TRANSMISSION K It- CLEARANCE Inspection Front planetary pinion carrier 1. Measure the clearance between the pinion washer and the planetary pinion carrier. Clearance Standard : 0.2--0.7mm (0.008-0.027 in} Maximum : 0.8mm (0.031 in) 2. If not within specification, replace the planetary pinion carrier. Assembly procedure 1. Apply ATF to the rear clutch hub and internal gear, and assemble them with the snap ring. 2. Apple petroleum jelly to the bearing, and install it onto the rear clutch hub with the black surface facing upward. Bearing outer diameter: 70.0mm (2.756 in) 3. Apple petroleum jelly to the bearing, and install it onto the rear clutch hub with the black surface facing upward. Bearing outer diameter: 53.0mm (2.087 in} 4. Apply ATF to the front planetary pinion carrier, and install it into the internal gear. Gartner Banana

K TRANSMISSION 5. Apply ATF to the sun gear, and install it into the front planetary pinion carrier with the groove facing the front (arrow). 6. Apply ATF to the sun gear, and install it into the front planetary pinion carrier. REAR PLANETARY GEAR UNIT (CONNECTING DRUM, REAR PLANETARY PINION CARRIER, ONE-WAY CLUTCH) Preinspection One-way clutch operation Install the rear planetary gear unit and verify that the rear , planetary gear unit rotates smoothly when turned clock- wise and locked when turned counterclockwise. If not, replace the one-way clutch. Gartner Banana

K TRANSMISSION CLEARANCE Inspection Rear planetary pinion carrier 1. Measure the clearance between the pinion washer and the planetary pinion carrier. d Clearance Standard : 0.2--0.7mm (0.008-4.027 in) Maximum : 0.8mm (0.031 in) 2. If not within specification, replace the planetary pinion carrier. Assembly procedure 1. Install the snap ring into the connecting drum. 2. Apple ATF to the one-way clutch. Install it into the con- necting drum, with the arrow pointing toward the front. 3. Apply ATF to the drive flange and internal gear, and install it into the internal gear. 4. Install the snap ring. 5. Apple petroleum jelly to the bearing, and install it onto the drive flange. Bearing outer diameter: 47.0mm (1.850 in) 6. Install the internal gear and the drive flange into the con- necting drum. 7. Apple petroleum jelly to the bearing, and install it onto the drive flange with the black surface facing upward. Bearing outer diameter: 70.0mm (2.756 in) Gartner Banana

TRANSMISSION K 8. Apply ATF to the rear planetary pinion carrier, and install it into the connecting drum. 9. Install the snap ring. 10. Apple petroleum jelly to the bearing, and install it onto the rear planetary pinion carrier with the black surface facing upward. Bearing outer diameter: 70.0mm (2.756 in} 11. Insert the rear planetary gear unit into the transmission case, and verify that the one-way clutch turns counter- clockwise. If it does not, then the one-way clutch is installed upside down.

K TRANSMISSION LOW AND REVERSE BRAKE Preparation SST Preinspection Low and reverse brake operation 1. Apply compressed air through the oil passage as shown. 49 0378 346 Hex head wrench Air pressure: 392 kPa (4.0 kglcm2, 57 psi) max. For removal I installation of one-way clutch 2. Verify that the retaining plate moves toward the snap ring. If not, the seal ring or O-ring may be damaged or fluid may be leaking at the piston check ball. Inspect them, and replace as necessary when assembling. Clearance between retaining plate and snap ring 1. Measure the clearance between the retaining plate and the snap ring. Clearance: 0.8-1.05mm (0.032--0.041 in) i/ 2. Select and install the correct retaining plate when as- sembling. Gartner Banana
