A coupling device ( 11 ) and method of assembly, the device being of the type including a plenum member ( 17 ) disposed at one axial end of the coupling housing ( 13,15 ), the method comprising configuring the plenum member ( 17 ) such that each of the required features ( 55,57,61,66 ) is disposed circumferentially between an adjacent pair of fastener holes ( 18 H). Next, the input ring gear (R) is installed about the housing ( 13,15 ) of the coupling device ( 11 ), from an axial end opposite said plenum member ( 17 ), into assembly position adjacent said flange portion ( 18 ). Each of a plurality (N) of fasteners ( 89 ) is inserted through one of the fastener holes ( 18 H) and into initial threaded engagement with the input ring gear (R). Finally, by means of a fastener driver, all of the plurality (N) of fasteners ( 89 ) are driven into full threaded engagement, substantially simultaneously, with the input ring gear (R).
