  2. Object Number: 309963  Size: SH
  3. Use the J 37096 to secure the flywheel in order to prevent the crankshaft from rotating.
  4. Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

  5. Install the new flywheel bolts.
  6. Tighten
    Tighten the bolts to 15 N·m (11 lb ft). Use the J 45059 to tighten the bolts an additional 50 degrees.
