Don't worry I didn't take it as you being argumentative. II didn't mean to be argumentative - just thought adding to the confusion was a good idea!

Just a guess again I don't think so. Both my 95's have different brake boosting systems. One is vacuum and the other is hydroboost.Does the presence of Hydroboost and/or EVO steering influence cooler fitment?
Chevy Burbs in 95-99 are either LS( velour cloth seats) or LT ( leather seats). I think the GMC s had SL, SLT, and SLE, like Sierra, Sierra Grande, and Sierra Classic in the square bodies. I recall seeing 400 series trucks with Scottsdale, Cheyenne and Silverado cab post badges, the GMC s had the previously mentioned trim level on the cab post emblem.Yeah, I have no idea how it was determined if they got the PS cooler or not. I went and looked at my GM trucks and they all have them. They are as follows:
99 Silverado 1500 ECSB 2WD with 4.3 LS
00 K3500 CCLB SRW with 5.7 LS
06 Suburban 2500 2WD with LQ4 LT
Neither show an RPO that matches PS cooler. In fact, the suburban even has a engine block heater, so it does not seem that it would be a "hot state" option. As far as I thought, it was standard on trucks?
Could it be related to trim? Maybe just coincidence? I think the 2 earlier trucks are sort of a "nice trim" option, and I think LT in 06 was as well?
I can't recall the early GMT 400 trim options. Was it Cheyenne and Silverado in Chevy and respective SLT and SLE in the GMC Sierra? What about SUVs?
My '97 K2500 7.4L also had the "cooler" that is nothing more than bent tubing that pokes into--and then back out of--the left-side frame rail behind the front bumper.My 89 K2500 has the longer "cooler" type hose that snakes into the frame and back.

At the point where I bought the truck--about 150K miles and a year-and-a-half ago, the tube had worn through. The entire underside is now coated in power steering fluid and dirt. I disconnected the plumbing to that tube, looped it together, and at least for now I have no plans to replace it.
IF at some point I do put a steering cooler back in, it'll be a tube-and-fin or similar cooler, not just a bent tube crammed into a frame-rail.
Sorry, I don't understand.Just swipe a sticker from the boneyard if you're so inclined. They package so nicely.
Sorry, I don't understand.
I wonder if the frame loop is specific to the earlier TBI trucks?
