  • How Does the Putco Grille Insert Install on a 2013 GMC Yukon XL
  • The main grille insert, # P84159, does not require removing the bumper but you will need to remove the factory plastic hood that covers the area between the grille and radiator so you can get your hands behind the grille to complete the installation. This is the normal installation procedure and should be much easier than removing the front end of the vehicle. The lower grille, # P84160, uses self-tapping screws to install so you should not have to get behind it at all.

The Curt Discovery Timed Delay Brake Controller # C84VV gives you the option to either cut the connector off the brake controller or use...

  • Yes, you can technically install the Derale 9" Tornado Electric Fan # D16509 in front of the transmission cooler of your 2011 GMC Yukon XL but it may be that you are getting diminishing returns. This fan is unique in that it can be used as a pusher or puller application so I recommend instead that you install this fan behind the radiator which is going to maximize your cooling efficiency.

  • Installing the E-Track Wood Beam Socket For Standard Lumber
  • Once the E-Track Wood Beam Socket for Standard 2" Lumber - Qty 1 # 59149 has a beam screwed in at both ends, it cannot be removed without unscrewing the wood beam.

You will be able to use the same piece of lumber cut to width over and over again, but it will need to be removed to change location of the hangers in the track.
