AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (4 A/T) 7B-87
INSPECTION
Clutch and Brake Discs
Dry and inspect them for pitting, burn flaking, wear, glazing,
cracking, charring and chips or metal particles imbedded in lining.
If discs show any of the above conditions, replacement is
required.
Clutch and Brake Plates and Flanges
Dry plates and check for discoloration. If plate surface is smooth
and even color smear is indicated, the plate should be reused. If
severe heat spot discoloration or surface scuffing is indicated, the
plate must be replaced.
1st & 2nd Brake Piston Return Spring Subassembly
Measure height of 1st & 2nd brake piston return spring.
Height of 1st & 2nd brake piston return spring
20.81 mm (0.819 in.)
Evidence of extreme heat or burning in the area of clutch may
have caused springs to take a heat set and would require their
replacement.NOTE:
If disc lining is exfoliated or discolored, replace all
discs.
Before assembling new discs, soak them in A/T fluid
for at least two hours.
NOTE:
Do not apply excessive force when measuring spring
height.
Perform measurement at several points.

DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY OF SUBASSEMBLY
OIL PUMP
CAUTION:
Keep component parts in group for each subassembly and avoid mixing them up.
Clean all parts with cleaning solvent thoroughly and air dry them.
Use kerosene or automatic transmission fluid as cleaning solvent.
Do not use wiping cloths or rags to clean or dry parts.
All oil passages should be blown out and checked to make sure that they are not obstructed.
Keep face and eyes away from solvent spray while air blowing parts.
Check mating surface for irregularities and remove them, if any, and clean it again.
Soak new clutch discs and brake discs in transmission fluid for at least 2 hours before assembly.
Replace all gaskets and O-rings with new ones.
Apply automatic transmission fluid to all O-rings.
When installing seal ring, be careful so that it is not expanded excessively, extruded or caught.
Replace oil seals that are removed and apply grease to their lips.
Before installing, be sure to apply automatic transmission fluid to sliding, rolling and thrusting sur-
face of all component part. Also after installation, make sure to check each part for proper opera-
tion.
Always use torque wrench when tightening bolts.

REAR COVER (O/D BRAKE PISTON ASSEMBLY)
DISASSEMBLY
1) Remove O/D brake piston (1) from rear cover (2).
2) Remove O-ring (3) and seal ring (4).
Replace them, if damaged.
ASSEMBLY
1) Install seal rings to rear cover and O-rings to O/D brake pis-
ton.

PLANETARY SUN GEAR NO.1 ASSEMBLY
DISASSEMBLY
1) Remove one-way clutch retainer (1) from planetary sun gear
No.1 assembly.
2) Remove one-way clutch bearings (2), one-way clutch (3),
inner race (4) and washer (5) from planetary sun gear No.1
(6).
ASSEMBLY
Reverse removal procedure noting followings.
When installing retainer, fit 2 hooks of retainer on planetary
sun gear No.1 and tap the other 2 hooks with plastic ham-
mer.
After assembling, make sure that :
There is no clearance between retainer and bearing. NOTE:
If O/D brake piston is hard to take it out, force low-pres-
sure compressed air (1 kg/cm
2, 15 psi, 100 kPa max) into
hole (5) shown in figure and pop out piston into a rag.
NOTE:
Do not reuse retainer.

UNIT ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Automatic transmission consists of highly precise parts. As even a flaw in a small part may cause
oil leakage or decrease in function, check each part carefully before installation.
Clean all parts with compressed air. Never use wiping cloths or rags.
Before assembling new clutch discs and brake band, soak them in automatic transmission fluid for
at least 2 hours.
Be sure to use new gaskets and O-rings.
Lubricate O-rings with automatic transmission fluid.
Apply automatic transmission fluid on sliding or rotating surfaces of the parts before assembly.
Use yellow petrolatum grease or Suzuki Super Grease C to retain parts in place.
Be sure to install thrust bearings and races in correct direction and position.
Make sure that snap ring ends are not aligned with one of cutouts and are installed in groove cor-
rectly.
Do not use adhesive cements on gaskets and similar parts.
Be sure to torque each bolt and nut to specification.
