manufacturer’s specified transmission
fluid into the drive hub. Use a small
amount to coat the splines of the input
shaft protruding from the transmission.
CAUTION: When installing the
Banks Billet Torque Converter, be
careful to not damage the pump
gear O-ring or hub seal.
23.
Lift the Banks Billet Torque
converter and position it in front of
the transmission input shaft. Turn the
torque converter as needed to index
properly and engage the transmission
input shaft splines, then carefully
work the torque converter onto the
transmission input shaft until it is
recessed behind the front transmission
mounting flange. Use a straightedge
to verify there is a gap between the
converter pilot hub face and housing
(see Figure 5). This ensures that the
Torque converter is fully engaged to
the input shaft and the drive hub is
sealed properly.
24.
Retain the torque converter with
the converter holding tool, if available.
25.
Before installing the transmission
into the vehicle, Gale Banks
Engineering recommends flushing and
thoroughly cleaning the transmission
cooler, lines, and cooler bypass valve.
Lubricating the converter pilot hub
with multipurpose grease is also
recommended.
26.
Position the transmission
near the engine and remove the
converter holding tool, if used. Align
the converter studs with the engine
flexplate. Install the transmission to
the engine.
27.
Reinstall the six (6) transmission
mounting bolts through the
transmission mounting flange and into
the engine. Torque evenly to 45 ft-lbs.
28.
If previously removed, reinstall
any disconnected exhaust system
components.
29.
Reinstall the transmission
crossmember onto the frame rails.
Reinstall and torque the crossmember
bolts to 60 ft-lbs (see Figure 4).
30.
Rotate the torque converter and
install the NEW (supplied) converter-
to-flexplate 3 ⁄
8
”-24 nuts. Evenly torque
the nuts to 30 ft-lbs (see Figure 3).
31.
Reinstall the inspection cover and
torque the bolts to 15 ft-lbs.
32.
Verify the transmission is secured
to the crossmember and remove the
transmission hoist.
Note: The transmission fluid,
transmission fluid filter and pan gasket
should be serviced at this time. Follow
the instructions in the vehicles owner’s
manual for servicing the transmission.
33.
For 4x4 models, reinstall the
transfer case.
A) Hoist the transfer case to the
extension housing. Reinstall the six (6)
mounting bolts and torque to 37 ft-lbs.
B) Reconnect the three (3) position
switch harness connector and
gearmotor encoder harness
connectors.
c) Align and reinstall the front
driveshaft to the transfer case.
D) Reinstall the manual shift linkage
and remove the transfer case hoist.
34.
Re-align and re-attach the front of
the rear driveshaft to the transmission
or transfer case output shaft / flange.
On flanged models, only tighten the
attachment bolts finger-tight at this
time.
For models equipped with a two (2)
piece driveshaft, re-install the center
bearing support and hand-tighten the
mounting bolts.
