INSTALLATION WARNING Keep rear of transmission tilted slightly downward to prevent converter from separating from transmission and causing injury to personnel or damage to equipment. NOTE Check that converter has not moved forward before installing retaining brackets. 1. Measure distance from flat on converter (2) to lip on transmission housing (1); distance cannot be more than 1.5 in. (38 mm). NOTE Ensure that two retaining brackets at the 4 o’clock and 8 o’clock positions are installed on the transmission and converter. If retaining brackets are already installed, skip to step 2. 2. Install two retaining brackets (6), one at the 4 o’clock position and one at the 8 o’clock position, on transmission (3) and converter (2) with four washers (5) and (7) and screws (4) and (8). 3. Install chains on transmission (3) with four screws (9) and (10) and install chains on lifting device. 4. Raise lifting device to remove slack from chain. 5. Apply adhesive to threads of twelve screws (18). 6. Apply a bead of sealer around mating surface of flywheel housing (11) and install adapter (13) on flywheel housing (11) with twelve screws (18). Tighten screws (18) 36-43 lb-ft (49-58 N•m). 7. Remove four screws (4) and (8), washers (5) and (7), and two retaining brackets (6) from transmission (3). 8. Apply adhesive to threads of six screws (17) and install ring (16), flat side on torque converter (2), with six screws (17). Tighten screws (17) 36-43 lb-ft (49-58 N•m). 9. Install four guide screws (12) on adapter (13) at 1, 9, 11, and 12 o’clock positions. CAUTION Maintain alignment of transmission to flywheel at all times to prevent damage to torque converter. 10.
