Glad I could help

Omg! I have the same year GMC Yukon and this happened to me today!! I luckily was home and my shifter was moving freely but car was showing it was in drive! I couldn't turn it back on. I let it roll out of the garage so I would have space if a tow truck needed to come but then I found your video! You were spot on! I got the part for $12.99 and it probably took me 15-20 minutes to put it on. I had a hard time getting the little white piece to pop in properly but I finally got it and pushed it onto the post and voila!!!! I can't believe this little plastic part plays such an important role in the shifting of this giant vehicle! I'm a 56 year-old mom and wife and am pretty happy about this easy and inexpensive fix especially since we are taking the car on vacation tomorrow! Thank you!!!!!

This was a life saver today when my Suburban went into park fine at Walmart and when I came out … the shifter was slipping up and down and wouldn’t go into gear. My oldest son watched your video and is fixing this now. It looks like it was the bushing kit we needed. Thanks!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Worked out perfectly! Spent hours using different dorman part number 14047 recommended by autozone. Needless to say I never got it to fit. Watched this video went back to same store bought dorman part number 14104 and finished in 5 minutes.

Great video! Same thing happened to my 2013 Yukon today. Had just picked it up from the garage yesterday for an unrelated issue. Watched your vid, looked underneath and saw the problem right away! Walked to the store and got the same kit. Thanks !!!

I have a 08 denali I really appreciate this video saved me money on a tow and shop just now

This is exactly what happened to me. I thankfully found this video right away, looked under the vehicle and sure enough that's all it was. Took me about five minutes to remove the old brittle cracked one and put the new one in. It was a bit of work to get the new one in, and I used a screwdriver gently as well to coax it in to place. Mine wasn't hanging down because it didn't have a chain entangled so I had to find the area first. It was off but still tucked up out of clear sight from just looking under the Yukon quickly. But sliding under the vehicle it was easy to see.

Awesome thank you. I'm in a different country (central America) in the mountains, and that feeling when your truck won't shift is a very unsettling feeling. Thankfully I'm only missing the little plastic bushing. Got some wire and wrapped it up maybe better than stock! I'm in a 2010 Z71 suburban and same exact area if anyone else is looking. Now to try and find the actual plastic bushing 😅

Nice video, this is the third time in 2 years, yes I cleaned up the linkage shaft and everything else. Maybe the chain they had on it was to try and hold the cable on..I'm going to try all-weather zip ties through bushing end this time! I'm carrying a floor jack and stand with me ,this is ridiculous.

Thanks for the video! Saved us on the side of the river after a week long river trip, you’re a life saver!

Excellent demo, Will! I've never seen that done before, it's fun to understand the options. I wondered if that D shaped plastic ring out the back was there to allow one to put some kind of safety clip or zip tie onto it to prevent if from coming off. In any case, as you know those things are really tight and normally very hard to remove.

Hi. Thanks for the video! I have an 2007 Yukon Denali with the 6 speed. Dorman is saying this kit 14104 is ONLY for the UPPER bushing and that they do not make the lower for some odd reason. Can you confirm if this will work on the lower bushing of a 2007? Thx Scott

Use a wire brush on the linkage arm stud. Lubricate with Fluid Film and snap it on.

My Yukon is stuck the shifter goes up and down but it doesn’t move front or backwards and it makes a loud screeching noise coming from the brakes ? Any idea of what happened

Saved my ass sir, truck broke with my daughter in the car and wife out of town. Thanks!

Just fixed mine!

To make it easier to put the bushing through the cable, put the bushing in microwaved/boiled water for 3-5 minutes. I don't suggest boiling it. May make it too soft and deform it.

A case of beer a few joints and that's the kind of repair they do in da hood, I may be wrong but I may be right, I'm assuming this is South Jersey, I'm in central Jersey and that's exactly what I'd expect to see where I live, there's some pretty sketchy looking vehicles in Perth Amboy.

They may have went for the forth joint on this one lol its defiantly way out there, so many easier options and they chose this! it had to be difficult to get that all up in there. Be safe out there

To fix this problem permanently. I just drilled the stud out of the gear selector lever. Welded a bolt through it and bam it’s done. Gm/Chevy made this a poor design having plastic fittings right by the exhaust.

It must be fully seated or it will pop off. Unless the one you got is different. The first pop on sent enough look close at the outside to assure its fully locked in place

This video is a great help as I attempt to fix my 2003 Tahoe. I think the D ring was Dorman's enhancement to ensure the bushing would be inserted into cable correctly aligned. You helped me identify correct part #14104. Sanding, filing, lubing the lever nipple is important since corrosion on the nipple is what wears out the bushing. New subscriber today!

The bushing is in and I double checked looks like this repair kit thankfully but my son says for a little it’s worth that it is slipping out of gear in motion. Hoping it’s the drive shaft and not the transmission but momma is rusty. Give me pre 2000 and I’m good in the hood with the carbs too. Hell my oldest now is a 02 exped but my Chevy was 30 and almost 700,000 miles before doom came and that was because parts were hard to come by.
