Using the special tools, install the reverse clutch return spring snap ring.





7. NOTE: The use of petroleum jelly will hold the No. 17 thrust bearing or washer in place during assembly.

For vehicles equipped with a slip yoke, install the No. 17 park gear thrust bearing. For vehicles equipped with a fixed yoke, install the No. 17 park gear thrust washer.





8. WARNING: Be careful when installing the output shaft not to damage the seals or a transmission leak could occur.

Install the output shaft.

26. Install the reverse clutch plates.
^ Install the separator plate, alternating between the steel and friction plates. Install a steel plate then a friction plate, then install the One Way Clutch (OWC).
^ If the OWC is installed correctly, it should hold when trying to turn it counterclockwise and turn freely when turning it clockwise. The OWC is model dependent by the engine type.





27. NOTE: While installing the snap ring, note the location of the opening. The opening of the snap ring should be between two teeth on the case.

Install a new snap ring.





28. While pulling up on the one-way clutch, use a feeler gauge to measure the clearance between the one-way clutch and the friction plate.
