Installation Notes and Tips

Verify bearing dimensions and transmission application before installation. Inspect the input shaft, clutch components, and surrounding bore for wear or damage, and replace any parts that show scoring or looseness. Clean the mounting area thoroughly so the seal surfaces seat correctly, and follow the vehicle service manual for installation procedure and torque specifications.
