(5) Support sun gear on wood block (Fig. 6). Then
remove first sun gear snap ring and separate drum
from gear.
(6) Remove remaining snap ring from sun gear
(Fig. 7).
(7) Measure inside diameter of sun gear bushings
with bore gauge or inside micrometer (Fig. 8). Maxi-
mum allowable diameter is 27.08 mm (1.0661 in.).
Replace sun gear if bushing inside diameter is
greater than specified.
SUN GEAR AND CLUTCH ASSEMBLY
(1) Install first snap ring on sun gear.
(2) Install sun gear in drum and install remaining
snap ring.(3) Coat replacement seal rings with petroleum
jelly and install them on sun gear.Be sure seal
ring ends are interlocked.
(4) Install thrust washer. Be sure washer tabs are
seated in drum slots.
(5) Install one-way clutch/second brake hub assem-
bly on sun gear. Deep side of hub flange faces up-
ward (Fig. 9).
(6) Check one-way clutch operation again (Fig. 2).

SECOND BRAKE OVERHAUL
BRAKE DISASSEMBLY
(1) Remove second brake drum from output shaft
(Fig. 2).
(2) Set output shaft assembly aside for overhaul.
Refer to Rear Planetary Gear and Output Shaft
Overhaul procedures.
(3) Remove thrust washer from second brake drum
(Fig. 3).
(4) Compress piston return springs with shop press
and tool 7538. Then remove piston snap ring (Fig. 4).
(5) Remove compressor tool and remove spring re-
tainer and return springs.
(6) Remove second brake piston and sleeve from
drum with compressed air (Fig. 5). Use only enough
air pressure to ease piston out of drum.
(7) Remove and discard brake piston O-rings.(8) Measure free length of piston return springs
with springs mounted in retainer (Fig. 6). Length
should be approximately 16.05 mm (0.632 in.). Re-
place return springs if length is less than specified.
SECOND BRAKE ASSEMBLY
(1) Lubricate and install new O-rings on brake pis-
ton. Then install brake piston in drum.
(2) Install return springs and retainer on brake
piston.

(3) Compress return springs with shop press and
Compressor Tool 7538. Install piston snap ring and
remove brake assembly from press.
(4) Check brake piston operation with low pressure
compressed air (Fig. 7). Apply air pressure through
feed hole in drum. Piston should move smoothly
when applying-releasing air pressure.
(5) Coat thrust washer with petroleum jelly and
install it in drum. Be sure washer notches are
aligned with tabs on spring retainer (Fig. 8).
(6) Set brake components aside for final assembly.

REAR PLANETARY, NO. 2 ONE-WAY CLUTCH AND
OUTPUT SHAFT OVERHAUL
PLANETARY/BRAKE PACK/OUTPUT SHAFT
DISASSEMBLY
(1) Remove output shaft from gear assembly (Fig.
2).
(2) Remove and discard shaft seal ring (Fig. 4).
(3) Remove brake pack from planetary gear (Fig.
4).
(4) Measure thickness of each brake pack disc.
Minimum thickness is 1.51 mm (0.0594 in.). Replace
all discs if any disc is thinner than specified.
(5) Remove planetary gear from ring gear (Fig. 5).
(6) Check No. 2 one-way clutch. Hold planetary
gear and turn clutch inner race in both directions.Race should turn freely counterclockwise, but lock
when turned clockwise. Replace one-way clutch if
necessary.

(7) Remove clutch inner race from planetary gear
(Fig. 7).
(8) Remove clutch snap ring and remove No. 2 one-
way clutch from planetary (Fig. 8).
(9) Remove front and rear thrust washers from
planetary gear (Fig. 9).
(10) Remove thrust bearing and washers from ring
gear (Fig. 10).
(11) Remove ring gear snap ring and remove ring
gear hub (Fig. 11).
(12) Inspect and replace any worn or damaged
planetary gear components.

ASSEMBLING REAR PLANETARY, BRAKE
PACK, CLUTCH AND SHAFT
(1) Install hub and snap ring in ring gear (Fig. 11)
(2) Identify ring gear thrust bearing and races by
following dimensions (Fig. 10):
²Outer diameter of bottom race is 44.8 mm (1.764
in.) and inner diameter is 27.6 mm (1.087 in.).
²Outer diameter of bearing is 44.7 mm (1.760 in.)
and inner diameter is 30.1 mm (1.185 in.).
²Outer diameter of upper race is 44.8 mm (1.764
in.) and inner diameter is 28.8 mm (1.134 in.).
(3) Lubricate ring gear thrust bearing and races
with petroleum jelly and install them in ring gear
(Fig. 10).
(4) Coat planetary thrust washers with petroleum
jelly and install them in gear (Fig. 9).
(5) Install No. 2 one-way clutch in planetary gear.
Be sure flanged side of clutch faces upward (Fig. 12).(6) Install clutch retaining snap ring and install
clutch inner race (Fig. 7). Turn race counterclockwise
to ease installation.
(7) Verify one-way clutch operation. Hold gear and
turn inner race in both directions. Race should turn
freely counterclockwise, but lock when turned clock-
wise.
(8) Install planetary gear in ring gear.
(9) Assemble clutch discs and clutch plates (Fig. 4).
Sequence is disc first, then a plate. Use seven discs
and plates in a 6-cyl. transmission.

FIRST-REVERSE BRAKE PISTON AND
TRANSMISSION CASE OVERHAUL
BRAKE DISASSEMBLY AND INSPECTION
(1) Remove bearing and race assembly from trans-
mission case (Fig. 2).
(2) Check first/reverse brake piston operation with
compressed air (Fig. 3). Piston should move smoothly
and not bind or stick. If piston operation is incorrect,
case or piston may require replacement.
(3) Compress piston return springs with Tool 7539
and remove piston snap ring (Fig. 4).
