Default

Apply threadlock GM P/N 12345382 or equivalent to the threads of the coupling bolts. (I used blue loctite)

Important: If the coupling orientation mark has been lost during the cleaning or disassembly process, the coupling MUST be installed with the directional arrow pointed toward the flange to which it mounts.

Tighten the coupling bolts - Automatic Transmission to 52 lb ft, Manual Transmission to 66 lb ft.
