Worked great. Make sure you know what braking system you have.

. I have found two part numbers that could potentially fit my truck. One for the power steering system (GM PN 19181874) and one for standard vacuum brakes (19181873). Revain said they both fit in my truck, which is incorrect. They are not interchangeable. Get your RPO code (sticker in the glove box) and see what type of brakes you have. VIN will not give this information. My RPO code is JC5 for vacuum actuated brakes. A list of RPO codes can be found online. I think only HD trucks have powerโ€ฆ

Pros
  • . Few competitors.
Cons
  • . Quality.

Doesn't quite fit / be careful when instilling

This product is great apart from the fact that it has to come with full instructions. Please watch Youtube how to remove the old sensor before replacing it with this product. This is a magnet that is inserted into a small hole covered in rust and dirt. I broke mine off in a hole and had to drill/hollow out the old one. The OEM sensor has a wire that comes up at a 45 degree angle to avoid the brake shield. This product has it at 90 which prevents the sensor from sitting flush in the hole. I hadโ€ฆ

Pros
  • It's OK!
Cons
  • Weight

Better than the original, great quality

I was having trouble getting the ABS light to illuminate so I suspected these sensor wires might be faulty. You can test them yourself (search the internet for the procedure and results) which I did but didn't care about my results so I just bought two of these sensor cables to replace the existing ones. Turns out the cables weren't bad, but instead there was a break in the ABS pump circuit board :( However, I don't really regret buying these cables, they are much better made than the originalโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Protection

Just as good if not better than OEM.

My 2000 Silverado had ABS issues for years that low speed didn't stop. This was a known issue on early GM 00-03. For the rust belt states, there's even a silent tip on the subject. In any case, after it has been delivered to the dealer and they will do a quick continuity test, clean the sensor, send it back and find it good. This fix seemed to take about 5-6 months and was due to the ABS issues. I ordered them because I thought I'd give them a shot at the price. If they don't work I just goโ€ฆ

Pros
  • GOLS Certificate
Cons
  • Clarity
