I drove a Yukon that had ajustable headrests that not only adjust up and down, but also fore and aft (tilting effect). Is this only offered on the Denali? I wish they came on my Tahoe LT and was also wondering where I could get a set.

thanks.

My friend's 03 Yukon SLT has them, so I would think they are available on Tahoes after 03.

You would have to replace the entire seat, along with upgrading the wiring and switches to the memory seats.

Yeah, Shaners you are right. I was thinking about the power ones. The ones like yours are a direct replacement.

Maybe he is talking about the power ones... I dunno??? :jester:

I'm talking about the manual racheting ones. '04 Tahoe LT's (leather) don't come with them. Maybe I could pick up a pair and swap out the ones I have?

Got 'em on the '01 Yuk XL. Vinyl covered even with 1SD pack.

far as i know, only the 03-04 escalade (all caddie trucks and suv), denali, and h2 came with the manual ratcheting headrest. :thumbs: it wasn't even an option on my 03 yukon. if you want one, look on ebay. i bought one from ebay that came out of h2 and fits and works perfectly. not bad for h2 leather headrest for around $50.

You mean these? I bought them on ebay these ones are Hummer H2 tilting headrests. I had mine done up with my upholstery, I have 1 extra set left. If you are interested in them I can let them go for 100$ for the pair, and I will include shipping.

 

The ones I have are greyish leather.

We just got a truck in that has the ratcheting headrests.

It is a 2002 GMC SLT, and I think this is the key here, 8-way power seats with the memory functions.

That has been a mystery to me also. I owned a 99 Silverado LT equiped with the tilting headrest from the factory(listed in the options list). I now own a 2003 GMC SLT loaded with same options. My headrests do not tilt. I asked the dealer about this option and they all had the same answers.

Most 99 Sierra-Silverado SLT-LT packages included them(including Tahoes and Yukons). Since then, newer model years are showing up with them sporadically and there is not an option code to order them.

I am as confused as you are. I miss the tilting option that my older truck had. It may be a hidden option. In the good old days of 99 the locking spare tire was standard and now its an option. I also learned that one the hard way.

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
