someotherguy Posted March 10, 2023 Report Share Posted March 10, 2023 2006 Silverado SS - looked them up on Rock and had 4 different choices from GM Genuine listings - obviously 15295839 isn't, 15295840 isn't, 15774514 isn't.. so the last one on the list, 15295837 appears the only possibility and it did look "close" from the picture. Got it in hand and the old one off the truck and it's "close" but not nearly close enough to fit, even if I wanted to tweak on the bends.

Really gotta get this done before it gets worse. Any ideas? Thanks! Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
someotherguy Posted March 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2023 (edited) The more I look at it, it SEEMS like if I straighten out the bend at this arrow, it might be the right hose? Didn't want to guess at it though as then it wouldn't be returnable and the SOB cost $80+ after tax + shipping. Wondering if it might have gotten damaged in shipping, just went out to the garage and tried giving it a "test" flex to see if it would bend. Naw, this is some kind of plated steel (not aluminum), it's not soft at all, and had zero give. It was just packaged in a plastic sack but no apparent damage to the sack, and none to the box it shipped in. I really have zero confidence it was damaged. It was made this way, and it won't fit.

The tubing is really strong, pretty sure if I go to bend it that it's gonna kink. I had wondered for a second if it got bent in shipping but there's no way.. unless the shipping people went after it through the packaging with a tubing bender. 😉 Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
