Okay so, first post as well as first time using the forum so I don't ask something properly please forgive me.

 

I'm trying to rebuild the trans on my 02 sierra 1500 2wd and for some reason I didn't purchase the correct model year rebuild kit. Dumb I know lol, but I'm wondering if I can make it work anyway or whether to suck it up and just return it. I'm trying to get this done quickly, but if it's going to be an issue I'll just return it and get the right one. I'm not extremely familiar with the differences in model years beyond the removable bell housing and length differences. The kit I bought on accident was for a 93-96. I realize the odds that I can make this work are slim especially given the changes around 95 and 96, but I thought I'd ask anyway. Sorry if this has been asked before.

According to my limited knowledge, I would say that the kit you bought will work about as well as an engine rebuild kit would for your truck if you ordered one of a 93-96 year model. Just need a really big hammer and some grinding and it WILL go together. :thumbs:

 

If you want it to function as its supposed to, then send it back and get the right kit.
