Deep Trans Pan?

Here's an easy one for you tranny guys. I have a 99 Z71 with the 5.3L and



4L60E. I've been through the rpo's and can't find the option for the deep transmission pan. How do I find out? My pan is about an inch and a half, but I haven't crawled under there to measure exactly yet. Is there a P/N or something to verify which is what?

In the old days, they didn't have a drain, so they fixed that. Now you have to disassemble stuff to get to the pan bolts. GM sure has some wizards working there.

I didn't know there was an optional "deep" pan from the factory.

do not about drain bolt but on my 98 suburban 4l60e, it come with a deep pan.

this is what i learned in my case anyway. the normal pan is "flat" as in same depth for the entire pan. deep pan has a step in the pan as in two different depth in the pan and require a deep pan filter.
