1. Install the magnet and the differential assembly.
2. Install the primary shaft gear assembly and the
secondary shaft gear assembly together.
3. Shift to 2nd gear and position the shift fork and shift
rod assembly as shown.
Insert the spring seat and spring into the reverse
lever shaft, install the steel ball, and place a scraper
knife so that it contacts the steel ball.
With the edge of the control end against the knife,
when the control end is pushed in the direction of
the arrow in the figure so that the ball goes into
the shaft, the rod will at the same time line up with
the shift rod coupling hole in the clutch housing.
6. Set each clutch hub sleeve to the neutral position,
and tap the shift rod from above so that the steel
ball goes into the center groove (of the 3 grooves
in the control end).
7. Pull the ball part of the control end forward so that
the steel ball goes into the detent in the groove.

driveshaft to the joint shaft.
(4) Push the joint at the differential side to secure-
ly connect the driveshaft to the joint shaft.
Note
a) After installation, pull the front hub outward
to confirm that the driveshaft doesn't come
out.

76G07B-035
Noise and vibration
Drive the vehicle in OD (lock-up), OD (no lock-up), 3rd (Hold) and check for abnormal noise or vibration.
Note
Abnormal noise and vibration can also be caused by the torque converter, drive shaft, or
differential. Therefore, checking of cause must be made with extreme care.
Kick-down
Drive the vehicle in OD, 3rd and 2nd gears and check that kick-down occurs for OD->3, OD->2, OD->1,
3->2, 3-+1, 2-> 1, and the shift points are as shown in the shift diagram.
S Range Test
Shift pattern
1. Shift the selector lever to S range and select the Economy mode.
2. Accelerate the vehicle and check that 1-2 and 2-3 up-shifts and down-shifts are obtained, and that
no overdrive and no lock-up are obtained.
Note
a) Inspections of shift shock and shift point are not necessary because these are the same
as those of the D Range Test.
b)ln S range, the shift patterns for Economy and Power modes are the same.
c) Shift points are the same as those of the D range (Power) shift diagram.
3. While driving in S range (Economy mode) and 3rd gear, select the Hold mode and check that 3rd
gear is held until the 3-2 down-shift point as shown in the S range (Hold) shift diagram is achieved.
4. Accelerate the vehicle with S range (Hold mode) and check that 2nd gear is held.

76G07B-036
Noise and vibration
Drive the vehicle in 2nd gear (Hold mode) and check for abnormal noise or vibration.
Note
Abnormal noise and vibration can also be caused by the torque converter, drive shaft or
differential. Therefore, checking of cause must be made with extreme care.
L Range Test
Shift pattern
1. Shift the selector lever to L range and select the mode.
2. Accelerate the vehicle and check that the 1-2 up- and down-shiftings are obtained and that no 3rd
gear, no OD, and no lock-up are obtained.
Note
Inspection of shift shock and shift point are not necessary because these are the same
as those of the D Range Test.
3. Drive in 1st gear then decelerate and check that engine braking effect is felt.
Note
a) In L range, the shift patterns for Economy and Power modes are the same.
b) Shift points are the same as those of the D range (Power) shift diagram.
4. While driving in S range (Hold mode) and 2nd gear, shift the selector lever to L range and check
that 2nd gear is held until the 2-1 down-shift point as shown in the L range (Hold) shift diagram
is achieved.
5. Accelerate the vehicle in L range (Hold mode) and check that 1st gear is held.
