2003 FORD MUSTANG wheel torque

32. Install the torque converter nuts.
33. Install the flywheel inspection cover.
34. Install the driveshaft onto the transmission output shaft, aligning the index-
mark in the six
o'clock position.
35. CAUTION: Use new bolts to install the driveshaft. If new bolts are not available,
apply threadlock to the threads of the original bolts.
CAUTION: The driveshaft centering socket yoke fits tightly on the rear axle pinion
flange pilot. To make sure the yoke seats squarely on the flange, tighten the bolts evenly
in the sequence shown.
NOTE: Align the marks made on the flange and driveshaft during removal.
Position the driveshaft and install the driveshaft- to-pinion flange bolts in the sequence shown. Klj . 10 ba

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Transmission Description
The 4R70W has the following features:
zWide ratio gears
z Four speeds
z Rear wheel drive
z Automatic
z Electronic shift
z Torque converter clutch control
z Line pressure controls
The transmission uses Ravigneaux- style double-pinion gearset with two bands, one one- way roller
clutch, one mechanical diode and four friction clutches to produce four forward gears and Reverse.

forces exerted by the clutch pressure plate and the flywheel on the facings. These factors limit
the amount of torque that can be transmitted without slippage.
z The clamping force is obtained from a diaphragm spring contained within the clutch pressure
plate assembly. This force is developed during the attachment of the clutch pressure plate
assembly to the flywheel.
z The clutch system is disengaged when the clutch pedal is pressed and is accomplished when
the release fingers are fully displaced toward the flywheel. This displacement removes the
spring load from the clutch pressure plate and eliminates the coupling friction between the
engine and the transmission.
z When the clutch pedal is depressed a cable connected to the clutch release lever, hub and
bearing actuates the clutch pressure plate diaphragm spring, releasing pressure on the clutch
disc. This eliminates the engagement between the transmission and the engine. Klj . 4 ba

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Clutch
The primary function of the clutch is to couple and uncouple engine power to the transmission upon
driver command. For additional information, refer to
Section 308 - 02 .
z The clutch is a single plate, dry friction clutch disc. The clutch disc has a splined hub (with
integral torsional dampening springs) which attaches the clutch disc to the input shaft.
z Engine output is coupled to the input shaft by the friction existing between the clutch disc
facings and the flywheel/clutch pressure plate assembly. The extent of this friction is directly
related to the composition of the facing material and the magnitude of the clamping force
exerted by the clutch pressure plate. These factors limit the amount of torque that can be
transmitted without slippage.
z The clamping force is obtained from a diaphragm spring contained within the clutch pressure
plate assembly. This force is developed during the attachment of the clutch pressure plate to
the flywheel.
z The clutch system is disengaged when the clutch pedal is depressed and engaged when the
clutch pedal is released. This displacement removes the spring load from the clutch pressure
plate and eliminates the coupling friction between the engine and the transmission.
z When the clutch pedal is depressed, a cable connected to the clutch release lever, hub and
bearing actuates the clutch pressure plate diaphragm spring, releasing pressure on the clutch
disc. This eliminates the engagement between the transmission and the engine.
