34.Measure 2/4 clutch clearance:Set up dial indi-
cator (1) as shown. Press down clutch pack with
finger and zero dial indicator. Record measure-
ment in four (4) places and take average reading.
The 2/4 clutch pack clearance is 0.76 to 2.64
mm (0.030 to 0.104 inch).If not within specifica-
tions, the clutch is not assembled properly or is
excessively worn.There is no adjustment for
the 2/4 clutch clearance.
35. Install the #7 needle bearing (1) to the rear sun
gear (2).The number 7 needle bearing has
three antireversal tabs and is common with
the number 5 and number 2 position. The ori-
entation should allow the bearing to seat flat
against the rear sun gear. A small amount of
petrolatum can be used to hold the bearing to
the rear sun gear.
36. Install rear sun gear (2) and #7 needle bearing
(1).

37. Install front carrier/rear annulus assembly (2) and
#6 needle bearing (1).
38. Install front sun gear assembly (1) and #4 thrust
washer (2).
39. Determine proper #4 thrust plate thickness. Select
the thinnest available #4 thrust plate.
40. Install #4 thrust plate (2) using petrolatum to hold
into position.
41. Install input clutch assembly. Ensure the input
clutch assembly is completely seated by viewing
position through input speed sensor hole.If the
speed sensor tone wheel is not centered in
the opening, the input clutches assembly is
not seated properly.

42. Remove the oil pump o-ring (2) and install oil
pump and gasket to transmission.Use screw-in
dowels or phillips-headscrewdrivers to align
pump to case. Be sure to reinstall O-ring on
oil pump after selecting the proper No. 4
thrust plate.
43. Measure the input shaft end play with the trans-
mission in the vertical position. This will ensure
that the measurement will be accurate.
44. Set up and measure endplay using End Play Set
8266 (1, 2) and Dial Indicator Set C-3339 (3) as
shown.
45. Measure input shaft end play.Input shaft end
play must be 0.127 to 0.635 mm (0.005 to 0.025
inch).For example, if end play reading is 0.055
inch, select No. 4 Thrust Plate which is 0.071 to
0.074 thick. This should provide an input shaft
end play reading of 0.020 inch, which is within
specifications.
46. Remove oil pump, gasket, and input clutch
assembly to gain access to and install proper #4
thrust plate.
47. Install input clutch assembly (1) with proper thrust
plate.
Page 2964 of 5267
48. Install #1 caged needle bearing (1).
CAUTION: By-pass valve MUST be replaced if a
transmission failure has occured.
49. Replace cooler by-pass valve (1) if transmission
failure has occurred.
NOTE: To align oil pump, gasket, and case during
installation, use threadeddowels or phillips screw-
drivers.
50. Install oil pump gasket (2).
Page 2965 of 5267
51. Install oil pump (2) and torque oil pump-to-case
bolts (1) to 30 Nꞏm (265 in. lbs.). Do not reuse
original oil pump bolts.
52. Install low/reverse accumulator (1) as shown.
53. Install low/reverse accumulator plug (2).
Page 2966 of 5267
54. Install low/reverse accumulator snap ring (1).
55. Install underdrive (2) and overdrive (1) accumula-
tors and springs.
CAUTION: Do not handle the valve body by the
manual shaft. Damage could result.
56. Install valve body (1) into place as shown.
Page 2967 of 5267
57. Install seven (7) valve body-to-case bolts (1) and
torque to 12 Nꞏm (105 in. lbs.).
58. Install transmission oil filter (1). Tighten the bolts
to5Nꞏm(45in.lbs.).
59. Install transmission oil pan (1) with a bead of
Mopar
AT F R T V.
Page 2968 of 5267

NOTE: Before installing the oil pan bolt in the bolt
hole located between the torque converter clutch
on and U/D clutch pressure tap circuits , it will be
necessary to replenish the sealing patch on the
bolt using MOPAR
Lock & Seal Adhesive.
60. Install and torque the oil pan-to-case bolts to 20
Nꞏm (14.5 ft. lbs.).
NOTE: Before installing either speed sensor bolt,
it will be necessary to replentish the sealing patch
on the bolt using Mopar
Lock & Seal Adhesive.
61. Install both speed sensors (1, 2) into the transmis-
sion case. Torque the speed sensor bolts to 9
Nꞏm (80 in. lbs.).
62. As a final check of the transmission, measure the
input shaft end play. This will indicate when a #4
thrust plate change is required. The #4 thrust
plate is located behind the overdrive clutch hub.
Attach a dial indicator to transmission bell housing
with its plunger seated against end of input shaft.
Move input shaft in and out to obtain end play
reading.Input shaft end play must be 0.127 to
0.635 mm (0.005 to 0.025 inch).If not within
specifications, make the necessary thrust plate
adjustment.
