Flex Plate: Service and Repair

Engine Flywheel Replacement

Removal Procedure

1. Remove the automatic transmission. Refer to Transmission Replacement (RPOs LZE/LZ9)  Transmission Replacement (RPO LS4)   .
2. Remove the flywheel bolts and flywheel.
3. Clean and inspect the engine flywheel. Refer to Engine Flywheel Cleaning and Inspection  (See: Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Engine/Service and

Repair/Overhaul) .

Installation Procedure

Important:  The flywheel does not use a locating pin for alignment and will not initially seat against the crankshaft flange or spacer if
applicable, but will be pulled onto the crankshaft by the engine flywheel bolts. This procedure requires a 3-stage tightening process.
