CAUTION: Before beginning assembly, carry out and inspect the following:
When building up subassemblies and assembling the transmission, ALWAYS use new gaskets
and seals.
All fasteners must be tightened to the torque specification indicated. In addition to appearing in
the section, the necessary torques can be found in the General Specifications Chart.
When building up subassemblies, each component part should be lubricated with clean
transmission fluid. It is also good practice to lubricate the subassemblies as they are installed
in the case.
Needle bearings, thrust washers and seals should be lightly coated with petroleum jelly during
subassembly buildup or transmission assembly.
Many components and surfaces in the transmission are precision machined. Careful handling
during disassembly, cleaning, inspection and assembly can prevent unnecessary damage to
machined surfaces.
1. Use the special tools to install the rear case bushing if removed. 1. Position the rear case bushing and the special tool inside the case.
2. Assemble the special tools through the back of the case.
2. Place the transmission in the vertical position.
3. Coat the No. 9 case rear bearing with petroleum jelly and install on the case boss.
4. CAUTION: Be sure the No. 7 needle bearing and direct clutch hub are installed as
shown in the Subassembly section. Internal damage and shift problems may occur. D0AZ-
