Yes, but it also says fits LS/LT. That would be a F23 Getrag not Saab/F35. Some say the F23 better of the 2. F23 is also cheaper
What you want is a F35 or upgrade to a F40 6-speed if you want to stay with Saab.

They list it fits, don’t say you’re gonna need extra parts.

Do not trust parts suppliers listings, especially when getting it wrong would be a big deal. Some are worse than others, but they tend to just blindly copy other vendors mistakes, and/or beleive whatever nonsense the manufacturers claim.
Call any GM parts department and give them you VIN. They can tell you the correct p/n for that specific car.

It’s an SS. Without the GMPP tune, the life will depend upon the driver’s traffic light proclivities.
Well, maybe with the tune, too.
Are you suggesting it might just be a solenoid or something? Because that’s a good point.
OP did discuss a bearing problem in another thread.

I just have never heard of a standard trans made this century that failed. Clutches are designed to be the weak point. Last century synchro rings sometimes failed.
FWIW, the F23 in the LS/LT is supposed to be the less problematic. Evidently the F35 has some weakness in the shift forks. Information from the interwebs, not from personal experience.
