Differential Carrier Assembly Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Pontiac Montana, 2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette, and 2002 Chevrolet Venture. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The vehicle is powered by the LA1 3400 V-6 engine (VIN-E). Motion/power is transferred from the engine crankshaft/flywheel through the 4T65-E automatic transaxle. A three gear transfer case (1), mated to the right side of the transaxle assembly, transfers torque/power to the rear differential (5) via a propeller shaft assembly (3). The front-to-rear gear ratio is 1.013 to 1.
