Info - New Front Air Deflector with Increased Ground Clearance

A new front air deflector with improved ground clearance is now available if replacement of the production air deflector is required. This new air deflector is a non-hinged design and has approximately 12 mm (1/2 in) more ground clearance than those previously used. In addition, this new air deflector sets back approximately 38 mm (1½ in) further rearward and uses a material and shape that makes considerable less noise if contact with a curb or the ground is made.

This new design front air deflector is a direct bolt-on and should be used if service or replacement is required on the above listed vehicles.

Important: To maintain proper air conditioning performance, vehicle aerodynamics and prevent extreme underhood temperatures, the front air deflector must be properly installed on the vehicle and be fully functional. As a result, operating the vehicle without the front air deflector is not recommended.

Parts are currently available from GMSPO.
