Time to install the Front pump.

Place the Pump to Case Paper Gasket in the Case, Orient it correctly with holes in the case. 87 & up use the gasket with Reliefs cut on the Pump Bolts holes, The Early ones do not (A lot of seal kits come with both)

Stick the Plastic Thrust washer to the Back of the Pump/Stator shaft with TransJel, Make sure the locating tabs go in the machined holes.

Make sure the Pump O-ring is installed, Lube with TransJel.

Lube the Stator Shaft Sealing rings, Center them by hand afterward.

Lube Stator Shaft Bushings.

Locating Dowels are handy, Cut the heads of 2 long 8x1.25mm bolts, Thread them in the Case 180 degrees apart.

Orient the pump over the Case/Locating Dowels, Lower Pump until it stops.
Work the pump down with hand pressure, The 1 piece Stator Rings like to fight you, The have to shrink pretty good to get past the Reverse Input Bushing, You can Work the Pump down with a Dead blow hammer....LIGHTLY & alternate where you hit.

Do Not force the pump down with bolts, You will most likely roll one of the sealing rings, Then you will not have Reverse.

Once the Pump is bottomed, Remove the Dowels.

Put new O-rings seals on the Pump Bolts (Early model bolts take sealing washers)
Install bolts & Torque to 18 ft.lbs in a star pattern.....Yes you NEED to torque them!!
