Expert Answers about GMC Yukon XL


  • Replacement Key N126 for GM-Branded Roof Top Cargo Box that was on a 2001 GMC Yukon XL
  • The NXXX keys are unique to Thule-made cargo boxes. It does appear that Thule has made cargo boxes for GM so replacement key # THKEYN126 is the correct replacement. One tip I can offer is that sometimes the new keys won't fully seat all the way in the older locks. If this happens you can tap on the key with a mallet to get it to seat all the way so that it will turn.

  • Can 2004 GMC Yukon XL With Factory Roof Rack Carry Two Hullavators
  • I reached out to a representative of Thule who said the bars needed for your 2004 GMC Yukon XL would be the 69 inch Thule ProBar Evo Crossbars # TH713600 along with Thule Foot Pack 450R in order for you to have the space to carry a pair of Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carriers # TH898. They did say that Thule does not recommend using a pair of Hullavators due to weight capacity concerns and that the warranty would be voided by using a pair of Hullavators. Due to this you may want to forego...

  • What is Needed To Switch Weight Distribution to New Tow Vehicle
  • If you already have the Strait-Line Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control # RP66130, you won't need a new system.

  • Will Timbren Jounce Springs # TGMRG25C Fit 2004 GMC Yukon XL with Air Ride
  • The Timbren Jounce Springs # TGMRG25C are a fit for the 2004 GMC Yukon 1500 XL with Air Ride as long as it is the 4-wheel-drive version. These bolt on without drilling in place of the factory bump-stops. They work independently and offer progressive resistance as the load on them increases. I linked an install video for you. If you have the 2-wheel-drive version then instead you'll use part # TGMRYS4.

  • I checked with Aries and for the Aries Big Horn Bull Bar with Removable Skid Plate # AA45-4016 that you referenced they have it listed as "it may interfere with the sensors" but they also said that the sensors on the bumper of your 2017 GMC Yukon XL are so far to the outsides of the bumper that the guard shouldn't interfere realistically and they haven't had any complaints yet.

  • Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver C15324 Fitment On a 2004 Yukon XL Denali With Aftermarket Roll Pan
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C15324 has only been confirmed to fit on the factory bumper. With your 2004 Yukon XL Denali having the street scene roll pan it likely will not require any modification if they designed it to fit with the factory receiver hitch. I wasn't able to get that information from street scene.

  • 2002 GMC Yukon XL Denali 1500 Air Bag Kit Fitment and Recommendation
  • The closest thing to an air bag kit that fits your 2002 GMC Yukon XL Denali 1500 is the Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs # AL60769 which fit inside your suspension coils. These kind of kits are okay, but can be prone to getting pinched inside the suspension coils if you aren't careful and you forget to routinely check the air bags, so I actually recommend using the SumoSprings # SSR-204-40 instead. The SumoSprings replace your OEM jounce bumpers and have 3 key factors as to why I really...

  • Will the WeatherTech Cargo Liner Allow Me to Use My Third Row Seats in My 2012 GMC Yukon XL?
  • I have an answer for you. Unfortunately, the WeatherTech Cargo Liner # WT42328 is not desinged to fit your 2012 GMC Yukon XL. Although, there is a cargo liner that is designed for your vehicle: the WeatherTech Cargo Liner # WT40310. I confirmed with my contact with WeatherTech that the only way to use the Cargo Liner # WT40310 with the third row seating up is to cut the cargo liner to fit the foot space in front of the seats of the third row. If you choose to cut the liner, you will be...

  • Can Air Bags and Rubber Helper Springs Be Installed Together on a 2005 GMC Yukon XL
  • The stock bump stops on your 2005 GMC Yukon XL should be located outside of the coil springs so they would not interfere with the AirLift system you installed. You could add some different rubber springs such as # TGMRYS4 but since you already have the air bags installed you would not need to upgrade the bump stops. If they are in bad shape you could get some replacements either from a GM dealer or inquire at a local auto parts store. Or if you want bigger ones you could install the Timbren...

  • Can a Thule Roof Rack Support a James Baroud Tent on a 2008 GMC Yukon XL
  • Your 2008 GMC Yukon XL requires the 60 inch bars so you would use # TH711520 and then feet # TH710401. The roof rack is rated for 165 pounds though so unless the combined weight of the tent you use and occupants is less than 165 pounds you would be over the capacity of this roof rack. If it is just the tent then it would be at the capacity but would not exceed it. Yakima has a solution to the low weight capacities of roof racks and vehicles in the USA; take a look at the SkyRise # Y07421...

  • Will the Ball Mount Adapter # BA-1 Work with the Curt Weight Distribution Shank # C17125
  • Yes, the Ball Mount Adapter, # BA-1, will work with the Curt Weight Distribution Shank, # C17125. Keep in mind that you always want to follow the weight limitations of the component with the lowest rating so even though the weight distribution shank has a gross towing weight capacity of 15,000 pounds, you will be limited by the weight capacity of the adapter which is 10,000 lbs for towing and 2000 lbs for tongue weight.

  • Install Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 31108, on 03 GMC 2500 Yukon XL with skid plates
  • On the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 31108, there is minor fascia trim required when installing on 2003 GMC 2500 Yukon XL. As far as the fitment on your vehicle with the skid plates istalled, I checked with the supplier (Curt), they said they have not heard of any problems of them fitting with factory skid plates, but if the skid plates were a dealer installed item, which is an aftermarket item, they would not know because they do not test their fitments against aftermarket...

  • Recommended Brake Controller and Plug In Adapter for a 2019 GMC Yukon XL w/ the Factory Tow Package
  • The best brake controller for your Yukon XL is going to be the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller item # RED24FR. This is a proportional brake controller that activates your trailer's brakes when your Yukon decelerates. The reason the Tow-Pro Liberty is the best option is because of its unique installation method where the only visible portion is the control knob that's about the size of a nickel. The main unit is hidden away inside your dash to be completely out of the way and out...
