0.010 in.) end-play for the reverse countershaft gear
assembly into the reverse countershaft bearing race
bore.

shaft bearing race into the extension/adapter hous-
ing.

sion/adapter housing and tighten to 28 N´m (20
ft.lbs.).
(16) Install crossover cam into the extension/
adapter housing.
(17) Install bolt to hold the crossover cam to the
extension/adapter housing (Fig. 96).
(18) Install crossover detent plunger, spring and
plug into the extension/adapter housing. Tighten the
plug to 47.5 N´m (35 ft.lbs.) (Fig. 97).
(19) Apply sealer to the surface of the transmis-
sion case.
(20) Install extension/adapter housing onto the
transmission case.
(21) Install bolts to hold the extension/adapter
housing onto the transmission gear case. Tighten
bolts to 48 N´m (35 ft.lbs.).
(22) Install shift rail blocker bolt and tighten bolt
to 55 N´m (41 ft.lbs.).
(23) Install primary shift rail detent plunger,
spring and plug into the transmission case. Tighten
detent plug to 47.5 N´m (35 ft.lbs.).

(24) Install shift tower onto the transmission case
and tighten bolts to 9 N´m (7 ft.lbs.).
INSTALLATION
NOTE: If installing a new transmission, use all com-
ponents supplied with the transmission. If a new
shift tower is supplied with the new transmission,
do not re-use the original shift tower.
(1) Apply a light coat of Mopar high temperature
bearing grease or equivalent to contact surfaces of
following components:
²input shaft splines.
²release bearing slide surface of front retainer.
²release bearing bore.
²release fork.
²release fork ball stud.
²propeller shaft slip yoke.
(2) Apply sealer to threads of bottom PTO cover
bolt and install bolt in case.
(3) Mount transmission on jack and position trans-
mission under vehicle.
(4) Raise transmission until input shaft is centered
in clutch disc hub.
(5) Move transmission forward and start input
shaft in clutch disc and pilot bushing/bearing.
(6) Work transmission forward until seated against
engine block. Do not allow transmission to remain
unsupported after input shaft has entered clutch
disc.
(7) Install and tighten transmission-to-engine
block bolts.
(8) Install clutch slave cylinder.
(9) Connect backup light switch wires.
(10) Position transmission harness wires in clips
on transmission.(11) Install transmission mount on transmission or
rear crossmember.
(12) Install rear crossmember.
(13) Remove transmission jack and engine support
fixture.
(14) Fill transmission with required lubricant (Fig.
98). Check lubricant level in transfer case if
equipped.
TWO WHEEL DRIVE
(1) Install propeller shaft with referece marks
aligned.
(2) Install exhaust system components.
(3) Remove support and lower vehicle.
(4) Shift transmission into third gear.
(5) Clean the mating surfaces of shift tower and
isolator plate with suitable wax and grease remover.
(6) Apply Mopar Gasket Maker or equivalent to
sealing surface of the transmission case. Do not over
apply sealant.
(7) Install isolator plate onto the transmission case
metal side down.
(8) Install shift tower onto the isolator plate. No
sealant is necessary between the shift tower and top
of isolator plate.
(9) Verify shift tower, isolator plate and the shift
socket are properly aligned.
(10) Install bolts to hold the shift tower to the iso-
lator plate and the transmission case. Tighten bolts
to 10.2±11.25 N´m (7.5±8.3 ft. lbs.).
(11) Install shift boot and bezel.
(12) Connect battery negative cable.
FOUR WHEEL DRIVE
(1) Install and secure transfer case on the trans-
mission jack.
(2) Raise and align transfer case input gear with
transmission mainshaft.

(3) Move transfer case forward and seat it on
adapter.
(4) Install and tighten transfer case mounting nuts
to 41-47 N´m (30-35 ft. lbs.) if case has 3/8 studs. If
case has 5/16 studs tighten to 30-41 N´m (22-30 ft.
lbs.).
(5) Connect transfer case shift lever to range lever
on transfer case.
(6) Install propeller shafts with reference marks
aligned.
(7) Install transfer case skid plate, if equipped,
and crossmember. Tighten attaching bolts/nuts to 41
N´m (30 ft. lbs.).
(8) Install exhaust system components.
(9) Remove support and lower vehicle.
(10) Shift transmission into third gear.
(11) Clean the mating surfaces of shift tower, iso-
lator plate and transmission case with suitable wax
and grease remover.(12) Apply Mopar Gasket Maker or equivalent to
the sealing surface of the transmission case. Do not
over apply sealant.
(13) Install isolator plate onto the transmission
case, metal side down.
(14) Install shift tower onto the isolator plate. No
sealant is necessary between the shift tower and top
of isolator plate.
(15) Verify that the shift tower, isolator plate and
the shift tower bushings are properly aligned.
(16) Install the bolts to hold the shift tower to the
isolator plate and the transmission case. Tighten the
shift tower bolts to 10.2-11.25 N´m (7.5-8.3 ft. lbs.).
