NOTE:
If the transmission was disassembled, the differential carrier tapered roller bearing preload must be adjusted.
Apply a light coat of clean transmission fluid on all parts before installation.

1. Differential Carrier Tapered Roller Bearing Outer Race (Torque Converter Housing Side) - Install
1.
Install the 76 mm thrust shim (A).
2.
Install the 41 x 76.2 x 1 mm spacer (B) by aligning the tab (C) with the groove (D).
3.
Install the differential carrier tapered roller bearing outer race (E) using the 15 x 135L driver handle and the 72 x 75 mm bearing driver attachment so there is no clearance between the bearing outer race, the 41 x 76.2 x 1 mm spacer, the 76 mm thrust shim, and the torque converter housing.

2. Differential Carrier Tapered Roller Bearing Outer Race (Transmission Housing Side) - Install
1.
Install the 41 x 92 x 1 mm spacer (A) by aligning the tab (B) with the groove (C).
2.
Install the differential carrier tapered roller bearing outer race (D) using the 15 x 135L driver handle and the 78 x 90 mm attachment so there is no clearance between the bearing outer race, the 41 x 92 x 1 mm spacer, and the transmission housing.

3. Torque Converter Housing - Install
1.
Install the differential assembly (A).
2.
Install the torque converter housing (B) with the dowel pins (C) and a new gasket (D), and tighten the bolts in a crisscross pattern in at least two steps.

4. Differential Carrier Tapered Roller Bearing Preload - Inspect
1.
Rotate the differential assembly in both directions to seat the bearings using the preload inspection tool.
2.
Measure the starting torque using the preload inspection tool, a torque wrench (A), and a socket (B).
NOTE: Measure the starting torque at normal room temperature in both directions.
Standard
 
New Bearing:
 
1.35?3.07 N·m (13.8?31.3 kgf·cm, 12.0?27.2 lbf·in)
 
Reused Bearing:
 
1.06?2.78 N·m (10.8?28.3 kgf·cm, 9.4?24.6 lbf·in)
3.
If the measurement is out of the standard, remove the 76 mm thrust shim, and measure its thickness.
4.
Select a new 76 mm thrust shim.
NOTE:
To increase the starting torque, increase thickness of the 76 mm thrust shim.
To decrease the starting torque, decrease the thickness of the 76 mm thrust shim.
Changing the 76 mm thrust shim to the next size will increase or decrease starting torque about 0.3?0.4 N·m (3?4 kgf·cm, 2?3 lbf·in).
Do not use more than two thrust shims to adjust the starting torque.
