Transmission filter

[joechevy2]

I was hoping someone can help me. I need to get the delco

part # for a transmission filter and a transmission pan gasket

for a 2002 Tahoe LT 4x4 (5.3 liter).

 

If anyone has a any tips on removing the pan and then

putting it back (without leaks ), I would appreciate

any help.

 

Thank You

I bought the deep pan for my truck and the gasket came with the kit so you dont waste your money on a gasket. I did and now I have one sitting in my closet

Thank you for the responses.

 

How do I tell if I have a deep or a shallow pan?

flip a coin ???

 

Id say your best bet is to go to the dealer and have them run your vin when looking the part up. Some have measured (forget the meaurement). My theory is if you have the trans cooler (trailer pkg) you have the deep pan but this is only my theory

Ok....I do have the tow package, but I guess it is

best to be safe. I was going to order it from parts direct,

but I'll just go give the local dealer some buis...

 

Thanks....

Sorry guys but the VIN dosen't tell us dealers which pan you have,you have to look at the pan itself and just know the difference between the deep and shallow pans,you will also notice the difference as soon as you pull down the old filter,any good GM dealer should have both on stock so if you have to just buy both and return the one you don't use.

24208576 trans filter kit used with deep pan 76.6mm ( 3.01") deep

24200796 trans filter kit used with shallow pan 59.6 mm ( 2.35") deep

the deep pan has a step in it, so part of the pan is about 3" high, and part of it is only like 2" high, if my memory serves me correctly. I have a 2000 Yukon 2wd with the tow pkg and I have the deep pan.

 

if you need a shallow pan filter, i have an extra (ordered it cause I thought I need it) and I'm willing to get rid of it -- it's not doing me any good.

OK I think that I may have used the wrong filter.

 

I brought the filter for the shallow pan, but think that I may now have the deep pan. The pan is 3" at the deepest.

 

Will using the shallow filter do any damage until I change it?
