So I started off driving one day with hard shifting and then BOOM I though I blew my torque converter so I dropped the trans same day and found that my pump went out and broke the 2 pieces that hold on the torque converter so I ordered a new pump and now I’m having trouble putting the new one in as it will not set in place I have no idea what I’m doing wrong and need some pointers

Pull the pump and let us see what you got inside.

It’* also off center when I try to put the pump in the bottom of the trans a lot more space than the top

I was wanting to see straight down on it. When you try and wiggle it to go down does it stick?

Yea it sticks and won’t go down any further

It wouldn’t go any further down than the first picture I sent

Does the shaft rotate OK? Is it straight? I think the shaft may be bent right at the bearing. Even a small amount will bind it up. Did the pump pull off easy enough?

Is that a new pump or a used pump?

Did you replace all of the shaft seals?

I figured it out guys part of the shaft was pressed up against the sidewall so I moved it and it slid right in lol the trans is back in my truck now and she’* back on the road the shifting is a little rough any ideas on what could cause that?

It'll take a bit for it to get the adaptives learned.
