Does my 2008 LS not have one? My mechanic friend was shocked when we pulled out tranny to swap with used Tranny.

Thanks

 

I've never seen such a thing. Doesn't make sense since the torque converter is bolted to the flex plate which turns exactly in time with the crankshaft.

 

A pilot bearing is what your clutch fork pushes against to disengage the clutch. Unless your looking at a manual transmission or maybe a DCT or even a sequential transmission you probably still have a pilot bearing but on a torque converter automatic, nothing resembling a pilot bearing is going to be found

 

Doesn't exist except in manual cars.
