On your sway bar, I am assuming it is aftermarket since its red, do these trucks just come with a thinner one from the factory? If so, how is your aftermarket one? do you like the results from it? Sorry for the ignorance of the set up, I have auto ride so I dont even bother looking under mine. I want to rip it out one day.

Rides great, the stiffer valving made a good bit of difference with these new coils it really soaks up the big ass potholes and bumps now.

Shocks were kind of a pita since they have such a strong charge it was a ***** to compress them. My sway bar is an eibach, significantly bigger than stock and made a big difference in handling on this big *****. I used to have autoride on my truck as well, been about 1 year since I pitched everything.

My gf and I installed her new front brakes, ATE slotted rotors and Hawk LTS pads. Took us about 3.5 hours to explain everything to her and change the front brakes with hand tools, including a run to the local Checkers for some tools and a torch and a stop at Jimmy Johns for lunch. Just finished bedding them in and it stops great!

My Alpine Iva-w505 came in today so I got to figure a way to fit the DD Alpine in my 02 tahoe, fun, fun, fun.

any chance there is a write up on how you or someone did that. I researched this and found a guy that found a way to override the message and put in aftermarket shocks but it was on a 2500. Maybe its the same.

Not too difficult, remove old shock using a 13/16 ratchet/box end and reinstall new shocks, these ones I installed were just really stiff due to the 255/70 valving.

 

[General Stalin]

I got a BB tune today
