You remove the checkball and capsule assembly. Make sure you install a new O-ring on the input shaft. Add one quart of fluid to the TC before installing it.

What does the the checkball and capsule assembly actually do? Does it only have to be removed with the ACT converters?

How do you remove it? Is it that X looking thing in the input shaft? Do you just put a screwdriver in there and turn it out and thats it or do I need to do someting else? I am running the ACT converter on a 700R4.
