Getting the Genuine GM Intermediate Steering Shaft Makes a Difference
If you are experiencing the horrible clunking sound on your Tahoe, Suburban, etc, and have figured out it might be the intermediate steering shaft, then sure, you could order a Dorman or other after-market part to install. But, many times those just don't work right; and sometimes if you want the part to perform as expected--for a GM vehicle--you need to get the OEM GM or AC Delco part. This genuine GM steering shaft with the stabilizer clip fixed the problem immediately; and took less than 20 minutes to install. All it took was a 15mm socket, 15mm wrench, a pair of needle-nose pliers and a little all purpose grease. The clunking sound whenever I pulled in or out of the driveway, or on slow moving turns, and other times too, is now gone; and has not been heard again after installing this part.
