{"product_id":"relocated-oil-pump-pickup-tube-kit","title":"Relocated Oil Pump Pickup Tube Kit","description":"The PCM of NC Relocated Oil Pump Pickup Tube Kit provides an essential fix for the known oil starvation issue found in 2005-2009 Trailblazer SS and 5.3L vehicles. Because the factory pickup tube is positioned at the front of the sump, the engine is prone to oil starvation under heavy acceleration, which can significantly reduce engine longevity. This kit resolves the problem by relocating the pickup tube further back in the pan to ensure consistent oil delivery.\n\nEach kit includes a custom-welded pickup tube, new splash trays, and the necessary hardware with drill and tap bits for installation. The factory splash tray, which is riveted to the oil pan, must be drilled out and replaced with the provided two-piece tray system. Users may choose to weld these new trays in place for added security, which is the manufacturer's preferred method.\n\nPlease note that some final fitment work is required on the plates or the oil pan to ensure a proper installation. This kit is compatible with both 2WD and AWD models that share the same oil pan design, including the Trailblazer SS and SSR.","brand":"PM of NC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52689332699448,"sku":"P-150013","price":275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/687461990.jpg?v=1784905284","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/relocated-oil-pump-pickup-tube-kit","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
