Go to another Chevy dealer in your area.

I just changed my intermediate steering shaft on my 2003 2WD, 2500HD last week... It took about 1/2 hour and now it feels like a new truck again. bp

the lube kit is only a temporary fix. the problem is with the u joints in intermediate steering shaft. gm has actually fixed the problem with the shaft but never recalled it. you can purchase the shaft from a dealer for around 75 bucks, and can be easily replaced. i replaced mine on my 04 sierra in about 30 minutes. i did this about 15,000 miles ago and it is still perfect.

You need to secure the steering wheel from moving via a pin hole on the bottom side of the steering wheel. Remove and replace the shaft, remove the pin from the steering column and you're done. As fast as 30 minutes

I have a 2004 GMC Dually and I had the dealer replace the shaft once, and now it is bad again. Clunking and vibrating, do you know the part number of the replacement shaft, I think I am just going to do myself this time.

there are different parts#'s according to your vin#. but i do know that lmctruck.com offers an aftermarket more heavyduty shaft. it's more expensive but, if you really use the truck it may be worth it in the long run. i have used lmc on several of my trucks and they are a very dependable company. if you run into any problems replacing the shaft feel free to contact me.

Book time is 30 minutes to R/R the shaft. That includes the time it takes to secure the steering wheel and open the hood.
