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

[Just Fishing]

Cannot believe you’re doing this while it’s still in the truck. Lol

Yeah, it's easier when on the stand for sure.

I'm planning to do this once more with a new crank.
If i'm lucky i'll get some use of the hoe during the winter...
Springtime would be best.

I have to remember to not let the garage heater kill me...
Doing this later would be much safer.

Rods all torqued.
I just set the thrust bearing.
the spec is a little looser, but still within the specified spec

I got about .0045 (I have to double check the number once more but i know it was under .007)...
(Using a dial indicator)

I didn’t think about that one. Every damn piece of glass had advertising in that movie, plus all of the FRS’s they had in place.

Before I forget to say it…Merry Christmas!

Last night into this morning I finished up installing the following new rear end parts:
Rear Springs
Upper/Lower Spring Insulators
Upper/Lower Control Arms
Jounce Bumpers
Stabilizer Shaft Link

Now I need to pull the rear bumper cover, then clean and prep the bumper itself before putting another coat of rust preventer and a coat of primer on the body. After it dries I’ll hit it with a couple coats of underbody coating. If I’m not too high on paint fumes by that point, I’ll get the surface rust cleaned off those rotors. Too many days spent hugging and sweating all over the hubs. It shouldn’t take much more than a scotch pad or a piece of extra fine steel wool and a can of extra flammable brake cleaner.
Shoot! Hold that thought, I need to hook up the electrical connectors at the main fuse block so I can actually open the rear Liftgate (without drilling a hole in it to gain access to the release). Grrr!

Happy “Presents Day” to the forum. Enjoy unwrapping all those gifts you filthy animals!

Looks great under there. Love the look of new, shiny parts!

Merry Christmas to you!

I can't see this crack from the driver's position, even when I lean forward over the steering wheel, only from outside looking down through the glass. It might've been there for a few months, but I just noticed it. It doesn't rattle yet. I'm sure it will get bigger though.

You can epoxy it to fill it and keep it from spreading. Stuff a folded towel under the center area to support it to reduce the stresses on that part and the front left corner of the passenger side airbag cutout. That'll be the next to crack.

I used J-B Weld Plastic Bonder. It's available in Black. You mix it 50/50 and the color is a near-perfect match for the Ebony dash. If it bothers you, adjust the mix ratio to a hair to make it a perfect match.

Merry Christmas everyone !

I own a 2007 GMC Yukon SLT - had since new ( has around 70K miles )
I am looking for a drivers side original factory OEM floor mat ( carpeted - kinda yellowish tan color )

All the rest other mats still look like new - just need the driver side front. Sources ? Having not much luck online search thus far.

I may consider one of those all weather sets ( rubberish ) for front if factory OEM is not available.

Any info on either is much appreciated - thank you in advance

You won’t find a single mat, might try www.stockinteriors.com to buy a set. They will send you color samples for free to match up.

Welcome to the forum - adam from Michigan. Where do you call home or rather the state where you park your Yukon.
Have you checked eBay or any of the local LKQ salvage yards in your area? Ever looked into the WeatherTech floor mats? I love mine, they have kept my OEM carpet floor mats look as new as the day I bought the truck. My father has them in his Denali as well - his is the Tan interior like yours.

I live in the PNW ( about 1 hr drive north of Seattle )
Retiring next year and moving back to Ohio, where I grew up as a kid ( GM kid here - my dad was a millwright @ the Delco Moraine brake plant in Dayton OH )

I have done alittle research on Weathertech floor liners, I think I am going with the front set for both Pass and Driver side. Much nastier snow / slush in Ohio than Seattle ( rarely snows here - except a ton up in the mountains )

I have the husky exact fit and they are great. I looked at weathertech but found the husky fit the bill better for me. Idk if the k2xx is the same as nnbs, but my buddy has the weathertech in his 08 Yukon and the passenger side slides around. Doesn't Have the little nubs on the back. The husky does. Mine don't slide around at all and fit great

Those look really nice and also look like a perfect fit. Thanks for the input ... I will research those as well.

I see various stages / price of Husky: Xact contour or weatherbeater or classic style etc ... which did you choose ?

Looks like good better best options and pricing. I hope they have color besides black as my interior is yellowish tan

those are the weatherbeater's, the weathertec have been known to fold at the corner edges might not happen to everyone but it happens a lot I had some weathertec ended up throwing them in the garbage and bought husky's

I have the Weather tech liners in my 13 and they do slide around. I am in the process of coming up with some anchors for them to stop it. If they hadn’t come with the truck I would look elsewhere.

+1 on something other than the Weathertechs. I bought my Tahoe with them, otherwise, I'd have something else such as the Huskys. As the others have said, the Weathertechs slide around and the kickpanel walls fall in.

I’m sure the Eagle Klaw anchors will work. I use them on all my carpeted mats including the rug I use in the cargo area. I just checked their website and they show them being used for Weathertechs. They’re awesome, highly recommended.

Eagle Klaw Floor Mat Clips

Keep your floor mats from sliding with super easy to use Eagle Klaw car mat retention anchors and keep your car safe and clean. No need to drill or cut holes. To install, Just Step On It.

I’d bet you can use an Eagle Klaw to hold the side walls up as well as on the bottom to keep them from sliding around.

Another recommendation for the Husky’s.. though I have a GMT800, same deal. The Husky’s are just better. And less expensive to boot, when compared with the weather tech. All they have is their name.
