Couldn't load pickup availability
Front axle actuator upgrade kit, electric motor style, for the Chevrolet/GMC K1500.
Part numbers
Dorman 600-490 (includes 600-101 electric actuator and 600-600 wiring harness).
Fits
1500 series, 1988-1996 trucks originally fitted with the thermal-style actuator.
Why it matters
The original thermal actuator uses a wax element that slows and eventually fails with age, this genuinely modern electric actuator engages faster and more reliably, the recommended upgrade rather than replacing thermal with thermal.
What you get
One electric actuator, one wiring harness with the spacer needed for the shorter electric unit.
Give us your VIN if you're not certain on fitment, we'll check it before anything ships.
