INSTALLATION
1. CHECK TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH INSTALLA-
TION
Using calipers and a straight edge, measure from the distance
from the installed surface of the transmission housing to the
installed surface of the torque converter clutch.
Correct distance: More than 0.1 mm (0.004 in.)
If the distance is less than the standard, check for an improper
installation.
2. INSTALL TRANSMISSION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
(See page AT±28)
HINT:
After installation, check and inspect items as follows.

Adjust the shift lever position. (See page DI±318)

Fill ATF and check fluid level. (See page DI±318)

Do the road test. (See page DI±318)
