Abstract
A torque converter is provided including a turbine with a turbine hub. A cover plate is fixed to the turbine hub. A damper assembly including a damper flange with an axially extending sleeve portion having a splined or toothed inner surface that is adapted to engage a transmission input shaft is provided. A spring is located between the cover plate and the damper flange for transferring torque from the turbine hub to the transmission input shaft via the damper flange. The turbine hub includes axially protruding tabs that contact an outer surface of the sleeve portion to center the turbine hub on the sleeve portion. The turbine hub also includes a radially inwardly extending portion that at least partially overlaps an axial end of the sleeve portion.
