Crankshaft Balancer Installation Automatic Transmission

Tools Required

1. Lubricate the seal surface of the crankshaft balancer with engine oil.
2. Install the crankshaft balancer.
3. Use J 37096 to hold the flywheel.

Notice: This bolt is designed to permanently stretch when tightened, and therefore MUST be replaced anytime it is removed. The correct part number fastener must be used to replace this type of fastener. Do not use a bolt that is stronger in this application. If the correct bolt is not used, the parts will not be tightened correctly. The system or the components may be damaged.

Notice: Properly align the crankshaft balancer keyway with the crankshaft key before installation. Damage can occur to the crankshaft balancer, the crankshaft, or the installation tool if the components are not properly aligned.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

4. Install the crankshaft balancer bolt.

Tighten
Tighten the crankshaft balancer bolt to 150 N·m (111 lb ft). Use J 36660-A to tighten the crankshaft balancer bolt an additional 76 degrees.
