Question Who makes the GM Shock Mounts?

Anyone know who makes the GM Shock Mounts for GM? This is usually a third party, so wondering if it is actually Moog or something?

According to a local GM parts dept, the GM versions are now discontinued...

I know that AC Delco makes shock mounts, not sure if that is the OE manufacturer or not. I know that AC Delco makes a lot of the factory stuff for our cars.

Odd thing is GM seems to have different part #s from ACDelco -- thought GM owned them... The GM part #s seem to be discontinued, but not the ACDelco #s...

Left Side: GM 22146933, ACDelco 501-148
Right Side: GM 22146934, ACDelco 501-149

Did the NAPA part fit with no issues?

Thanks.

I had no problems. It fit like the stock unit, It also came with the hardware bolts and nuts.This was the drivers side to be clear and the only thing i can think of was there is a rubber bushing or a second piece that sits inside this unit that does not come with the new napa part. I swaped that pieace over with no problem. Other than that my new QA1's are in with no porblems.
If they have the part in stock check it first to make sure it is what you need i dont want to be the bad guy giveing you bad part info.
Also they only had 1 unit in at there main store in town.

We're talking about the same part.

Some people posted that the NAPA part didn't fit properly but if you didn't have any issues, it looks like it will work. The NAPA part is supposedly the same as the Monroe/Gabriel part, even down to the same part number. The rubber insert is called the isolator.

I bought the Moog mounts for mine. The only think that I noticed about them was the studs seemed not to be as long as the stock ones. One of the mounts had a GM number on it. The difference in the Delco number and the GM number is nothing, they are the same exact part. GM parts counter use a long number(GM) to sell parts, and your local parts store will use the short number(AC Delco).

going to be different between models and years. I did a 2015 silverado lift kit with just strut/spring spacers and Im getting ready to do a 2019 silverado leveling kit and it has the torsion bar set up on it.
