Bearing Layout and Shims


In the converter there are a total of 3 bearings. They include 1 self enclosed bearing on the pump side of the stator and 2 ea. Torrington style bearings, 1 ea. between the stator and the turbine, and 1 ea. between the turbine and drive cover.

 

NOTE: that on the Torrington style bearing a race is mandatory on both sides of the bearing and any extra races are used as shims.
 
IMPORTANT: An "O" ring is required to seal the pump and drive cover and NEVER reused an "O" ring or substitute an other product in its place. Failure to do so may result in damage to the product with serious results.
 
Torque specs on the bolts around the converter are 17-20 ft. lbs.
Do Not Over Torque!! Make sure and use a star pattern for the first 8 bolts tightened.

To shim the converter to "full loose" move the extra shims (3 maximum) to the area between the turbine and stator. NOTE: that the shims must remain the same size and you may have to order shims to complete this operation. If your converter has different size races then keep in mind you must remove from one side and then add to the other keeping the same number of shims as you started with.

To shim the converter "full tight" move all extra shims to the area between the turbine and drive cover. NOTE that the shims must remain the same size and you may have to order shims to complete this operation. If your converter has different size races then keep in mind you must remove from one side and then add to the other keeping the same number of shims as you started with.
