What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[89Suburban]

About what my friend?

I thought you have been into VLOM territory before lol.

 

[89Suburban]

Do you have parts number still by chance?
Looking at Rockauto, it's hard to find VLOM or VLOM Gaskets for 2008 6.2 ( non-dod ), it lists different looking parts, mostly complete VLOM plates it seems

I guess intake manifold gaskets would be another good idea while i'm down there?

Yes intake manifold gaskets too. I just realized you are talking about a 6.2 I have never touched one of them I was discussing 5.7. So it may be different I don't know, sorry.

I do. You can replace the whole cover with a new gasket for $40:

More Information for GM GENUINE 12598832

Might as well replace the oil pressure sender and intake gaskets while you're in there.

Woah thats cheaper than i thought! Totally worth just swapping it than trying to get the gasket out

Going to get list of parts ready, order everything and then choose a weekend to take the top off and give her some long needed spa.
Thank you folks!
Will keep you posted on the progress

Lots of plans for the winter while fishing season is out, boat stored and Erie being cold windy *itch

My new wheels should be coming early next week, then I will install the TPMS sensors and go and get new rubber put on them in the next couple weeks. I might wait and see what, if any, black Friday deals can be had for tires.

I need to but new lug nuts. What y'all think would look best with these black wheels with machined face? I was thinking black, because the area the nut is in is black so then it'd blend in and not be noticeable, but then I though chrome because I have a bit of chrome on the vehicle, just not on the wheels. Then what style, acorn, splined, hex, flat top (wife's Acadia 20" wheels came with chromed flat top lug nuts).

So I'm guessing your vote is black lug nuts?

Chrome flat tops.

 

[gooffeyguy]

Chrome flat tops.

Is that what's on yours?

The wife's Acadia has the factory chrome flat tops. I might wait till after I get the wheels and mock one up with some of her lug nuts.

I don't like the construction of hers though. The outside chrome is a shell that's either crimped or tack welded at the base and I've found that after using an impact wrench on them they loosen up.

The Acadia wheels. 20" and are "cladded"

Is this a new thing, moderator approval on our posts?

 

[Fless]

Not new. Most times it's a URL, and other times a pic that triggers it. I'm not sure how they're chosen for the queue but it seems to be random.

Don't take it personally.
