REASSEMBLY OF TRANSMISSION
General Instructions
1. Before starting to assemble the transmission, make
certain that all parts are absolutely clean
.
Keep hands
and tools clean to avoid getting dirt into assembly. If work
is stopped before assembly is completed, cover all openings
with clean cloths.
2. When reassembling, it is important that all thrust
washer surfaces be given an intial lubrication. Bushings
should be lubricated with transmission fluid. Thrust washers
should be lubricated on both surfaces with petroleum jelly
(unmedicated) before installation.
3. Do not take a chance on used gaskets and
seals
-
use new ones to avoid oil leaks.
4. Use care to avoid making nicks or burrs on parts,
particularly on surfaces where gaskets are used.
5. It is extremely important to tighten all parts evenly
and in proper sequence, to avoid distortion of parts and
leakage at gaskets and other joints.
Use a reliable torque wrench to tighten all bolts
and nuts to specified torque and in the specified
sequence.
Installation of Low and Reverse Clutch Piston
1. Install low and reverse clutch piston outer seal (Fig.
Fig. 7A3-102 Installing Low and Reverse Clutch Piston
Outer Seal
2. Install low and reverse clutch piston center and inner
seal (Fig. 7A3- 103).
3. Install low and reverse clutch piston assembly with
notch in piston installed adjacent to parking pawl (Fig. 7A3-
104).
4. Position piston return seat and springs. Place snap
ring on return seat so that ring may be easily installed when
seat is compressed with Tool J 2 1420.
5. Using tool J 2 1420- 1, compress return seat so spring
retainer retaining ring may be installed with snap ring pliers
(Fig. 7A3-105).
NOTE: As spring retainer is compressed, make certain
inner edge of retainer does not hang up on snap ring
groove.
Installing Output Shaft and Reaction Carrier
1. Install output ring gear to output shaft and output ring
gear to output shaft ring (Fig. 7A3-106).
