  3. Install the torque converter housing assembly (10) to the transmission case assembly.
    CAUTION: Refer to FASTENER NOTICE .
  4. Install the following fasteners and hand tighten.

    Tightening torque 

    • 2 - torque converter housing studs (3) - M8 x 1.25 x 30 
    • 1 - torque converter housing bolt torx (8) - M8 x 1.25 x 30 
    • 9 - torque converter housing bolt (4) - M8 x 1.25 x 30

  6. Insert DT-47687 (1) into the axle shaft opening of the differential and rotate DT-47687 (1) until it engages with the differential pinion shaft (645).
  7. Using a torque wrench, measure the rotational torque required to slowly rotate the front differential assembly and note the readings.

    Tightening torque 

    Specification should be within 0.70-1.20 N.m (6-11 lb in)  .

  8. If the obtained measurement is within specifications, the differential shim replacement is not necessary. If obtained measurement is not within the listed specifications, the front differential bearing race shim must be replaced.
  9. Remove DT-47687 (1) from the front differential assembly.
  10. Remove the torque converter housing assembly and the front differential assembly from the transmission case.

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
  • • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
