1995 Used GMC Transmissions For Sale

197 tested 1995 GMC transmissions, every one counted live. 1995 is the last full season of the C/K pickup and the Vandura / Rally van before the Savana arrived, and it is an option-code year: the same C2500, the same Suburban and the same van were built with either the 4L60E (Opt M30) or the heavier 4L80E (Opt MT1), and the RPO code, not the nameplate and not the engine, decides which one bolts up. The 1995 diesel half-ton is the trap inside the trap: a 4x2 C1500 or K1500 on the 6.5L takes the 4L80E while the 4x4 is listed on the 4L60E, so drive layout settles it. Send us your VIN and we will tell you in writing which unit your truck left the plant with.

Why Buy a 1995 GMC Transmission from Auto Power Source

Every 1995 GMC transmission on this page is a used OEM unit pulled from a low-mileage donor vehicle, cleaned, inspected and bench-checked by our ASE-certified technicians before it is listed. We hold 197 of them right now, and that number is read live from stock rather than typed into the page — if a unit sells, the count moves.

1995 is a year where the option code matters more than anything else on the sticker. GMC sold the C/K 2500, the Suburban and the G-series van with a choice of the 4L60E (Opt M30) or the 4L80E (Opt MT1) behind the same engines, and the two boxes are not interchangeable — different case length, different mounting, different tailshaft. A 1995 Suburban 1500 can carry either one. We hold 13 of the 4L80E full-size SUV units and 17 of the 4L60E, and we match on the code, not the badge.

The 6.5L turbo diesel is the second place this year catches people out, and it breaks the pattern the later trucks follow. A 4x2 half-ton diesel is listed on the 4L80E, the heavy four-speed the three-quarter-tons use, while the 4x4 half-ton diesel is listed on the 4L60E, so the drive layout settles it. On the C2500 the diesel splits again on the eighth VIN digit, F or S.

Vans are the single biggest block of stock this year: 28 of our units are 4L80E (Opt MT1) builds for the G1500, G2500, G3500 and G3500 HD Vandura and Rally, with 11 more on the lighter 4L60E. The heavy van listings separate on wheelbase, 125 inch against 146 inch, on whether the pan carries a drain plug, and on the case ID stamp.

Manuals are a real part of stock, not an afterthought: 30 full-size NV3500 and NV4500 units behind the C/K 1500, 2500, 3500 and 3500 HD, and 13 NV1500 and NV3500 boxes in the S10, Sonoma, Jimmy, LLV and Yukon including ZR2.

Every unit ships with our 3-year warranty as standard, free freight to a commercial address in the lower 48, and a 60-day no-fault return window. We do not relabel rebuilt units as used, and we do not ship a transmission until your VIN confirms the option code matches.

Your 1995 GMC Transmission Options: Compared

Most 1995 GMC owners face four real choices when the transmission fails:

← Swipe sideways to see all columns →
Option Cost Reliability Warranty Fitment Match
Used OEM (this collection) $$$ Best Value High — tested Included VIN-matched
New OEM (dealer) $$$$$ 2-4× more High Manufacturer Exact
Aftermarket / Reman $$$$ Varies 6-12 mo May adapt
Junkyard $ Cheapest Unknown None DIY

Tested used OEM hits the sweet spot — same engineering as new, fraction of the cost.

1995 GMC Transmission Buying Guide

5 things to verify before buying a used 1995 GMC transmission:

  1. Read the RPO option code before anything else. On a 1995 GMC, Opt M30 means the 4L60E and Opt MT1 means the 4L80E, and both were fitted to the same nameplates behind the same engines. The code lives on the Service Parts Identification label in the glovebox or on the driver door jamb. Two 1995 C2500 trucks parked side by side can need different transmissions, and nothing on the outside of the truck tells you which.
  2. On a diesel half-ton, check the drive layout as well as the engine. A 1995 C1500 or K1500 on the 4.3L, 5.0L or 5.7L gas engine takes the 4L60E. On the 6.5L diesel the 4x2 is listed on the 4L80E and the 4x4 on the 4L60E, so a half-ton diesel can legitimately take either box. This is the single most common mismatch on 1995 GMC trucks, and it is not something you can read off the badge.
  3. On a 3500, confirm whether it is a 3500 HD — and expect no option code. GMC listed the C3500, C3500 HD and K3500 as separate build families in 1995, and unlike the 1500 and 2500 trucks the one-ton listings carry no RPO transmission code at all. The HD chassis is a different final drive and the listings distinguish 3500 HD from Exc. 3500 HD explicitly. Match the exact one; the VIN is what settles the unit.
  4. On a heavy van, match the wheelbase, the pan and the case ID. The G2500, G3500 and G3500 HD 4L80E listings are separated by 125 inch against 146 inch wheelbase, by whether the pan carries a drain plug, and on the HD builds by the case ID stamped on the transmission. Those are different part numbers, not trim variations.
  5. Confirm the match with your own VIN before you order. Your VIN settles the transmission code, drivetrain and build split in one step. Text it to +1-307-441-5554 and we will confirm in writing exactly which 1995 GMC transmission your vehicle takes before anything ships.

Our ASE-certified technicians verify every one of these points against your VIN before any unit ships.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many 1995 GMC transmissions do you have in stock?
197 right now, across 11 transmission families and 7 model lines. The number on this page is read from live active inventory, not typed in, so it moves as units sell.
What is the difference between Opt M30 and Opt MT1 on a 1995 GMC?
Opt M30 is the 4L60E, the lighter of GM's two electronic four-speed automatics. Opt MT1 is the 4L80E, longer, heavier and built for higher torque. In 1995 GMC fitted both behind the same engines in the C/K 2500, Suburban, Vandura and Rally, so the code is the only reliable identifier, and the two are not interchangeable.
My 1995 K1500 is a 6.5L diesel. Does it take the 4L60E?
It depends on the drive layout, which is what makes 1995 different from the later trucks. The 4x2 half-ton diesel is listed on the 4L80E, the 4x4 half-ton diesel on the 4L60E, and the gas 4.3L, 5.0L and 5.7L half-tons on the 4L60E. Your VIN settles which build you have.
Can a 1995 Suburban take either transmission?
Yes, and that is why the Suburban is the hardest 1995 model to match by sight. A Suburban 1500 or 2500 in either C or K form could be built with the 4L60E (Opt M30) or the 4L80E (Opt MT1), in 4x2 or 4x4, on 5.7L gas, 7.4L gas or the 6.5L diesel. We hold both, 13 of the 4L80E and 17 of the 4L60E.
Do you have 1995 GMC manual transmissions?
Yes, 43 of the 197 units are manuals. 30 are full-size NV3500 and NV4500 boxes behind the C/K 1500, 2500, 3500 and 3500 HD, and 13 are NV1500 and NV3500 units from the S10, Sonoma, Jimmy, LLV and Yukon including ZR2 builds. On the full-size trucks the bell housing settles which box you need.
Why do your 1995 G3500 van listings show codes like ID LAP and ID BYP?
Those are the case ID stamps on the transmission itself. On the one-ton and 3500 HD vans GMC used several distinct 4L80E builds in the same model year and the stamp is the only thing separating them: LAP and LHP on the diesel, BMP, BYP, MBP and MRP on the 5.7L, DNP, MSP and TSP on the 7.4L.
What warranty comes with a 1995 GMC transmission?
A 3-year warranty as standard on every unit, with free freight to a commercial address in the lower 48 and a 60-day no-fault return window. Extended cover is available at checkout.
How do I make sure I get the right unit?
Text your VIN to +1-307-441-5554, email info@autopowersource.com or call 1-877-313-8995. We read the RPO option code, drivetrain and engine off your VIN and confirm in writing which 1995 GMC transmission your vehicle takes before anything ships.

Our 6-Step Inspection & Shipping Process

Every GMC transmission we ship has been through these six steps:

1. VIN-Matching
We match the donor VIN to your VIN to confirm transmission code, drivetrain, and 2WD/4WD configuration.
2. Tested & Verified
ASE-certified technicians Shift-Test every gear under load. Units are checked for clean engagement, no slipping, no abnormal noises.
3. Noise & Smoke Verification
Units are run to verify normal mechanical sound and clean operation — catches internal wear static tests miss.
4. Visual Inspection
Every accessible component is inspected: bell housing, output shaft, solenoid pack, cooler lines, sensor harnesses.
5. Photograph & Catalog
Multi-angle photos sent to you BEFORE we ship for your approval.
6. Palletize & Ship
Strapped on a heavy-duty wooden pallet, shipped via freight at no charge.

Before any transmission leaves our warehouse, we send you multi-angle photographs. You approve. If you do not approve, you get every dollar back — no questions, no restocking fees, no return freight charges. On top of 30-day money-back and the warranty included with every unit.
