I had joined another site and was directed here since its more knowlegeable so here it goes for the second time, haha!
Bought a 04 5.3 rainier for my winter car. It smacked a deer and took out the bumper, AC condensor, rad, hood, grill, headlights, and random plastic stuff. Luckily the body shop that I got it from who gave up on it already got a bumper cover. Headlights are easy to get, rad and condesnor is easy, hood is available 200 miles from me.
In my quest to find parts diagrams I was super frustrated I couldnt find anything. Spent 4-5 hours between car-part, rockauto, amazon, gmpartsdirect and one of those GM online parts manuals trying to find what parts I was missing. When I fixed my firebird there was everything for 4th gens but nothing good for these 360s. Then I joined here and found the parts manual in the how to section and it helped.
What I thought is every 360 minus the rainier used the same plastic headlight to core support panel. What the parts manual on here I found shows that a rainier and envoy have what appears to be the same panel. The part number is different, 15195745 for envoy and 15133124 for rainier. But I can get an envoy one new off rockauto for $43 or $25 off Amazon, a used rainier one is $175 and 300 miles away, new rainier is 260.
Anybody verify that the envoy and rainier share the headlight mount panel? If it doesnt fit perfect is no problem, I can come up with little brackets or mounts but I want it to be close it possible. Only difference I kinda see is that the inside lock slider on the envoy one looks to be 10 degrees from vertical where I think a rainier is perfectly horizontal.
Help me fix my junk, I dont want to drive my cutlass or firebird this winter, haha.
