Reinstall the rear drive shaft.
A) Re-align and re-attach the
driveshaft to the transmission or
transfer case output shaft/ flange.
For flanged models only hand-
tighten the attachment bolts.
B) Re-align and re-attach the rear
of the driveshaft to the rear axle
pinion flange. Torque the bolts to
76 ft-lbs. For models with strap-
type rear axle pinion yokes, remove
the electrical tape retaining the
bearing caps on the rear of the
driveshaft and re-attach it to the
rear axle or coupling shaft ,for
three piece driveshaft, using the
u-joint retainer and bolts. Torque

refilling.
55.
Reconnect the battery cable(s).
56.
Start the vehicle and allow
engine to reach normal operating
temperatures. With the vehicle
lightly loaded, accelerate gently and
allow the torque converter to lock
and unlock a minimum of fifteen
(15) times. This can be achieved
by lightly accelerating from 20
MPH to 50 MPH multiple times. If
possible, monitor transmission fluid
temperature to verify proper torque
converter and transmission operation.
Fluid temperatures much higher
than normal can be indicative of a
malfunctioning transmission and/or
torque converter. Check transmission
fluid level and add the manufacturer’s
specified type of fluid as needed.
Installation of the Banks Billet Torque
Converter is now complete.
