May 2011 at 21:41 Yes, it will come off fine. But NEVER fit the torque convertor to the flex plate before fitting the box, it must always be fitted to the box first and ensure its fully home.

May 2011 at 07:13 i have read older posts on replacing the box and got the message about the converter going on with the box and not remaining on the engine, and if the sore back is anything to do with removing the autobox Albs i appologise for making you work so hard
