Hey, im new to the forum. My names Thomas, currently rebuilding my 2001 yukon XL's front end. smacked a deer at about 45 and insurance company tried to total it i took their money and bought it back off them. now i wanna make sure i do it right so i decided to join the forum so i could get more info and a few diagrams possibly with some parts stores online ect. so any help would be appreciated. I need an exploded diagram of the front end and possibly a place to buy some nice parts for very reasonable prices. I need new radiators for ac, power steering and coolant. Also the computer mount is broken to a million pieces so all that front driver side. Any help would be amazing!

If the deer had been dead I would have XD it some how survived, hit it in the back roads of South Dakota, you know that would have been some nice dinner lol.

Is your rad support bent? Fender damage? Hood damage?

You can go to local GM dealer with your vin and ask for a hand. They can provide you with exploded view print out with all parts numbered and another page with part names corresponding to number. I have a few but non for front end.

I presume your alignment is still okay.

LMC Truck.com is good sight for pretty much anything you need!

How much money did they give you for it? Did you have a deductible?

Cheers,
Ryan

Depending on how you want to make out on the deal, Id recommend going aftermarket for some items, like core support, radiator,condenser, bumper etc. Sheetmetal I would go GM as youll have much better fitment.
