As the aluminum case is sealed with liquid type gas-
ket, it is necessary to use genuine sealant or its equiv-
alent on its mating surfaces when reassembling it.
Also, the case fastening bolts must be tightened to
specified torque by means of the torque wrench and
tightening over or below the specified torque should
be avoided.
The description under ON-VEHICLE SERVICE in this
section covers a part of the TYPE 2 manual transmis-
sion and the transfer. The transfer is next to the trans-
mission as well, but their gear boxes are independent
and each of them has its own drain and level / filler
plugs for the oil change or the level check.
For the repair procedure of the transfer unit, refer to
Section 7D.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION
(TYPE 1)
CONTENTS
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The manual transmission consists of the input shaft,
main shaft, countershaft and reverse gear which are
installed in the aluminum case. Its gears are of for-
ward five speeds in synchro mesh and reverse one
speed in constant mesh system.
The main shaft gears are held by the needle bearings
and on them the synchronizer rings and synchronizer
sleeve & hubs are assembled.
The gear shift lever case is located at the upper be-
hind the transmission case and has a cam which pre-
vents direct gear shift from the 5th speed gear to the
reverse gear.

The manual transmission consists of the input shaft,
main shaft, counter shaft and reverse gear which are
installed in the aluminum and castings cases. Its
gears are of forward five speeds in synchro mesh and
reverse one speed in sliding idler gear arrangement
system.
The main shaft gears are held by the needle bear-
ings and on them the synchronizer rings and syn-
chronizer sleeve & hubs are assembled.
The gear shift lever case is located at the upper be-
hind the transmission case and has a cam which pre-
vents direct gear shift from the 5th speed gear to the
reverse gear.As the aluminum and castings cases are sealed with
liquid type gasket, it is necessary to use genuine seal-
ant or its equivalent on its mating surfaces when reas-
sembling them. Also, the case fastening bolts must be
tightened to specified torque by means of the torque
wrench and tightening over or below the specified
torque should be avoided.

section covers the transfer partially which is next to
the transmission as well, but their gear boxes are in-
dependent and each of them has its own drain and
