Clutch-Coast

Clutch-Coast





The coast clutch is a multi-disc clutch made up of steel and friction plates.
- The coast clutch is applied with hydraulic pressure and disengaged by return springs and the exhaust of the hydraulic pressure.
- The coast clutch is housed in the front brake and coast clutch drum.
- The coast clutch is applied when the TCS switch is on, energizing SSD, and 5th gear operation is inhibited (4th gear only).
- The coast clutch is hydraulically applied when the transmission is in the manual 2nd and manual 1st position.
- When applied, the coast clutch locks the input shaft to the front planetary carrier, thus preventing the one-way clutch from overrunning when the vehicle is coasting.
- This allows the use of engine compression to help slow the vehicle and provide engine braking.





One-Way Clutch-Front
The front one-way clutch is a spray-type one-way clutch that is pressed into the center shaft.
- The front one-way clutch is driven by the ring gear of the front planetary carrier.
- The front one-way clutch holds and drives the outer splines of the center shaft in 1st, 3rd, and 4th gears.
- The front one-way clutch overruns during all coast operations and at all times in 2nd and 5th gear.





One-Way Clutch-Low/Reverse
The low/reverse one-way clutch is a spray-type one-way clutch.
- The low/reverse one-way clutch holds the low/reverse brake drum and low/reverse planetary assembly to the case in 1st gear only.
- In all other gears the low/reverse one-way clutch overruns.
