Let me clarify. The dealer never had the guides as a replacement part. GM didn't assign a p/n for the guides and required you to buy a complete hatch pull-down unit for $400+. I manufacture new drop-in replacement guides from solid nylon that are much stronger than the OEM injection molded version. I sell 4 guides in a kit for the 86-91 hatch pull-down units along with a new push nut (they sometimes get bent on removal). Also included is a tool to help install the new push nut and detailed instructions. I also sell new GM Gear Nuts for the 86-92 units and new reinforced motor housings for the 86-91 units. E-mail me at topdownsolutions@yahoo.com to purchase any of these repair parts. Lon

No! topdownsolutions@yahoo.com is the only one. And they are a quality item. He has a bunch of cool pull down stuff to correct the crappy GM design.

Thanx,ANDYZ28
