Is there anywhere online or a site that you can find a full parts breakdown manual like the ones the dealers refer to when you order parts? I am searching in particular for one on a 92 GMC Sierra C1500. I have all the service manuals but would like to find a complete parts breakdown showing part numbers and such on the truck.

 

Thanks

I was looking for the complete parts breakdown online download copy preferably  just like what you see if you go to the dealer.  I find myself always looking for a different part all the time and would just like to have the complete manual to reference. I tend to keep my vehicles a long time and do most of my own work and research.

Trying to figure out how to read some of the different codes that are shown in the GM parts breakdown.

C1,2,309(03-43-53)           C310,  C314,  C318,           C1,2(06)        CK1,2(06-16)       C109(06)    CK107(06)    CK310    CK1,2,3(03-43-53)  CK107,207(03-53)

 

Those are just a few of the examples that I am referring to. I know the C means two wheel drive and the K means 4 wheel drive and the 03-43-53 are the different body codes regular cab, crew cab and double cab respectively. When they list it such as C1,2,3 is that referring to 1500, 2500, and 3500? I am trying to find out what some of the others mean like the C310, CK107,207 and the other numbers that appear in parentheses.  The parts manual these numbers are shown in is linked below. I know it's probably easy to read when you know what the different numbers are referring to but have searched and came up empty as to what they all mean and or how to read them. I have listing of the RPO codes but nothing dealing with these. If there is a listing somewhere that describes how to interrupt them that would be great.

Here are the model breakdowns for 1998, maybe it will help.

The numbers in parentheses are defined at the end of the table. For example, (53) is a two door extended cab. So “K209 (53)” is a four wheel drive, 3/4-ton two door extended cab.

Thanks for the information. I guess my only question from that information and the example you gave is how are you figuring out what the 209, 109, 309, 310, 314, 318, 105, 107 and so on mean? I guess if it starts with a 1 its a 1500 and a 2 its a 2500 and so on? Do those maybe refer to frames or maybe box sizes 6' or 8' or something else all together?

Best I can figure, for the half-tons at least, is this...

 

C/K105 (16) two door Tahoe

 

107 (03) two door cab, short bed

107 (06) four door Tahoe

107 (53) extended cab short bed

 

109 (03) two door cab, long bed

109 (06) choices are a Suburban or four door utility. Since there is a 3/4 ton version (209) then the suffix 09 must be a Suburban or a long bed truck. Suffix 07 would then be the short bed version, the Tahoe.

109 (53) extended cab long bed

Hi there! Thank you for the thread, very helpful. Can you recommend me some good store to buy parts? I have been using Rockauto, Autozone, etc. and Concord auto parts store. But maybe there are some other cool ones. Thank you in advance!

    • It is working as designed.  NHT and non NHT trucks have the same exact transmission cooling setup.  NHT just gets a larger radiator.     The transmission cooler loop on these is as follows.     -Transmission out goes into an oil to water heat exchanger (item #1 in the first illustration below).  This exchanger has engine coolant opposite the transmission fluid and uses engine coolant to warm and then regulate the transmission fluid temperature when its in the operating window.   - From the cooler it goes to a thermal bypass valve (item #11 in the 2nd illustration below).  If the ATF has not reached the temp to open the bypass (194F), it loops back.   - When it reaches 194F, the thermostat opens and ATF then flows out to the oil to air auxiliary cooler (item #17 in the 2nd illustration) at the front of the truck.  From there it goes back to the transmission.     Your only fix would be to swap for the PPE thermal bypass delete block which will open the loop to the aux cooler all the time.  It will STILL run warm, probably 170-200F, but that's as low as you'll get it as its still flowing through the oil to water exchanger.      
    • Most say the oil temperature needs to above the boiling point of water to rid it of moisture and long enough to dry it. Many think that is about a hour at 212 F or more. Those people have never line dried cloths in a Midwest winter. Leave a pan of water sitting on the counter and eventually it all evaporates. So heat drives the time it takes. Water in oil under 175 F, the Nitration initiation temperature, is a minimum then for temperature and samples I've done that use Karl Fisher method say about a hour (in a healthy well tuned motor) over 175 F will dry it to under 800 ppm. Low enough to not be much of a factor. Motors with weak rings will take longer and the colder the air temperature the longer it takes.   On a cold motor there is also the condensation temperature. Blowby gases that contain moisture are subject to that cold cylinder wall, like sweat on a glass of ice tea. But also subject to the Law of Partial Pressures. Wear studies by GM and the DOD  indicate wear is a real issue below 85 F and a concern to 140 F but doesn't become a minimal factor until about 160 F. You know this intuitively when you see water vapor exit the exhaust pipe until the system gets above the dew point. It isn't magic, it's physics and it fascinates me. I know you didn't ask but....I over share sometimes. 😉    You keep the Camaro's high and tight.  
    • Move further away.   Benefit of living out - none of our cars get short cycled, plenty of warm up time.   Curious how much time/temperature it takes to drive moisture/condensation out of the engine?
    • Switch a a 100% synthetic trans fluid, Amsoil works for me.
    • First of all sorry, I know there are a ton of transmission temperature threads...   My truck is a 2025 LZ0 High (10l89 10-speed) High Country with NHT max trailering package. The NHT package is supposed to have "enhanced cooling."   Normally the trans temp sits around 200. It seems like with any real stress it quickly jumps into the 220s (for example climbing a grade unloaded at lower speeds). I haven't towed much with this truck, but I'm concerned if it gets this hot unloaded.    I've tried a few different things to keep the temps down (tow/haul mode, sport mode, low range when that makes sense) and nothing seems to affect it.    I'm curious if others are the same behavior or if anyone has found techniques to keep the temps down. It seems like it just can't handle reduced airflow at lower speeds, even with relatively light loading.    Thanks!
