    Which Power Steering Fluid?

    I just had a brand new GM hydraulic brake booster installed and the power steering fluid is now pinkish in color. The fluid I was using before was Prestone and it had a clear color. My question is, did they put the right kind of fluid in?

    What lower control arm is this?

    Do the ball joints and tie rods look like they need to be replaced? I watched videos on how to check ball joints ..(the wheel is solid as has no movement. The other wheel has a tiny bit of play.) Why don't the control arm bushings look like other Tahoe's in videos I have seen.

    2004 Tahoe LT, 5.3 Flex What lower control arm is this? It has a stamp on it that says SMV. I can't find any information on it. The upper control arm has no numbers or stamps. Are they original GM parts?? Also, do I need to replace ball joints if there is no play in the wheel, but there are...
