135058, Torque Converter Bolts
Posted by panthers4, Sep-11-11 10:01 AM
Im trying to reinsall by rebuilt engine. Im having trouble trying to line up torque converter and the flexplate. I have one bolt conneting the 2 at the moment but the others holes are not line up so i screw in the other 3 bolts. Ive already hooked up the motor mount,the transmiison bolts to the engine but for some reason converter bolt holes isnt lining up but one. Any ideas?

When I had an auto when replacing the tranny I had the same problem. Try turning The flywheel till all the bolt holes line up. I have had this problem with other Chrysler flywheels as well. It seems that they made the holes to bolt in a certain way. I had one that was half a hole off spun the flywheel to about three holes down and it lined up perfect.

As Will mentioned, spin the converter to line up the holes as they are not symmetrical.

Also make an attempt to use proper spelling, punctuation, and grammar.
