Engine and Transmission Applications - 4-Wheel Drive
Transmission ID and VIN Derivative Location
A Transmission ID Tag and a VIN Derivative stamp is located on the transmission case.
Scheme 10
The 4L60-E transmission ID and VIN derivative location (1).
Scheme 11
Transmission ID and VIN derivative locations (1, 2). The right hand stamping is shown, left hand is opposite. Pin or hand stamp location (3) for the transmission ID or VIN derivative.
Scheme 12
Vehicle identification number location PIN stamp only (1). Vehicle identification number location optional PIN or Hand Stamp (2). Vehicle identification number location optional Pin stamp only (3).
Scheme 13
The transmission vehicle identification number location PIN or hand stamp (1, 3). Vehicle identification number location PIN or hand stamp (2).
Scheme 14
Vehicle identification number location for PIN stamp (3). Optional hand stamp locations (1, 2, 4)
Scheme 15
Engine identification tag location (1).
Scheme 16
An identification tag is attached to the rear half of the transfer case. The tag provides the following information
- Model number (1) First Digit-1 =Single Speed, 2=Two Speed Second Digit-3 =T-Truck, L-Van, 4 or 6 = GMT 800 Third Digit-1 = Manual, 3 = Electric Shift, 6 = Automatic, 9 = All Wheel Drive
- Assembly number (2)
- Serial number (Date & Shift Code) (3)
- Low range reduction ratio (4)
The information on this tag is necessary for servicing the transfer case. If the tag is removed or becomes dislodged during service operations, keep the identification tag with the unit.
Scheme 17
Front axle identification information is stamped on the top of the differential carrier assembly. The information includes the following
- Broadcast code (1)
- Supplier code (2)
- Date built (3)
- Shift built (4) (Optional for 8.25" and 9.25" axles)
- Hour built (5)
In order to verify reports made on the differential case assembly, include full code letters and build date numbers.
Scheme 18
Rear axle identification information is stamped on the right side axle tube near the differential housing. The information includes the following
- Broadcast code (1)
- Build Source (2)
- Build date (3) (Julian date)
- Shift built (4)
In order to verify reports made on the rear axle assembly, include full code letters and build date numbers.
Scheme 19
Federal law requires that General Motors label certain body parts on this vehicle with the vehicle identification number (VIN). The purpose of the law is to reduce the number of motor vehicle thefts by helping in the tracing and the recovery of parts from stolen vehicles.
The labels are permanently affixed to an interior surface of the part. The label on a replacement part contains the letter R, the manufacturer's logo, and the DOT symbol.
