Illustrations comparing FW & RM steering damper configuration
93 FW cooling system - water pump components - I don't understand the "how or why" that necessitated the need for the FW to have a different water pump setup in 1993, but I believe that the extra components (item 18, basically) shown in this illustration are what caused the FW to have the steering damper mounted to the LEFT frame rail instead of being just like the Buick.
93 FW steering linkage (shows steering damper - connected to left frame rail)
94-96 FW steering linkage (shows steering damper - connected to left frame rail)
94-96 RM steering linkage (shows steering damper - connected to left frame rail even though we KNOW it connects to right frame rail)
91-93 RM steering linkage (does not show steering damper)
92-93 RM steering column, showing NV7 sensor (item 90)
GM bulletin (TSB) was issued to cover the 92-93 RM with NV7 on a case-by-case basis to add the steering damper - was not production configuration.
