PML designed this transmission pan for 2006 and newer Cadillac, GMC, and Chevrolet cars and GM trucks and SUVs with the 6L80, 6L80E transmission.
Benefits:
- Maintains ground clearance or clearance to skid plate, only 5/8 inch deeper than stock
- Heavy duty sand cast aluminum construction
- Finned to dissipate heat from transmission fluid
- Drain hole and magnetic drain plug for easier maintenance
- Fill/level check hole and plug for filling the transmission through the pan
- Thick walls to add strength to the transmission housing
- Thick gasket flange, machined flat for a leak free seal
There are several stock pans for the 6L80. This pan design is based on stock pan AC Delco part number 24243526.
For vehicles without a dipstick, there is a fill/level check hole on the rear of the OEM pan. On some OEM pans, the fill/level check is 5/8 inch below the flange. This is measured on the INSIDE of pan. The PML pan is made with a level check 5/8 inch below the flange but the PML pan level check can be machined to match other OEM pans.
If the exhaust crosses underneath the stock pan, you may need to drop or lower the exhaust to install this pan. Three bolts are difficult to access and there is not any space to manuever the thicker PML pan on to the transmission housing.
This pan is about 5/8″ deeper than the 3.3″ stock pan.
