PROCEDURE
INSTALL TORQUE CONVERTER ASSEMBLY
| *a | Drive Plate Surface |
| *b | Engine Assembly Surface |
Using a vernier caliper and straightedge, measure the dimension (A) between the automatic transmission assembly contact surface of the engine assembly (*b) and the torque converter assembly contact surface of the drive plate (*a).
| *a | Matchmark |
Align the matchmark on the automatic transmission case sub-assembly with the one on the torque converter assembly and engage the splines of the input shaft with the turbine runner splines.
Note
Install the torque converter assembly to the input shaft while keeping it horizontal.
| *1 | Front Oil Pump Oil Seal |
Rotate the torque converter assembly approximately 180° and engage the splines of the stator shaft with the stator assembly.
Note
Do not damage the front oil pump oil seal.
Install the torque converter assembly to the input shaft while keeping it horizontal.
| *1 | Front Oil Pump Oil Seal |
Rotate the torque converter assembly approximately 180° again, align the matchmark on the torque converter assembly with the one on the automatic transmission case sub-assembly and insert the key of the torque converter assembly into the groove of the oil pump drive gear.
Note
Do not push the torque converter assembly excessively when rotating it.
Do not damage the front oil pump oil seal.
Install the torque converter assembly to the input shaft while keeping it horizontal.
Using a vernier caliper and straightedge, measure the dimension (B) shown in the illustration and check that the dimension (B) is more than the dimension (A), which was measured in the previous step.
| Standard distance |
|---|
| B = A + 1.00 mm (0.0394 in.) or more |
Note
Make sure to deduct the thickness of the straightedge.
If the automatic transmission assembly is installed to the engine assembly with the torque converter assembly not sufficiently inserted, the torque converter assembly may be damaged.
INSTALL TRANSFER ASSEMBLY
INSTALL LOWER TRANSFER CASE PROTECTOR
Install the lower transfer case protector with the 7 bolts and attach the clamp.
INSTALL AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY
| *1 | Crankshaft |

|
Clutch Spline Grease |
Apply clutch spline grease to the surface of the crankshaft that contacts the torque converter assembly centerpiece.
| Clutch spline grease |
|---|
| Toyota Genuine Clutch Spline Grease or equivalent |
| Maximum grease amount |
|---|
| Approximately 1 g (0.0353 oz.) |
Confirm that the 2 knock pins are installed on the engine assembly and are not damaged.
While keeping the engine assembly and automatic transmission assembly horizontal, align the 2 knock pins with the holes in the automatic transmission assembly and install the 10 bolts.
| Item | Length | Thread Diameter |
|---|---|---|
| Bolt A | 45 mm (1.77 in.) | 17 mm (0.669 in.) |
| Bolt B | 45 mm (1.77 in.) | 14 mm (0.551 in.) |
| Bolt C | 50 mm (1.97 in.) | 17 mm (0.669 in.) |

INSPECT SHIFT LEVER POSITION
When moving the shift lever from P to R with the engine switch on (IG) and the brake pedal depressed, make sure that it moves smoothly and correctly into position.
Check that the shift lever does not stop when moving the shift lever from R to P, and check that the shift lever does not stick when moving the shift lever from D to S.
Start the engine and make sure that the vehicle moves forward after moving the shift lever from N to D and moves rearward after moving the shift lever to R.
If there are problems during the above inspections, perform the adjustment using the following procedures.
Move the shift lever to N
