Installation Notes and Tips

Verify shaft diameter, outside diameter, width, and position before installation. Clean the sealing bore and shaft surface thoroughly, and inspect for wear, scoring, or burrs that could affect seal life. Confirm transmission type and notes such as THM700, THM475, THM250, THM375, Powerglide, or Torque Drive exclusions where listed in the fitment data. For best results, install the seal squarely and avoid damaging the sealing lip during assembly.
