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

what's crumpled zone for the dash? cheap brittle plastic?

I think he's trolling. He also said I weakened my 20s by decladding them.

I honestly had to look up decladding.. wtf was gm thinking gluing on a hub cap looking thing. that's some Aliexpress looking stuff haha.


but make your wheels weaker? I got nothing. doesn't feel troll thou.

 

[j91z28d1]

so are the motor mounts hydraulic filled? how come they don't leak when the tear? on other hydraulic mounts they leak a orange fluid out so you know they are ripped.





blah.. 3in of a random knife broken off in a tire.. guess I'm getting those continentals sooner than later lol.

I got a rattle in the rear end that is driving me FKN NUTZ!!!!!!!!!

Only on washboard surfaces like rough concrete pads. Sounds like the right rear. I found a nut missing off a rear sway bar link, swore that was it. Replaced it, still there. No play in the links at all. No play in shock mounts or hardware. Spare tire heat shield is intact, properly mounted and secure.

Replaced worn exhaust hanger bushing, still there. I got pissed off and removed the spare and winch over the weekend. I was under there pounding on the frame/exhaust to try and duplicate the noise. The vapor solenoid on the rear crossmember above the spare has a little bit of looseness but I don't think that is it. I am getting some rattling from the rear bumper cover against the steel under bumper/hitch. And driving without the spare the rattle is still there.

My right tail light housing had a rattle due to worn out rubber grommets. I used a few dabs of silicone adhesive on the ports to tighten that up. Rattle is still there.

I am thinking of injecting some silicone adhesive between the bumper step and frame to create a cushion and see if that clears it up. Grrrr.....

Click your park brake on a bit and see if it stops…

It has a diving board type of sound

red neck that camera phone under there with some duck tape and record it

1. Mine's lowered so it's not as heavy on the wheels.

2. My air is pre-rounded so it fits the inside of the tire properly for complete support.

3. Despite living a high-risk drivestyle, I suck my gut in and take the extra slack out of my seatbelt.

I'd rather you hang out the back recording with the tailgate up. I'll have one hand on the wheel and the other on your bootstrap.

Did my Auto (CJ2) to Manual (CJ3) climate control conversion!

Basics are working as you would expect EXCEPT..

Rear seat temperature control goes from +0 to +12. Not sure how/if that works.
No Outside air temp display in dash, shows ---. I have to wire that up. (J2-4, L-GN/BK to J2-9) The '07 pigtail I had was missing the wire, so I need to get an extra terminal.

HOW TO: Convert CJ2 automatic -> CJ3 manual climate controls

that does seem interesting. why is it done? cheaper to replace or just dislike the automatic hvac stuff.

Appreciate it. Really want to do this.

I want knobs, I hate the auto crap and the digital temp adjustments that move at a snails pace.

I will say my auto doesn't work worth a crap. I find myself adjusting all the time. my other car that has auto I just set a temp and forgot.

I could see swapping it over annoying
