izzo Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 Anyone know what the proper torque is for the flex plate to the torque converter? There's four bolts that connect it. I searched the book but wasn't able to find the torque specs. I don't mean the flex plate to crank. Already found those ones. Thanks! Quote Link to comment

izzo Posted March 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 I got the flex plate to crank bolts spec'd right. But the bolts that go on the flex plate into the torque converter, I can't find those. Just skimmed thru the link. Didn't see them?? It didn't take to much to get the four bolts off...

Eagle_Adam Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 look at the bottom for a torque by bolt size reference. Best i could do man Quote Link to comment
bananahamuck Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 I usually just go tight as you feel comfortablewith,,, with box end then rap them with rubber hammer ,, they are pretty big bolts so probably wont break to easy..the manual i have says,,, Torque convertor housing bolts to 32ft lbs. Tighten drive plate to convertor bolts to 28ft lbs.Not sure what the differance is.. ?? Quote Link to comment

izzo Posted March 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 28lbs is the answer! I noticed they didn't take to much to get them off. Def not like the flex plate to crank bolts. Thems were a bitch lol Thanks! Quote Link to comment
