Tranny rebuild

TB_6230 · 09-20-2006

I have an extra auto tranny sitting around and tore into it to see if I could rebuild it. I was wondering if any of you knew where to get kits for this (i haven't really looked yet) and I was also wondering if anybody knows the specs to rebuild it to? Factory service manual would have this I assume. Anyway, TIA.

Contact "Transtar" in Tucker, GA and ask about a TH-180 kit

Never ask about rebuilding an Opel auto - Always call it a "GM TH180" or a " GM Tri-Matic" or even a "GM Strasbourg" and you will find that most Trans shops know what you are talking about because it was used in LOTS of smaller GM car right up to Suzuki 'SideKicks' in the 1990s.

BTW: Strasbourg .. in France .. is where GM have the auto trans plant that they are made in.
