CAUTION – On models using a

mounting flange for driveshaft

attachment, the driveshaft yokes

fit tightly onto the flange pilots.

To make sure that the yoke seats

squarely onto the flange, evenly

tighten the bolts in a cross pattern.

35.

Tighten the driveshaft-to-

transmission bolts to 76 ft-lbs (if so

equipped).

36.

For models with strap-type

rear axle pinion yokes, remove the

electrical tape retaining the bearing

caps (if used) on the rear of the

driveshaft and re-attach it to the rear

axle. Tighten the fasteners to 26 ft-lbs.

37.

For models with flange-type

rear axle pinion mounts, reinstall the

fasteners and torque to 82 ft-lbs.

38.

Tighten the driveshaft center

support bearing bolts to 47 ft-lbs (if so

equipped).

39.

If applicable, reinstall the

transmission mounted parking brake

assembly and power take-off unit

(PTO).

40.

Reconnect all connectors to the

transmission including the solenoid

body connector, turbine shaft speed

(TSS) and output shaft speed (OSS)

sensors. Reconnect the transmission

range (TR) sensor by:
A) Reconnect the cable housing to the

mounting bracket.
B) Reconnect the shift cable to the

manual lever. (see Figure 2)

41.

Reinstall the transmission cooler

lines to the transmission.

42.

Verify that all previously removed

components are reconnected, all

tools used are accounted for and all

bolts are tightened to manufacturer’s

specifications.

43.

Fill the transmission with the

manufacturer’s specified transmission

fluid.
CAUTION: Do not overfill

transmission fluid. Check the fluid

level periodically during refilling.
Note: To recalibrate your transmission,

the Banks TransCommand should be

installed at this time, or another method

of increasing transmission line pressure

must be used. Failure to install the Banks

TransCommand may result in excessive

clutch wear.

44.

Reconnect the battery cable(s).

45.

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.

46.

Locate the serial number sticker

included in the torque converter

installation kit. This sticker is provided

as a means of allowing Banks

Technical Support to rapidly identify

your individual torque converter

should the need arise. Gale Banks

Engineering recommends permanently

affixing it to a safe location on the

vehicle, such as the inside of the glove

box lid or door jamb, where it can be

quickly located and read. Installation

of the Banks Billet Torque converter is

now complete.
