Rubber Key Grommet on Lock Cylinder for Leverage

[TahoePotato]

My recently purchased 1998 Chevy Tahoe with 45,000 miles is a delight. I can't wait to visit again in the Baja.

The ignition lock cylinder has a rubber grommet on it which mates to the skinny key to provide more leverage in twisting the key to start the car.

Where can I buy? I am unable to find just this part online.

I am also looking for just the extension shaft of the spare tire kit - used to drop the drop release.

just this rubber grip/grommet component.

I would hit up your local salvage yards to see if you can find one on the cheap, otherwise there are whole cylinders on eBay for $20 or less that you could cannibalize. Same with the extension shaft. Might find one in a junked truck or you can get a set for $40-$50 on Amazon

The spare tire tools are hard to find in junkyards, seems like job 1 is to strip them out. I went through a bunch of GM vehicles and never found one. eBay has a bunch for sale, but you may have to buy the whole kit.

Thanks folks. OT but do you know if anyone is doing marine intake manifolds pre-built, cut/drilled?
