Converter Housing and Fluid Pump: Assembly
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Ford Ranger. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Thoroughly clean all parts and blow dry with moisture-free compressed air.
- Install a new converter hub-to-housing seal onto the special tool.
- Using the special tool, install the new converter hub-to-converter housing seal into the converter housing, until it bottoms in the housing.
NOTE:
Check and make sure that the garter spring in the seal has not popped off of the converter hub-to-converter housing seal.

CAUTION:
Place the converter housing on a block of wood or equivalent to protect the converter hydraulic passages on the backside.
NOTE:
Do not finish converter housing and fluid pump reassembly at this time. Assembly is completed during transmission assembly to correctly set front end clearance.
