Rocket Man's 02 Denali Build Thread AKA "THE BEAST"

Are the bezels what holds the power door lock and window buttons to the doors?

Yes the manual lock buttons or levers, the ones that slide back and forth . Not power window or lock buttons. Here's what mine always look like. I'm always snapping them back in and a few lock cycles later and they pop out.

Got'cha. I thought it was the bezel that holds the power buttons in. Thx

Went camping and ran into some migrating Monarch butterflies. I've never ran into something like this, it was crazy. Bug splatters everywhere and when they flew into the windshield it actually made me jump a few times. Then I got home and UPS showed up.

You butterfly murderer!!

Adds some color tho, nice custom touch

So those lock bezels changed design between 02 and 03?

The TSB for the lock bezels was for 2001-2003 models so I'd say they changed in 04.

Guess I missed it, but what's TSB? Recall ?

A page back I mentioned the info on where you can look up all the Technical Service bulletins for your rig. There are over a thousand for mine, but that counts all the updates to them and a lot are little nit-picky stuff but some are relevant for sure. Check it out. http://www.revbase.com/bbbmotor

I didn't even notice! And it's CAM SWAP DAY !! Almost 5 hours into it. Here's a sneak peek. The cam is in and I was contemplating whether or not to install the new timing set and oil pump and decided I would, but to do it the "easy" way by just dropping the pan a half inch so I can get to the pickup tube bolt at the oil pump. So I pulled all the bolts on the pan and removed the crossmember but the pan wouldn't drop. Then I counted the bolt holes in my new pan gasket and saw I missed removing one. And I can see it but I can't get it out without dropping the front differential. Now I'm at another decision- drop the diff and then go ahead and drop the pan or leave the oil pump and timing set as is. I have great oil pressure and the timing chain looks great but I have these parts...damn. Stupid AWD.
