DISMOUNTING
1) Take down transmission with engine. For its procedure, refer
to Section 6A1.
2) For 4WD vehicle, remove transfer referring to Section 7D
For 2WD vehicle, remove engine rear mounting No.1
bracket and engine rear mounting No.2 bracket with stiff-
ener.
3) Remove torque converter housing lower plate (1).
4) Remove drive plate bolts.
To lock drive plate (1), engage a flat head rod or the like (2)
with drive plate gear.
5) Remove starting motor.
6) Remove bolts and nut fastening engine and transmission,
then detach transmission from engine.
NOTE:
When detaching transmission from engine, move it in
parallel with crankshaft and use care so as not to apply
excessive force to drive plate and torque converter.
WARNING:
Be sure to keep transmission with torque converter hori-
zontal or facing up throughout the work. Should it be
tilted with torque converter down, converter may fall off
and cause personal injury.

(a) : 85 N·m (8.5 kg-m, 61.5 lb-ft)
3) Tighten drive plate-torque converter bolts.
Align drive plate bolt hole and torque converter through
starter motor mounting opening then tighten bolts through
torque converter housing lower plate opening.
Lock drive plate (1) by engaging a flat head rod or the like (2)
with drive plate gear.
Tightening torque
Drive plate to torque converter bolts
(a) : 20 N·m (2.0 kg-m, 14.5 lb-ft)
4) Install torque converter housing lower plate (1).
5) Install starter motor.
Tightening Torque
Starter motor bolts : 23 N·m (2.3 kg-m, 16.5 lb-ft)
