HELP
I am trying to turn the crank pully
to rotate the engine and torque converter
what size is the allen in the center of the
pully on an 03 L?

 

methinks it is either 14 or 17 mm ... I can't remember,
but I do know they are HARD to find ... PSP has them and the
tranny lock

 

Hey SVT KY
Thanks man I read a how to and it was not for a L
and suprise there is an allen instead of a hex head.
You guys are great!!!
Hope I can find one I am draining the trans pan now
and need to turn the converter.

 

14mm

 

If you are just trying to turn the converter to get to the drain, here's a trick..

Take the converter plate off the bellhousing, then use either a thin head wratchet with a short 9/16 socket, or a 9/16 wrench with an offset head, and put it on one of the conveters stud nuts. Push the wratchet or wrench in the tightening direction, and the conveter will turn until you hit the bellhousing. There are 6 converter nuts, so you should always have access to one. Then just keep turning the converter till you find the drain. Just keep in mind that most 01-up trucks don't have drains on the converter.

Hope this helps.
