Automatic Transmission Bushing 003 Converter Hub (Use 79002)

When the converter hub bushing wears out, the pump bore and front seal take the damage, and what starts as a small wobble turns into a leak and accelerated pump wear. This single bushing is cataloged for the 010, 087, 089, and 090 automatic transmission units built from 1975 through 1991, and it corresponds to replacement reference 79002.

The bushing sits between the torque converter hub and the front pump bore. Its job is to keep the converter centered and limit radial movement during operation. When that fit opens up beyond specification, the pump seal cannot maintain a stable seating surface, fluid starts migrating forward, and the pump body itself begins to show uneven wear on the bore wall. Replacing the bushing at the right point in the repair stops that chain of damage before it reaches the pump housing.

This listing is for one bushing, nothing else. There are no clutch packs, steels, gaskets, seals, Automatic Transmission Filters, or additional parts included. If your overhaul requires those components, they need to be sourced separately. Check your parts list against what you already have before placing the order.

At REMCO, individual components like this one are pulled and inspected by hand before the order ships, the same process used since 1991 for transmission parts. The packing includes a parts list that travels with the order so the technician can confirm what arrived.

To make sure this bushing is the right fit for your job, confirm the transmission identification code is 010, 087, 089, or 090, verify the production year falls within the 1975 to 1991 range, and measure the pump bore diameter before installation. A bushing that matches the catalog number but goes into a bore that has already worn beyond spec will not restore the fit you need.

• Restores proper converter hub alignment and helps avoid wear caused by a loose or worn bushing in the 010, 087, 089, and 090 transmission families.
• This listing covers one bushing only. It does not include clutch discs, steels, seals, gaskets, Automatic Transmission Filters, or any other component. Verify the full scope of your repair before ordering.
• The hub bushing controls the radial fit between the converter hub and the pump bore. A worn bushing allows side-load movement that accelerates pump seal and pump body wear over time.
• Contents: 1 converter hub bushing. Reference part 79002 as the current replacement designator. Item weight: 1 lb.
• Before ordering, confirm your transmission code is 010, 087, 089, or 090 and that the unit was built between 1975 and 1991. Cross-check with your pump bore measurement to ensure correct fit.
