1985-1998 [Subscribe to Daily Digest] |
From someone that knows there stuff.
Here's the transmission history (again):
Version 1:
GMT5301, GMT5401
'86-'87 2.0 turbo, no ABS
4.05:1 final drive with bushings behind spider gears
Engine-oil dipstick is notched and used to measure tranny oil level through
the fill hole.
Small inner driver.
Version 2:
GM75401, GM75301, GM75402
'88-'90 2.0 turbo ABS
4.05:1 final drive with bushings behind spider gears
Fill hole is moved to the front of the tranny case because the early rear
fill hole would be nearly impossible to get to with the ABS brake system
right above it. '88 has a cap bolt with dipstick attached to it, '89-'90
have a proper dipstick and tube.
Small inner driver.
Version 3:
GM75403
'91-'92 2.3 turbo, ABS (ABS/TC in '92)
4.05:1 final drive with bushings behind spider gears
Front dipstick for level checking and filling.
The earlier rear fill hole was not drilled anymore because it's
near-impossible to get to with the ABS brake system right above it.
Large inner driver.

The following trannies are from non-turbo cars, and have the super-short
