    2. B003U9TC01
      *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.

    3. B003TYNC01
      *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.

    4. B003VFFC01
      *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.
