YEAH.... JUST MAKE SURE WHEEL IS STRAIGHT... EASY TO REPLACE... USUALLY TAKES 5-10 MIN.

TECHS GET TO FLAG BETWEEN 1 HR, TO 1.5 HR. THOUGH.

DEPENDING ON IF IT IS WARRANTY OR NOT

GMpartsdirect.com is a good site. Every now and then, I actually use them for my customers whenever GM has my parts backordered.

I highly reccomend the New Intermediate Steering Shaft! WE did 3 today alone. However I still havce stock on the Lube Kits but.....we did a lube kit on Monday and the guy came back today and got the new designed shaft.

You can lube the bastard until Jesus walks again...and it'll still knock!

I LOVE this. I put about 100 miles on the truck today just listening to it NOT make noise around town. I think it cost me 60 shipped to my door and 10 minutes to put it in. WELL worth it.
