GMC Safari — First generation (M-body) (1985–1994)

No GMC order guide, RPO list or kit for the first-generation Safari is in the repository, so the rows come from the Chevrolet Astro Heritage kits, read for the M-body codes the two vans share. The 1986 to 1990 books in those kits are joint Astro/Safari books (dealer data book power team and option price pages headed and footed Astro/Safari, and option charts whose model key pairs the Safari SLX, SLE and SLT with the Astro trims, and 1986, 1987 and 1988 trim pages headed by the ZW9, YC5, YC6 and YC7 body ordering codes beside the Safari SL, SLX, SLE and SLT or Touring names), and every row cites only those joint pages; the model and price page of each 1986 to 1988 section (Astro models only, footed Astro Page 5) and the 1987 cargo van feature pages are Chevrolet pages and date no year here, and the 1991 to 1994 books are Chevrolet-only Astro data books, order guides and technical guides, so those years carry only the LB4 and L35 engines, as single-source rows. No kit page of the 1985 model year is in the archive (the kit file labelled 1985 holds the 1986 data book), so no code is claimed for 1985. The joint pages show passenger and cargo vans, extended and all-wheel-drive passenger vans in 1990, the 2.5L L4 (LN8, cargo van), the 4.3L V6 (LB4) and a high output 4.3L (LU2), with 4 and 5 speed manual and 4 speed automatic transmissions; NICB's 1987 VIN manual prints a small van line, and its 1990 to 1994 manuals footnote their van lines as including the GMC Safari. Against the merged Astro doc, years that rest only on Chevrolet pages are left out (so ZQ2, ZQ3, ZY7, NA5, NA6 and YF5 have no row, G80, ZY1 and ZY3 start later), the joint trim pages and body ordering code weight tables add YC5 1987, YC6 1986 and 1988, YC7 1988 and ZW9 1988 (the 1987 trim pages and weight table, dated September 1986 and February 1987, are bound into the 1988 kit; the 1987 kit's own trim and weight pages are September 1987 copies of the 1988 book's and date 1988), the 1989 option selection key adds YC7 for 1989, the joint pages add LB4 1989, GT4 1988, K05 1986 and the D20 passenger sunshade, and codes the Astro doc dates only from the 1991 to 1994 books are not carried.
