I got mine from Summit Racing a few years ago. #10285631. It was $158.99 and free shipping. I don't know if they messed up or what but it was FREE Freight Shipping! Hopefully it still is.

Thanks. Looks like shipping is $160 for freight.

If still available, just get one from the dealer. Usually free shipping there.

I ordered mine a couple weeks ago. Every dealer I contacted wanted $248. One said he would knock off 5-10%. I found a dealer advertising a 15% off anything over $200. With that savings with tax just under $200. The box it comes in is huge so either have a pickup or take it out of the box and let the dealer deal with the cardboard. These are the retainers I used.

The "christmas tree" shaft is slightly smaller than OEM but they seem to hold well.

Only website I found with the cheapest shipping is this one. For $216, still a great price.

Everyone else wants a min $300 for shipping.

:this goes by truck freight due to size. UPS and Fed Ex will not take it.

I would avoid any shipping unless they offer a deal. Summit at times will have free truck freight offers. They normally have a flat rate shipping that is better than most.

Most GM part web sites are often crazy shipping charges. Check before you order.

This is a dimensional shipping item the truck companies will charge a rate based on size vs weight.
And you can’t bend these.
