REPAIR OPERATIONS
DISASSEMBLY OF
TRANSMISSION
I. Before
removing
any
of the
transmission ~sub-assemblies, thor-
oughly clean the outside of the trans-
mission case to prevent dirt from get-
ting inside the mechanism.
2. After the transmission has been
removed from the vehicle, place the
assembly in the transmission holder
shown in Fig. 40.
3. Remove the transmission pan,
gasket, and filter retainer clip.
4. Lift the filter from the case.
5. Remove the spring scat from the
pressure
regulator.
Maintain constant
pressure on the seal to prevent distor-
tion of the spring seat and the sudden
release of the springs. Remove the
pressure regulator springs and pilots,
but do not remove the valves.
6. Remove the small compensator
pressure tube from the pressure regu-
lator and the control valve
body.
Remove the main pressure oil
tube by gently prying up the end that
connects to the main control valve as-
sembly first. Then, remove the other
end of the tube from the pressure re-
gulator.
Be
sure to remove the tube in
this manner. Failure to do so, could
kink or bend the tube causing exces-
sive transmission internal leakage.

band
adjusting
screws
five
turns.
Loosen the front servo attaching bolts
three turns.

unit and push rod.

valve body
attaching bolts. Align the levers to
permit removal of the valve body.
Then lift the valve body clear of the
transmission case
.

the servo tubes and remove it from the
FIG.40

case. Keep the control pressure valve
and the converter
pressure
regulator
valve in the pressure regulator to
avoid damage to the valves.

and release tubes by twisting and pull-
ing at the same time. Remove the
front servo attaching bolts. Hold the
front servo strut with the fingers, and
lift the servo from the case.
12. Remove the rear servo attach-
ing bolts. Hold the actuating and an-
chor struts with the fingers, and lift
the servo from the
case.

PLAY CHECK
I. Remove
one
of the front pump
attaching bolts. Mount the dial indica-

on
the end of the turbine shaft.
2. Install the extension housing seal
replacer
on
the output shaft to provide
support for the shaft.
3. Pry the front clutch
cylinder
to
the rear of the transmission with a
large screwdriver. Set the dial indica-
tor at zero while maintaining a slight
pressure on the screwdriver.
4. Remove the screwdriver and pry
the units toward the front of the
transmission by inserting the screw-
driver between the large internal gear
and the transmission case.
5. Record the indicator reading for
use during transmission assembly. End
play should be 0.010-0.029
inch
(mini-
mum end play
is
preferred). If end
play is not within specifications a new
selective thrust washer must be used
when the transmission is assembled.
