SUBJECT: INFORMATION - PROPER FILL TUBE AND BOTTOM PAN COMBINATION FOR SRTA/GOODWRENCH

MODELS: 1998 CHEVROLET AND GMC C/K, G MODELS WITH HYDRA-MATIC 4L60-E (RPO M30)

SOME VEHICLES WERE BUILT WITH A 1998 START OF PRODUCTION TRANSMISSION THAT HAD A "REGULAR" BOTTOM PAN.

ON OCTOBER 1, 1997 (JULIAN DATE 274), A NEW "DEEP" BOTTOM PAN (17MM DEEPER) WAS IMPLEMENTED WHICH REQUIRES A NEW FILL TUBE.

ANY VEHICLE WITH THE "REGULAR" BOTTOM PAN THAT REQUIRES A REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY (SRTA) MUST BE FITTED WITH A NEW FILL TUBE WHICH IS 14MM SHORTER (P/N 15732100-C/K MODELS/ 15150125-G MODELS).

ORDER A NEW FILL TUBE IF YOU HAVE AN EARLY 1998 TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

REUSE THE CURRENT FLUID LEVEL INDICATOR (DIPSTICK).
