I surmise you are correct. I dont even see the OBS on the street nearly as often either. 20 years went by fast for me....
What did you do to your OBS GMT400 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

Glad to hear you got it working. Not unusual for the compressor to leak a little. If it lasts a season you're golden
Still working as of today so I guess I'm in decent shape. I was expecting to have to replace a bunch of things.

Cap rotor and wires today. The old cap and rotor were toast, i think they were original from 94. Wires weren't too bad.

Yeah for their HD cap and rotor with brass contacts and the better wire set. Pretty solid.

i haven't done much with mine in a while. ordered new tires for it and im debating on taking off my diy cat back and doing a stainless catback. ive always had flowmaster but im not a fan of the force 2 they offer for a v8. so im thinking gibson or magnaflow as i prefer more growl than the force 2 has.

Looks like a pro job from here.
Probably not a good idea to drive it. If they shear while you're driving will make an awful mess.

Thanks! Certainly for the time and money invested I'm good with it.
Got to throw some sound deadening and foam insulation in there too which was nice. Definitely less heat radiating from the roof, and I'd swear its a bit quieter in the cabin.

Not many had the split bench that I have seen. Most have been bucket seats.

Ordered ad244 tp upgrade and it came in busted up so amazon sent me a replacement and the plastic cover was broken on that one too...
I guess ill try to run it and see what happens.
I have not found a how to with pics that i felt like was super clear on the wiring for a tbi truck yet. Afaik there is an ignition wire that needs to have a resistor which came with the painless pigtail i ordered and a sensing wire that i can route to my junction box.
Then the bracket needs slight modification and a longer belt.
