Oil Pump

1. Install oil pump Pilot Studs C-3288-B, or equivalent in case.
2. Install new oil pump gasket on pilot studs and seat it in case. Be sure gasket is properly aligned with fluid passages in case.





3. Coat front clutch thrust washer with petroleum jelly to hold it in place. Then install washer over reaction shaft hub and seat it on pump.

CAUTION: The thrust washer bore (I.D.), is chamfered on one side. Make sure the chamfered side is installed so it faces the pump.





4. Check seal rings on reaction shaft support. Be sure rings are hooked together correctly. Also be sure fiber thrust washer is in position. Use extra petroleum jelly to hold washer in place if necessary.
5. Lubricate oil pump seals with petroleum MOPAR ATF+4.





6. Mount oil pump on pilot studs and slide pump into case opening. Work pump into case by hand. Do not use a mallet or similar tools to seat pump.
7. Remove pilot studs and install oil pump bolts. Tighten pump bolts alternately and evenly to fully seat pump in case. Then final-tighten pump bolts to 20 Nm (15 ft. lbs.) torque.
8. Verify correct installation. Rotate input and intermediate shafts and check for bind. If bind exists, components are either mix-assembled, or not seated. Disassemble and correct as necessary before proceeding.
