Recommendations for in-tank pump replacement

[Rocket Man]

The tank strap bolts and nut things, they always rust up and you might strip them when trying to remove them.

What is the hose inside the tank? I didnt replace that when I did mine but seemed to be in good shape?

Be ready for an oh crap moment when you pull the tank. I had a similar problem with my 09 Tahoe here is salty Mass. Unfortunately in my case, the metal fuel pump locking ring that is molded into the plastic tank rusted way beyond repair. In addition to the pump, I had to replace the whole tank with one from a junk yard.

Update: installed the recommended pump and now my gas gauge reads about half of what it should with the supplied float. Is there any way i can put a resistor in line to get a proper reading?

Are you sure you got the float arm snapped in correctly?

I have an 2007 suburban 8th vin J non flex fuel.
i’ve taken the pump out and I am looking for a replacement for the pump Only and not the entire module/housing. After extensive Internet searches I have been unable to find the pump only.
Does anyone have a number or model for this unit?

AFAIK only the entire assembly is available now. I don’t see the reason to not just replace it all, it’s not expensive and it’s the labor that costs so I don’t think it was popular enough to just do the pump to keep offering it.

Have you looked at Rock Auto? They sometimes have the pumps alone.

Ha! I stand corrected. They have a no-name brand pump only ( US Motor Works) for $78 or the entire no-name brand module for $68. I wouldn’t trust either.

It is expensive for the entire module. $300-$500.
i’ve got plenty of time to replace the pump And I’m doing The labor. So that’s not an issue. I saw the no-name brand unit on rock auto.
I’m actually looking for a GM/Bosch/…
