2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE fluid

HOSES - 4.7L
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION - 1/2º PRESSURE HOSE
The hose consists of two metal ends and a rubber
center with quick connect nuts at both ends. The
hose connects the power steering pump to the
hydraulic fan motor and is clipped to the fan shroud
(Fig. 8). Lubrication must be used on the quick con-
nect nuts and o-rings when installing.
DESCRIPTION - 1/2º RETURN HOSE
The fan motor return line is a molded rubber hose
that is clamped at the hydraulic motor and the power
steering reservoir (Fig. 9).
DESCRIPTION - 3/8º PRESSURE HOSE
The hose consists of two metal ends and two rub-
ber sections one of which contains a tuning cable
(Fig. 10). The hose is clipped in two places to the fan
shroud. Lubrication must be used on the o-rings
when installing.
DESCRIPTION - 3/8º GEAR OUTLET HOSE
The gear outlet line consists of a metal section that
connects to the gear and a rubber section that clamps
to the steering cooler inlet tube (Fig. 11).
DESCRIPTION - 3/8º RETURN HOSE
The return hose is a formed rubber hose that con-
nects the steering cooler outlet tube to the power
steering reservoir (Fig. 12). It is clamped at both
ends.
OPERATION
OPERATION - 1/2º PRESSURE HOSE
The 1/2º pressure hose is used to transfer high
pressure power steering fluid from the power steer-
ing pump to the engine cooling fan motor (Fig. 8).
OPERATION - 1/2º RETURN HOSE
The power steering return line returns low pres-
sure excess flow from the hydraulic fan motor back to
the power steering pump (Fig. 9).

OPERATION - 3/8º PRESSURE HOSE
High pressure power steering fluid is transmitted
from the hydraulic fan motor to the steering gear by
the 3/8º steering line.
OPERATION - 3/8º GEAR OUTLET HOSE
The gear outlet hose transmits power steering fluid
under moderate low pressure to the power steering
cooler inlet tube.
OPERATION - 3/8ºRETURN HOSE
Low pressure power steering fluid is transmitted
from the steering cooler back to the power steering
pump by the 3/8º return hose.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION -
42RE
DESCRIPTION
The 42RE is a four speed fully automatic transmis-
sion (Fig. 1) with an electronic governor. The 42RE is
equipped with a lock-up clutch in the torque con-
verter. First through third gear ranges are provided
by the clutches, bands, overrunning clutch, and plan-
etary gear sets in the transmission. Fourth gear
range is provided by the overdrive unit that contains
an overdrive clutch, direct clutch, planetary gear set,
and overrunning clutch.The transmission contains a front, rear, and direct
clutch which function as the input driving compo-
nents. It also contains the kickdown (front) and the
low/reverse (rear) bands which, along with the over-
running clutch and overdrive clutch, serve as the
holding components. The driving and holding compo-
nents combine to select the necessary planetary gear
components, in the front, rear, or overdrive planetary
gear set, transfer the engine power from the input
shaft through to the output shaft.
The valve body is mounted to the lower side of the
transmission and contains the valves to control pres-
sure regulation, fluid flow control, and clutch/band
application. The oil pump is mounted at the front of
the transmission and is driven by the torque con-
verter hub. The pump supplies the oil pressure nec-
essary for clutch/band actuation and transmission
lubrication.
