Notice: Support the back side of the torque converter housing while installing the bearing cup. Install the bearing cup until it stops moving. Applying excessive pressure to the bearing cup once it is seated could cause damage to the torque converter housing casting.

Notice: Failure to apply the lubricant will cause damage to the bolt and nut threads.

Procedure

  1. Tighten DT 47927-1 which is part of DT-47927 until it fits snugly on the bearing cup.
  2. Adjust J 45124 so it sits on the torque converter housing surface just beyond the bearing cup opening.
  3. Apply the extreme pressure lubricant supplied with J 23444-A to the puller bolt threads to prevent damage to the bolt threads during bearing cup removal.
  4. Hold the puller bridge bolt and turn the nut to remove the bearing cup.
