Assembly

ASSEMBLY

NOTE: Apply trans jell or petroleum jelly to all slide portions, rolling contacts surfaces, thrust surfaces etc. to prevent burnout during initial operation. Lubricate O-rings and O-ring seals with MOPAR(R) AS68RC ATF. Soak all friction discs in MOPAR(R) AS68RC ATF for at least two hours before assembly of clutch packs.




K1 CLUTCH EXPLODED VIEW










1. Lubricate K1 clutch piston seals with MOPAR(R) AS68RC ATF and install the piston into the K1 clutch retainer / input shaft assembly.




2. Install the K1 clutch piston return spring into the K1 clutch retainer / input shaft assembly.




3. Lubricate the seals on the K1 clutch balance piston with MOPAR(R) AS68RC ATF and install it into the K1 clutch retainer / input shaft assembly.




4. Using an arbor press (1) and Compressor tool 5059 (2), compress the K1 clutch piston assembly and install the snap ring (3) using snap ring pliers.




5. Install the K1 clutch pack.




6. Install the K1 clutch snap ring.

Clutch Clearance And Piston Travel Combinations (Part 1):

Clutch Clearance And Piston Travel Combinations (Part 2):

NOTE: It may be necessary to reposition the balance piston snap ring to fully access the balance piston void.

NOTE: If the K1 piston assembly stroke is not within tolerance check the K1 piston seals and the hydraulic fluid circuit path.

7. Install the dial indicator set C-3339-A (2).
8. Position the dial indicator tip (2) into the balance piston void (4), between the balance piston (1) and the input shaft hub (3), being certain the tip contacts the piston, and apply 400 - 500 kPa.( 52 - 78 psi.) of air to the upper most circuit path of the input shaft, to check the K1 clutch piston stroke clearance.

The K1 clutch piston stroke clearance is 1.49 - 1.74 mm (0.058 - 0.069 in.).











NOTE: The selectable clutch pack reaction plates are identified by an alpha numeric numeral stamped into the face of the plate.

9. Install the Dial Indicator Set C-3339-A and apply 400 - 500 kPa ( 52 - 78 psi) of air to the upper most circuit path of the input shaft, to check the K1 clutch pack clearance.

The K1 clutch pack clearance is 1.25 - 1.50 mm (0.049 - 0.059 in.). If the clearance is not within tolerance, choose the correct selectable reaction plate.

- A = 2.95 mm (0.116 in.)
- B = 3.10 mm (0.122 in.)
- C = 3.25 mm (0.128 in.)
- D = 3.40 mm (0.134 in.)
- E = 3.55 mm (0.139 in.)
