Need help Identifing a T-56
Need help Identifing a T-56
I'm hoping someone can help me to ID a T-56 I have bought. It is a Borg-Warner unit T-56. The numbers off the green metal tag are as follows:
Top line 12550647 G3062
Bottom Line 1386-009 H 64094
Also it says on the outside of the trans use Dextron III ATF

Shifter is 93-02 F-body from $20 eBay stock to $200+ aftermarket.
The backup solenoid parts, I'd shop for at The Gear Box.
The master /slave hydraulics for a 93-97 F-body can be purchased from thousands of different online and retail auto parts places. The spacer which holds the slave away from the bellhousing is avail. on eBay if you can't find it dealer / gearbox.
Also, if you haven't posted on a few f-body forums' classified sections, you should.

I've never seen Tick selling anything as the cheapest source. thegearbox.org is the best source for low cost tremec parts.

Re: Need help Identifing a T-56
Agreed, for some reason people are always looking to get rid of these things. If used is good enough for you, you should be able to get one for nothing.

Re: Need help Identifing a T-56
While I agree with they are not generally cheap. I looked all over the place and I challenge you to find a new GM solenoid for less than $100. I bought a few parts from AutoGear but they did not have the solenoid and claimed it was not a Tremec part, rather a GM part. So I doubt you will find it at the usual Tremec parts houses. Anyway I think the site you are referring to is http://www.thegearbox.org ?
1386-640-008 for just the solenoid, 1386-640-002 for the assembly.
(New numbers for the TR6060 probably replace these.. TUSW6588 and TUSW7406 respectively)
True I've never tried buying one, never needed to.. Thanks for the correction on thegearbox.org. I knew it's not .com and brain farted on that one.
Autogear is funny sometimes.. Extremely helpful sometimes, not so much other times.

The "GM part" / "Tremec part" is dynamic, changing over the years depending on contracts.

Re: Need help Identifing a T-56
Also, I have no doubt 85MikeTPI's part numbers are correct. But I found almost nothing when googling those numbers (except for the Tick website). I found a lot more info when googling the GM numbers. YMMV.
