since this thing is awd I am not sure on the front part, not even sure how it would come off I haven't looked that close at it yet.
What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

You do pound them out but you need to heat them a ridiculous amount to get the plastic fiberous material out of the groove. After that’s done you pound them out.

That plastic snakes out the hole when it heats up is quite satisfying to watch. Lol
Nope, GM uses plastic to hold them in, you need to torch them until it oozes out the tiny holes and then drive the caps out. The new ones go in with clips though so in the future they’re easy. The front driveline comes out just like the rear.
are the u joints the same size in the front as the rear?
The ones on my 02 were, not sure on the NNBS.
RockAuto lists different part numbers for front and rear drive shafts on my 2013 Denali XL.

Picked up the parts for the remote trans filter.
I plan on mounting the filter on the passenger frame rail just in front of the motor. Cutting the rubber part of the supply line to the radiator cooler and running it to the filter, then using a piece of TOC hose out to a barb connector and connecting back into the line I cut.
I'm going to use the Wix 51269 hydraulic filter.
I already installed the larger trans cooler.

I was just wondering because I already bought some moog for the rear a while back figured it would be easy just order 2 more if the front were the same. I think when I ordered these rear ones I went with the more popular size on rockauto I guess there is 2 different sizes
@915_Tahoe what's the oem part number for the front u-joints and the rear u-joints? I need to make sure I got the right size

Interesting the rear is listed as a Dana Spicer but the front says universal. Wonder if it’s Dana Spicer too. That’s the brand I used for all 4 on my 02. It’s always been my go-to for u-joints.
I can not say for sure......as in I only test fit on a 2wd. Now if the current calipers are the same by part number for the 2wd and 4wd.....one could assume that it "should" work with 4wd.
I only speak to the absolute facts that I have via actual hands on parts/installed
thanks!
I just woke up. lol
are the ones you bought greasable?
No. I don’t believe in greasable u-joints. The originals lasted 150k without adding grease. And in reality, when I replaced them there was still plenty of grease and they didn’t even look worn.
the rear ones are $90 each the front ones are $45 each
for oem
Interesting and I think my question about the manufacturer of both was answered. Since the rears are listed as Dana Spicer @$90 each and the front are listed as universal @$45 each I’m pretty sure the fronts aren’t Dana Spicer. I bought mine ( Dana Spicer for my NBS) from RA for $22 each.the rear ones are $90 each the front ones are $45 each
the picture doesn't show the rear ones close enough to determine a manufacture stamp, but the dana is less than half the price, the front shows a stamp DD 14 ?
