OVERHAUL SERVICE INFORMATION
Inspect the transmission bushings during overhaul.
Bushing condition is important as severely worn, or
scored bushings contribute to low pressures, clutch
slip and accelerated wear of other components.How-
ever, do not replace bushings as a matter of
course. Replace bushings only when they are
actually worn, or scored.
Use recommended tools to replace bushings. The
tools are sized and designed to remove, install and
seat bushings correctly. The bushing replacement
tools are included in Bushing Tool Set C-3887-B. The
tool set is manufactured by Miller Tool Co. and is
available through the dealer tool program.
Pre-sized service bushings are available for replace-
ment purposes. Only the sun gear bushings are not
serviced. Low cost of the sun gear assembly makes it
easier to simply replace the gear and bushings as an
assembly.
Heli-Coil inserts are recommended for repairing
damaged, stripped or worn threads in aluminum
parts. These inserts are available from most automo-
tive jobbers. Stainless steel inserts are preferred.
The use of crocus cloth is permissible where neces-
sary. When used on valves, use care to avoid round-
ing off sharp edges. Sharp edges are vital as they
prevent foreign matter from getting between the
valve and valve bore.
Do not reuse oil seals, gaskets, seal rings, or O-
rings during overhaul. Replace these parts as a mat-
ter of course. Also do not reuse snap rings or E-clips
that are bent or distorted. Replace these parts as
well.
Lubricate transmission parts with Mopar ATF
Plus, Type 7176 transmission fluid during overhaul
and assembly.Use petroleum jelly to hold parts like thrust wash-
ers in place during assembly. Use Ru-Glyde, Door
Eze, or similar products to lubricate piston seals and
O-rings to ease installation. Petroleum jelly can also
be used to prelubricate parts during reassembly if de-
sired.
TRANSMISSION CASE CLEANING AND
INSPECTION
Clean the case in a solvent tank. Flush the case
bores and fluid passages thoroughly with solvent.
Dry the case and all fluid passages with compressed
air. Be sure all solvent is removed from the case and
that all fluid passages are clear.
Do not use shop towels or rags to dry the case
(or any other transmission component) unless
they are made from lint-free materials. Lint will
readily adhere to case surfaces and transmission
components and will circulate throughout the
transmission after assembly. A sufficient quan-
tity of lint can block fluid passages and interfere
with valve body operation.
Inspect the case for cracks, porous spots, worn
bores, or damaged threads. Damaged threads can be
repaired with Helicoil thread inserts. However, the
case will have to be replaced if it exhibits any type of
damage or wear.
Lubricate the front band adjusting screw threads
with petroleum jelly and thread the screw part-way
into the case. Be sure the screw turns freely.
Remount the case in a repair stand after cleaning
and inspection.
OVERRUNNING CLUTCHÐLOW-REVERSE
DRUMÐREAR SUPPORT OVERHAUL
DISASSEMBLING OVERRUNNING CLUTCH/
LOW-REVERSE DRUM
If the clutch assembly came out with the low-re-
verse drum, thread two clutch cam bolts into the
cam. Then lift the cam out of the drum with the bolts
(Fig. 30). Rotate the cam back and forth to ease re-
moval if necessary. Remove the clutch roller and
spring assembly from the race afterward.
CLEANING AND INSPECTION
Clean the overrunning clutch assembly, clutch
cam, low-reverse drum and rear support in solvent.
Dry them with compressed air after cleaning.
Inspect condition of each clutch part after cleaning.
Replace the overrunning clutch roller and spring as-
sembly if any rollers or springs are worn or dam-
aged, or if the roller cage is distorted, or damaged.
Replace the cam if worn, cracked or damaged.
Replace the low-reverse drum if the clutch race,
roller surface or inside diameter is scored, worn or
damaged.Do not remove the clutch race from the

low-reverse drum under any circumstances. Re-
place the drum and race as an assembly if either
component is damaged.
Examine the rear support carefully for wear,
cracks, scoring or other damage. Be sure the support
hub is a snug fit in the case and drum. Replace the
support if worn or damaged.
ASSEMBLING OVERRUNNING CLUTCH/LOW-
REVERSE DRUM
(1) Assemble clutch rollers and springs in retainer
if necessary (Fig. 31).
(2) Install overrunning clutch roller, spring and re-
tainer assembly in clutch cam (Fig. 32).
(3) Temporarily assemble and check overrunning
clutch operation as follows:
(a) Assemble cam and clutch.
(b) Install clutch assembly on low-reverse drum
with twisting motion (Fig. 33).(c) Install drum-clutch assembly in case and in-
stall clutch cam bolts.
(d) Install rear support and support attaching
bolts.
(e) Check low-reverse drum rotation.Drum
should rotate freely in clockwise direction and
lock when turned in counterclockwise direc-
tion (as viewed from front of case).
(4) Note component position for assembly refer-
ence. Bolt holes in clutch cam are countersunk on
one side, Be sure this side of cam will face rearward
when installed (Fig. 34).
(5) Remove rear support, overrunning clutch and
low-reverse drum. Set components aside for final as-
sembly.If overrunning clutch will be installed

before final assembly, install cam only as de-
scribed in Transmission Assembly And Adjust-
ment section. Clutch cam must be properly
indexed in case to fit and operate properly.
ADAPTER HOUSING AND PARK LOCK
COMPONENT OVERHAUL
Clean the housing and park lock components in
solvent and dry them with compressed air.
Inspect the output shaft bearing in the housing
(Fig. 35). Replace the bearing if worn, damaged, or
noisy.
Examine the park lock components in the housing.
If replacement is necessary, remove the shaft with
parallel jaw snap ring pliers (Fig. 36) and remove the
sprag and spring. Then remove the spring clip and
reaction plug (Fig. 37).Compress the reaction plug spring clip only
enough to remove or install it. The clip is easily
distorted if overcompressed. Replace the clip if
it becomes bent or distorted. Do not straighten
and reuse the clip if this occurs.
Be sure a replacement sprag is installed so the
sprag locking lug will face the park gear. Also be
sure the spring is correctly positioned as shown (Fig.
38).The sprag may not retract if the spring is
improperly installed.
