Detailed Description

Gates TL229 is a turbocharger oil feed line engineered for oil conveyance in the turbo system. The steel tube construction and OE Exact grade help match the original routing and connection style, while the banjo inlet and bolt-on outlet support the factory-style attachment points used on the listed Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD applications. This part cross-references GM 12641353 and 12721608 for the same application.

As part of the Gates Turbocharger Oil Line family, TL229 is built around oil supply and drain line service where heat resistance and leak control matter. The TL229 part number is useful when replacing a worn or leaking turbo oil line on compatible Silverado HD and Sierra HD trucks.

What It Helps Address

• Oil seepage at the turbocharger line.
• Restricted oil delivery through a damaged line.
• Heat-related deterioration of the original oil supply tube.
• Fitment issues from a bent or corroded turbo oil line.
• Connection problems at the banjo or bolt-on ends.

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle application and connection style before installation. Match the banjo and bolt-on fittings to the original routing, and inspect adjoining sealing surfaces for wear or damage. Confirm the TL229 part number against the existing line before ordering.
