General Installation Practices Dear Customer, If you have any questions concerning the installation of your Banks Power System, please call our Technical Service Hotline at (888) 839-2700 between 7:00 am and 5:00 pm (PT). If you have any questions relating to shipping or billing, please contact our Customer Service Department at (888) 839-5600. Thank you. 1. Familiarize yourself with the installation procedure by reading the installation manual before starting work. 2.
Tools Required: Notice To Installer: • 3⁄ 8” and 1⁄ 2” drive ratchets with metric sockets including 1⁄ 2” and 3⁄ 8” drive extension Banks recommends replacing your transmission fluid, transmission fluid filter and transmission pan gasket. Failure to service transmission may result in torque converter damage.
Installation Procedure 1. Disconnect the negative (ground) cable from the battery (if there is more than one battery, disconnect both negative cables). Secure the cable so it cannot accidentally come in contact with the post. 2. Raise the vehicle high enough to remove the transmission and support it securely with properly weight-rated safety stands, ramps or a commercial hoist. Take care to balance the vehicle to prevent it from slipping or falling.

11. Mark the propeller shaft and axle yokes for assembly alignment, then disconnect and remove the propeller shaft. On 4x4 models, remove both propeller shafts. s(It is common for transmission fluid to drain from the rear after driveshaft removal.) 12. Disconnect wires from the park/ neutral position switch, transmission solenoid and vehicle speed sensor. Disconnect the gearshift rod and torque shaft assembly from transmission. 13.
20. Lower the transmission and remove it from under the vehicle. 21. Once the transmission and torque converter assembly are removed, place a suitable drain pan under the converter-housing end of the transmission. CAUTION: Verify that the transmission is secured to the lifting device. When torque converter is removed, the transmission’s center of gravity will shift and transmission may become unstable. 22. Carefully slide the torque converter out of the transmission.
25. Align and carefully install the converter drive pilot hub into the oil pump. Be sure the converter drive pilot hub is fully seated in pump gears (rotating and pushing the converter inward may help in the seating process). You should feel the torque converter engage three (3) times while installing the transmission. 26. Check converter seating with a ruler and straightedge (Figure 5). The surface of the converter lugs should protrude approximately 1⁄ 2” in front of the transmission flange.
