Yeah they are kind of annoying with their qty and vehicle type. I literally made a slide show with photos and sent it to their sales guy showing it fits fine for a Tahoe and making bigger packs would sell. Probably has to do with liability as well as customer service costs.
I went kind of...
I did end up getting the last 4 in a separate custom order. I had to go back and forth with customer service a couple times. They had to ask permission, and then had to put the set together. Took a couple of weeks and me chatting to follow up. I think if you chatted with customer service up...
Update on Ride Quality: S&B Body Mounts
After driving for a few weeks with the new body mounts installed I can say there is for sure a better ride quality. I now realize how much work the body mounts do.
Areas of my commute and places I routinely drive, I can tell a difference in how it feels...
I changed my brake lines by lifting up the frame, so I had to remove the body mounts. They crumbled apart and I broke that bolt when I unscrewed them. When I started looking for replacement bolts and mount parts, I realized it wasn’t very easy since there wasn’t a lot of precise information and...
Extracting Body Mount Bolt.
I broke off a body mount bolt, but I was lucky that it broke off at the head instead of by the frame. So I had about 4 inches of bolt to work with. Since it is a M14 most of the stud removers were too small.
I bought a PowerBuilt Stud Remover 1/4”-3/4” from Amazon...
Yes I installed the 8 body mounts and everything seemed to fit exactly as it should. I replaced all of the mounts in the from the radiator back with the SB kit. Since the kit has 8 but truck has 12; the 4 rear (by spare tire and rear bumper) are still old the old mounts.
I didn’t have any...
Here are a picture of the parts for the separate kits. I put them side by side and highlighted the differences since it could be hard to spot at a glance. You can see the different part numbers and I added the GM part number to the picture for reference.

S&B Body Mount Kit 81-2003 parts and bolt sizes.
So I went ahead and bought the S&B Body Mount Kit 81-2003 and it came in today. I took some pictures of the parts and bolt sizes. Everything looks really nice. However I’m not sure if these large mounts will fit for the radiator? I need to get...
Does it have Onstar? Mine makes a nasty dinging noise whenever I start-up because the onstar was disconnected, so be prepared if that happens to you. Honestly I’ve heard it for 10 years now so I think it is normal, but other people are always asking wth is that whenever I start my car.
Also...
I don’t want this to come across as an ad for this company, but I’m posting their specific info mainly bc they are frustrating me and don’t express the difference in their products. This seems like the best body mount kit available for a Tahoe, but they said it doesn’t fit without any...
Different Body Bolt Sizes by Vehicle Year
Maybe 2006 was a weird year for Tahoe body mount bolts.
My Tahoe is a 2006 old body but has the same M14 bolts as the 2007-2020. However all the part websites direct me to the older M12 size bolts. 2006 Suburbans have M14 on part websites, but it...
Thanks for the offer, but I just ordered the body mount kit from S&B and it comes with new bolts. It seems like the bolt sizes changed in year 2006 bc the body mount kits have different sizes. I really do appreciate the offer though, didn’t expect anything like that just from posting some info...
I hope to get to that point. Want to get a new frame, blast and seal it and swap the rusted frame. But if I can’t even find the right body mount bolts; don’t know if I can manage a frame swap ha!
TL:DR - looking for body mount hardware part numbers and kits to replace 2006 z71 Tahoe. Current hardware doesn’t match aftermarket offerings don’t want to order mismatched parts.
Hello first post here, putting out some info and looking for any feedback about my situation. I bought my 2006...
