ACCUMULATOR PISTONS AND SPRINGS
ACCUMULATOR PISTON AND SPRING
REMOVAL
(1) Remove valve body. Refer to procedure in this
section.(2) Remove accumulator pistons with compressed
air (Fig. 27). Apply air through small feed hole next
to each piston bore. Catch each piston in a shop
towel as it exits bore.
CAUTION: Use only enough air pressure to ease
each piston out of the bore. In addition, remove the
pistons one at a time and tag the pistons and
springs for assembly reference. Do not intermix
them.
(3) Remove and discard piston O-ring seals. Then
clean pistons and springs with solvent.

(55) Remove planetary and brake drum thrust
bearing and race assembly (Fig. 46).
(56) Remove second brake drum gasket from case
with gasket scraper or screwdriver (Fig. 47). Retain
tube shaped gasket if condition is OK.
(57) Measure inside diameter of transmission case
rear bushing with bore gauge or inside micrometer
(Fig. 48). Maximum allowable diameter is 38.18 mm
(1.5031 in.).Replace transmission case if bush-
ing I.D. is greater than specified. Bushing is not
serviceable.
CLEANING AND INSPECTION
Clean the transmission components with solvent
and dry them with compressed air only. Do not use
shop towels or rags.
Blow compressed air through all oil feed passages
and channels to be sure they are clear. Inspect the
transmission components for wear and damage. Re-
place components that are damaged or worn beyond
the limits specified in the individual overhaul proce-
dures.
Replace all O-rings, gaskets and seals. These com-
ponents are not reusable. Also replace any snap ring
that is distorted or damaged.
During overhaul assembly operations, lubricate the
transmission components with Jeep or Mopar Mer-
conŸ automatic transmission fluid or petroleum jelly
as indicated. Petroleum jelly should be used to prelu-
bricate thrust bearings, washers and races. It can
also be used to hold parts in position during assem-
bly.
Soak replacement clutch and brake pack com-
ponents in transmission fluid for at least 30
minutes before installation.Fig. 46 Removing Planetary And Brake Drum Thrust

(20) Inspect clutch piston check ball (Fig. 12). Ball
should move freely within piston. Check ball seating
by applying low pressure compressed air to ball feed
hole. Ball should seat firmly and not leak air.
(21) Measure inside diameter of bushing in clutch
drum hub. Maximum allowable diameter is 24.08
mm (0.9480 in.). Replace clutch drum if bushing in-
side diameter is greater than specified.
FORWARD CLUTCH ASSEMBLY
(1) Lubricate bearing and race assembly with pe-
troleum jelly and install it in clutch drum (Fig. 13).Race side of assembly faces downward and toward
drum. Bearing rollers face up (Fig. 13)
(2) Coat new clutch drum shaft seal rings with pe-
troleum jelly. Before installing drum shaft seal rings,
squeeze each ring so ring ends overlap (Fig. 14). This
tightens ring making clutch installation easier.
(3) Install seal rings on shaft. Keep rings closed as
tightly as possible during installation. Avoid over-
spreading them.
(4) Mount clutch drum on overdrive support.
(5) Lubricate and install new O-ring on clutch
drum hub (Fig. 7).

use shop towels or rags. Lint or foreign material from
towels or rags can interfere with valve operation.
(13) Inspect condition of lower body components.
Replace lower body if any bores are scored or cor-
roded. Replace valves, plugs or sleeves that are
scored or worn. Replace oil strainers if cut, torn or
damaged in any way.
(14) Inspect valve body springs. Replace any spring
having rusted, distorted, or collapsed coils. Measure
length of each valve body spring. Replace any spring
if free length is less than length specified in following
chart (Fig. 11).
LOWER BODY ASSEMBLY
(1) Lubricate lower body components with auto-
matic transmission fluid.
(2) Install spring and accumulator control valve in
sleeve (Fig. 11). Then install assembled components
in lower body (Fig. 9).(3) Press accumulator control valve assembly into
valve bore and install retainer (Fig. 9).
(4) Install pressure reducing plug in plug bore.
Then secure plug with retaining clip (Fig. 8).
(5) Install washer on primary regulator valve
plunger (Fig. 12).
(6) Install primary regulator valve plunger in valve
sleeve (Fig. 7).
(7) Install valve spring and regulator valve sleeve
and plunger.
(8) Press regulator valve sleeve into bore and in-
stall retainer (Fig. 5 and 6). Be sure retainer is posi-
tioned in sleeve lugs as shown.
(9) Install 1-2 shift valve, spring and plug (Fig. 4).
Then press valve assembly into bore and install re-
tainer.
(10) Install replacement O-rings on solenoids and
install solenoids on valve body. Tighten solenoid at-
taching bolts to 10 Nzm (7 ft-lbs) torque.
(11) Install oil strainers (Fig. 13).Identify strain-
ers before installation. The three strainers are
all the same diameter but are different lengths.
Two strainers are 11.0 mm (0.443 in.) long while
one strainer is 19.5 mm (0.76 in.) long (Fig. 14).
(12) Install check valve and spring (Fig. 13).
(13) Install check ball and seat (Fig. 13).
(14) Install pressure relief valve and spring (Fig.
13).
