Some have had good results (I'm running Dorman) but a bunch of other people have had 2 sets of Dorman pop right back out and had to go to the GM branded ones.

They are definitely different if you compare them.

Wow, guess I've been "lucky". I've been through 3 sets of them, I'm sure I always got Dorman. No pop outs, just breakage lol.

These look nice but I wonder how long the o rings will last.

Damn finally! :rotfl:

i let my Gm ones go with my old motor :nono: they wouldnt come out without damaging them lol i dont even think they had a months use :rolleyes:
for my L26 i got a dorman set haha, but when/if they these break im definitely going with the alum. ones!! :)

Frank, do the swap NOWWW :)

Oh how I wished I knew about these! My husband and I had to replace the plastic ones on my S-Charged back in December...

I had bad luck with Dorman when I did the LIM on my Intrigue. I could tell immediately that they didn't fit right and I immediately replaced them with GM elbows.

Where do these things go? I have yet to change mine, i prob need to :rotfl:

My GM service manual is showing them on the bracket that holds the tensioner. Is that correct?
