Figured I'd make up a small "build thread" for the 05' GMC Yukon.
Started out with the wife driving this from 2005-2008.... 01' Tahoe LT.
The 01' Tahoe was getting up in miles and we wanted to find a little bit newer NBS SUV with 3rd row seating. Found this loaded Carbon Metallic/Dark Spiral Gray 05' GMC Yukon SLT at a local dealer for a great price with only 58k on it. Had everything we were looking for.... Gray leather, Bose/6 disc, sun/entertainment pkg. (sunroof/2nd row buckets), 3rd row, etc. Only thing it was lacking was it had stock 16s instead of the 17s.
Dealer shots...
Serious "Autoride" rake...
Colormatched the GMC emblem. Added clear corners and cleared OEM headlights.
Picked up (5) NNBS polished Tahoe 20s cheap.... But never got a chance to run them. Ended up flipping them for ONLY a $10 profit.... :crazy:
Got tired of the nasty rake.... Ordered McGaughy's 3" rear drop spring kit.
Installed... Went from 37" rear fender height to 33 3/4" on stock 265/70/16s. Completely decranked the front stock keys. No bolts. Got it tinted along the way and installed a 14" Magnaflow into the stock exhaust system.
Picked up some NNBS GMC 20s/tires for a good deal off CL.
Installed....
And, currently..... August 2015.
