My torque converter snout measures 1.8.06 that inside diameter of my crankshaft measures 1.8 14 when I put the converter up in the crankshaft just to check it out it has a little bit of up and down play is that going to eat the bushing out of my transmission because most snouts on a converter usually measure one point 810 any advice would be greatly appreciated

Anything over .005 should be corrected.

Mine is probably .008 but I have no way to correct it

You could get it welded then machined to the correct diameter.

Install the flex plate to converter bolts and see how much movement you have.
Obviously leave the bolts loose when checking.

All Mopar RWD converters are supposed to be bottomed out in the back of the crank.
