Tahoe PPV Deflector installed on 15 Suburban (shorter lower valance that comes on Police model)

[AZCreeker]

We just finished putting on GM Part # 23365760

It is the Lower Deflector that comes on Tahoe PPV. it is about 1/4 of the length of the stock piece.

It's a small mod but I believe it has changed the look on our suburban quite a lot, we like it.

I got it at, for 281 plus shipping

The main reason was to gain ground clearance, for these off-road times, like when parking at a mall to clear curbs

Also already helps on steep driveways and coming out of parking lots...



The removal of the old piece and installation of the new one was quite simple. Remove some bolts/ torque screws, pushing down some clip, partial removal of front wheels liners.



I can't comment on any decrease in MPG on highway, as we use this truck in town.

That is a nice look. Well done.

 

[Fosscore]

Yes looks much cleaner.

Looks great! I've been debating either buying one or cutting down the giant OEM one that is one there now.

Interesting. Maybe something to consider with lowered Tahoes.

 

[AZCreeker]

I should add that the idea of doing this came to me after reading a while back a post on this forum where someone suggested to take a Tahoe PPV vin and call a dealership to get them to find me the part number.
If anyone would like to order, be aware that nobody stock these and they are special order from the chevy.
It took about 2.5 weeks for me to get it.

I agree nice look.

Will it fit a Yukon?

 

[ctide21]

Same question , will it fit a Denali, the standard air dam part numbers are different for GMC vs. Chevy so not sure if the part is the same just different numbers or if it truly is a different fit

So the question is:

Will the Tahoe PPV Deflector Part # 23365760 fit a Yukon/Yukon XL?

For that we'll need to compare the stock Tahoe/Suburban deflector overall length/curvature/and mounting points to the one on the Yukon.
Unfortunately the diagram pictures below are vague, especially the one I found for the Tahoe.

I do see a definitive way to figure this out.
If anyone is willing to pay shipping, I will donate to you my stock deflector, so someone can test it out.
If my stock deflector works on your Yukon then the Tahoe PPV will as well.

Another less costly option, would be for you to trim the stock piece like some other people here have done in the past on various gen of trucks.



Stock Tahoe/Suburban Deflector is GM Part# 22936501


Stock Yukon / Yukon XL Deflector is GM Part# 22936430

FYI, found it 20$ cheaper here:

Sweet! I had mine installed by a nearby body shop took them 1 hour, so I am sure it should be easy if you have a bit of time and basic tools!
take pictures once installed. I will also post better pictures at some point as well!

Nice job

Any luck putting it on?

Garage has been full lately, shooting to install tomorrow. Will post some pics then

Nice mod. Considering the height of the rest of the truck, its annoying to scrape parking curbs all the time. Does anyone know how much it affects gas mileage? Maybe 1 MPG?

Did it fit on the Denali.
