INSTALLATION
Refer to Figs. 25 and 26, for gear cluster, shift rail installation and engaging transaxle in gear shaft supports components.
TOOLS REQUIRED
In addition to a hydraulic press, tools J-35824, J-36031 and J-36182 are required to conduct the following procedure.
1. Position gear cluster/shift rail assembly (A) onto tool J-36182-1. Align shift rail and shaft pilots onto fixture,
2. Align bearing bores in case with shaft pilots, then install transaxle case (85).
3. Install new bearing (86) using tool J-35824 and press.
4. Install new bearing (93) using tool J-35824 and press. Ensure bearings
(86 and 93) are completely seated. Push rails (A and B) to engage and secure transaxle in 4th and reverse gears.
5. Install new retainer (88) using J-36031 or equivalent. Torque retainer attaching screws to 50 ft lbs.
6. Place transaxle back into Neutral.
