Escalade roof rack question

[willinnashville]

I finally scored a roof rack, end caps, and vent caps from an Escalade for my 05 Denali. The front and rear bolts look the same, but the middle looks different. I didn't remove these, so I'm not sure how they came off. I don't have any extra pieces, so I'm kinda baffled.

My question is this - do the center mounts of an Escalade roof rack mount differently from the center of a stock Yukon Denali?

Yes, the center mount has a little piece that sticks up like a guide bolt. You must have this part to secure it properly. It is a little black piece of plastic if I remember correctly.

Thanks for the reply! I don't suppose you know if that part can be ordered from somewhere?

The part is discontinued but I am sure there is someone that has it. Ebay, a dealer, someone on here, junkyard.

Awesome! Thanks man! Now I at least have something to look for

I just ordered 4ea last week from gmparts2u.com

 

[willinnashville]

Would you recommend them?

 

[theo robertson]

Yes they help secure the center of the rack

I think he was asking about gmparts2u.com. Would you recommend them as a place to do business with.

Yes I would recommend them , I’ve ordered several original Gm parts from them and the delivery of the part was fast.

 

[willinnashville]

I actually meant that as if he recommended the website where he ordered his, but I found some today on a junkyard run

Did you do the Escalade third brake light too? I found a black one at the junkyard and got all excited until I saw the housing was cracked

 

[theo robertson]

No but I’m on the look out for one
