The gears are easy to install. The tail extension housing does not need to be removed from the transmission.

1. Remove the exhaust system.

2. Remove the driveshaft.

3. Remove the speedometer sensor. Be ready for about 3 ounces of lubricant to emerge.

4. Push down the tab and remove the spring clip for the transmission shaft gear from the transmission output shaft.

5. Slide the original gear down the transmission shaft and out of the back of the transmission.

6. Oil the new gears and install them. Don't let the spring clip fly away!

7. Add 3 ounces of make up lubricant. The factory used GM PN 1052931. In 2007 PN 1052931 was replaced by PN 12345349. In 2012 GM discontinued 12345349. In 2017 GM PN 88900333 was available.We recommend Amsoil MTF 100% synthetic transmission lubricant. GM 12345349 and 88900333 are synthetic blends.
