Important: The flexplate (1) will not initially seat against the crankshaft flange, but will be pulled onto the crankshaft by the flexplate to crankshaft retaining bolts (2). This procedure requires a 3 stage tightening process.
Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in the Preface section.
Important: Make sure the teeth of the J 42386-A J 42386-A (1) engage correctly with the ring gear teeth, before tightening the flexplate bolts.
Tighten
• | Tighten a first pass in sequence to 20 N·m (15 lb ft). |
• | Tighten a second pass in sequence to 50 N·m (37 lb ft). |
• | Tighten a final pass in sequence to 100 N·m (74 lb ft). |
Important:
• For manual transmission applications, note the position and direction
of the engine flywheel before removal. Mark or scribe the end of the crankshaft and
flywheel before component removal. The existing manual transmission engine flywheel
must be installed to the original position and direction. • The flywheel does not use a locating pin for alignment and will not initially
seat against the crankshaft flange, but will be pulled onto the crankshaft by the
engine flywheel bolts. This procedure requires a 3 stage tightening process. • Do not remove the propeller shaft hub or flex plate from the automatic
transmission flex plate assembly. The flex plate and propeller shaft hub are balanced
as an assembly. If service is required, the entire flex plate assembly should be replaced.
Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in the Preface section.
