Assembly (Part 2)

Fig. 130 Install 2/4 Clutch Retainer Snap Ring:





50) Using Compressing Tool 5058-A (1) (Fig. 130), compress 2/4 clutch return spring just enough to install snap ring (3).
51) Install snap ring.

Fig. 131 Check 2/4 Clutch Clearance:





52) Set up dial indicator (1) (Fig. 131) and measure 2/4 clutch clearance. Press down on clutch pack with finger and zero dial indicator. 2/4 clutch pack clearance is 0.76 - 2.64 mm (0.030 - 0.104 inch). Set up indicator and record measurement in four (4)places. Take average of readings. If clearance is outside this range, the clutch is assembled improperly. There is no adjustment for 2/4 clutch clearance.

Fig. 132 Number 7 Bearing:





NOTE: The number seven needle (1) (Fig. 132) bearing has three anti-reversal tabs and is common with the number five and number two position. The orientation should allow the bearing to seat flat against the rear sun gear. A small amount of petrolatum can be used to hold the bearing to the rear sun gear (2).

Fig. 133 Install Rear Sun Gear and #7 NeedleBearing:





53) Install rear sun gear (2) (Fig. 133) and #7 needle bearing (1).

Fig. 134 Install Front Carrier and Rear AnnulusAssembly:





54) Install front carrier/rear annulus assembly (2) (Fig. 134) and #6 needle bearing (1).

Fig. 135 Install Front Sun Gear Assembly:





55) Install front sun gear assembly (1) (Fig. 135) and #4 thrust washer (2).

Fig. 136 Select Thinnest No. 4 Thrust Plate:





56) Select the thinnest #4 thrust plate thickness (2) (Fig. 136) and install to input clutch assembly Use petrolatum to retain (3).

Fig. 137 View Through Input Speed Sensor Hole:





57) Install input clutch assembly into position and verify that it is completely seated by viewing through input speed sensor hole (2) (Fig. 137). If view through input speed sensor hole is not as shown in the below view, the input clutch assembly is not seated properly.

Fig. 138 Remove Oil Pump O-Ring:





58) Remove oil pump O-ring (2) (Fig. 138). Be sure to reinstall oil pump O-ring after selecting the proper #4 thrust plate.
59) Install pump and gasket to transmission. Install and torque bolts.

Fig. 139 Measure Input Shaft End Play Using EndPlay Set 8266:





60) Set up input shaft for measurement with Indicator Set C3339 (2) and End Play Set 8266 (1) (Fig. 139).
61) Measure the input shaft end play with the transaxle in the vertical position. Input shaft end play must be within 0.005 to 0.025 inch. For example, if end play reading is 0.055 inch, select No. 4 Thrust Plate which is 0.071 to 0.074 thick. This should provide an input shaft end play reading of 0.020 inch which is within specifications.
62) Refer to the No. 4 thrust plate chart NO. 4 THRUST PLATE CHART to select the proper No. 4 thrust plate.

NO. 4 THRUST PLATE CHART:
