If you are going to do any real detective work a parts manual is a good reference to have. Axle and engine codes are only a small fraction of the useable data. Now since I have posted links several times to a parts catalog and the GM parts Wiki I'm going to make you work just a bit. So go to the link and read, if you must shortcut down to post #17. Remember parts manuals are like a new language if you have not been exposed to them before.
