2WD
(1) Fabricate 4 alignment dowels from 5/16x11/2
inch bolts. Cut the head off the bolts and cut a slot
into the top of the dowel. This will allow easier instal-
lation and removal with a screwdriver (Fig. 68).

Adhesive Sealant, or equivalent in the corner of the
cap and the cylinder block.
(4) Slide the one-piece gasket over the dowels and
onto the block.
(5) Position the oil pan over the dowels and onto
the gasket.
(6) Install the oil pan bolts. Tighten the bolts to 24
N´m (215 in. lbs.) torque.
(7) Remove the dowels. Install the remaining oil
pan bolts. Tighten these bolts to 24 N´m (215 in. lbs.)
torque.
(8) Install the drain plug. Tighten drain plug to 34
N´m (25 ft. lbs.) torque.
(9) Lower transmission onto crossmember.
(10) Install rear support cushion mounting bolts.
Tighten bolts 28 N´m (250 in. lbs.).
(11) Raise engine by way of oil pan with a wood
block placed between jack and oil pan.(12) Remove through bolts from frame brackets
and lower engine. Install mount insulator through
bolts and tighten to 95 N´m (70 ft. lbs.).
(13) Install starter.
(14) Install transmission torque converter inspec-
tion cover.
(15) Install engine to transmission braces.
(16) Install exhaust pipe.
(17) Lower vehicle.

able ridge reamer before removing pistons from cylin-
der block. Be sure to keep tops of pistons covered
during this operation.
(5) Be sure the connecting rod and connecting rod
cap are identified with the cylinder number. Remove
connecting rod cap. Install connecting rod bolt guide
set on connecting rod bolts.
(6) Pistons and connecting rods must be removed
from top of cylinder block. When removing piston and
connecting rod assemblies, rotate crankshaft to center
the connecting rod in the cylinder bore and at BDC.
Be careful not to nick crankshaft journals.
(7) After removal, install bearing cap on the mating rod.
