Torque converter installation

[silver_pilate]

Funny thing is....I had the same question when I started out. I didn't know a great deal about the process involved in swapping the converters. I knew what a converter did, how it worked, etc. I just didn't know if there was some kind of short-cut to avoid pulling the tranny (I was pretty clueless...I'll admit ). Mach 1, I remember you told me exactly the same thing.

90lx, if you've got a basic working understanding of mechanics and can swap an alternator out, you can swap a converter out. It just involves a whole lot more time and a lot more bolts. Take your time and be careful, and you'll be ok. DO get someone to help you. I had two people helping out and it was what was needed. A tranny jack helps a great deal, and you have to be able to get the tranny out from under the car so it must be raised up sufficiently. Anyway, if you feel ambicious and know your way around a tool box, you'll be fine. Give a hollar with any questions.
