What torque should the torque converter housing bolts and other transaxle fasteners be tightened to?

The legend lists sixteen torque specs (A–P), e.g. (A) 39-49 N·m (4.0-5.0 kg-m, 29-36 ft-lb), (B) 14-18 N·m (10-13 ft-lb), (N) 69-78 N·m (51-58 ft-lb), and (P) 19-23 N·m (14-17 ft-lb). Each letter corresponds to a fastener location on the exploded diagram.

What should be applied to the front cover oil seal and differential side oil seal?

The diagram notes to apply A.T.F. (automatic transmission fluid) to both the front cover oil seal and the differential side oil seal.

Is any sealer required on the front cover bolts?

Yes — callout (B) states to apply locking sealer to the threads of the bolts.

What clutch assemblies are shown in the exploded view?

The forward clutch (Rear) assembly, high-reverse clutch (Front) assembly, one-way clutch assembly, and low and reverse brake, along with drive plates, driven plates, dished plate, retainer plate, and snap rings.

This is page AT-14 ("MAJOR OVERHAUL") from a Nissan automatic transaxle service manual section, showing a large exploded-view diagram of the automatic transmission/transaxle internal components. A tightening-torque legend lists sixteen fastener specifications (A through P) in N·m, kg-m, and ft-lb — ranging from 2.0-2.5 N·m up to 69-78 N·m. The exploded diagram identifies major components including the torque converter, front cover and oil seal (with a note to apply A.T.F.), gasket, select shims, tapered roller bearings, output shaft, idle gear, differential side oil seal, converter housing, input shaft, idler gear shaft, lock washer, and a bolt used to adjust rotary frictional force of the tapered roller bearing. Planetary gear train parts are also labeled: rear internal gear, one-way clutch assembly, rear and front carriers, sun gear, connecting shell, front internal gear, thrust washers, thrust needle bearings, bearing races, and snap rings. Clutch pack components shown include retainer plates, drive plates, driven plates, dished plate, low and reverse brake, oil pump shaft, forward clutch (rear) assembly, and high-reverse clutch (front) assembly. Assembly notes include applying locking sealer to bolt threads (B) and A.T.F. to seals. Useful for anyone rebuilding this automatic transaxle.
