Hey, I drive a 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP and the transmission on it is bad and needs to be replaced. I‘ve been looking around but there seem to be multiple versions of the 4-speed automatic transmission on this model, xab and xbb. How can i figure out which transmission is in my car? (preferably without pulling the transmission out)Thanks
If you're choosing between the Ninja 250 and the Rebel 250, pick the Ninja 250. You can do a wheelie or a stoppie on a sportbike. Cruisers aren't balanced for that, . but -- consider seat height. On a typical sportbike, you're more visible because you're sitting higher and your motorcycle isn't painted the same color as the asphalt. Me, I ride a cruiser ratbike, because it was given to me. If I had my choice, I'd be riding something like the Kawasaki Versys or Suzuki V-Strom 650.
The traction given by a Ninja 250 tyre is more than enough to put the power down is only has 30bhp after all. A bike is only as safe as the rider. I would prefer a sports bike as if you go into a corner abit fast you can lean it more but on a cruiser parts will hit the floor.
Call any car parts recycler and they will find you a good used tranny and also verify the mileage on the car it came from. My 1998 GTP tranny cost me $600. Just make sure you change the filter and ATF. I also put the $100 shift kit from 3800 Performance in the trans while replacing the filter. It's very easy to install and gives you firm shifts and extends the life of the transmission.
whether this is the TC lock up(which they're common for such as you suggested) danger is seize textile is flowing in the process the trans.IMO you're finding at a tender areas rebuild. basically changing the solenoid won't restoration the problem.
