2006 DODGE RAM SRT-10 transmission oil

INSTALLATION
1. Check condition of O-ring seals (1) on valve body
harness connector (2). Replace seals on connector
body if cut or worn.
2. Check condition of manual lever shaft seal (2) in
transmission case. Replace seal if lip is cut or
worn. Install new seal with 15/16 deep well socket
(1).
3. Check condition of seals on accumulator piston. Install new piston seals, if necessary.
4. Place valve body manual lever in low (1 position) so ball on park lock rod will be easier to install in sprag.
5. Lubricate shaft of manual lever with petroleum jelly. This will ease inserting shaft through seal in case.
6. Lubricate seal rings on valve body harness connector with petroleum jelly.
7. Position valve body in case and work end of park lock rod into and through pawl sprag. Turn propeller shaft to
align sprag and park lock teeth if necessary. The rod will click as it enterspawl. Move rod to check engagement.
CAUTION: It is possible for the park rod to displace into a cavity just abovethe pawl sprag during instal-
lation. Make sure the rod is actually engaged in the pawl and has not displaced into this cavity.
8. Install accumulator spring and piston into case. Then swing valve body overpistonandouterspringtoholditin
place.
9. Align accumulator piston and outer spring, manual lever shaft and electrical connector in case.
10. Then seat valve body in case and install one or two bolts to hold valve bodyinplace.
11. Tighten valve body bolts alternately and evenly to 11 Nꞏm (100 in. lbs.)torque.
12. Install new fluid filter on valve body. Tighten filter screws to 4 Nꞏm (35 in. lbs.) torque.
13. Install throttle and gearshift levers on valve body manual lever shaft.
14. Check and adjust front and rear bands if necessary.
15. Install the transmission range sensor (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/AUTOMATIC/TRANSMISSION RANGE
SENSOR - INSTALLATION).
16. Connect solenoid case connector wires.
17. Install oil pan and new gasket. Tighten pan bolts to 13.6 Nꞏm (125 in. lbs.) torque.
18. Lower vehicle and fill transmission with Mopar
ATF +4, Automatic Transmission fluid.

Condition Possible Cause Correction
Lubricant leaking from output shaft
seal or vent.1) Transfer case overfilled. 1) Drain lubricant to the correct
level.
2) Vent closed or restricted. 2) Clear or replace vent as
necessary.

4. Align and connect propeller shafts. (Refer to 3 - DIFFERENTIAL & DRIVELINE/PROPELLER SHAFT/PROPEL-
LER SHAFT - INSTALLATION)
5. Connect vent hose and transfer case position sensor connector.
6. Connect shift rod to transfer case lever or floor shift arm. Use channel lock style pliers to press rod back into
lever grommet.
7. Adjust shift linkage, if necessary.
8. Fill transfer case with recommended transmission fluid and install fillplug.
9. Install skid plate, if equipped. (Refer to 13 - FRAMES & BUMPERS/FRAME/TRANSFER CASE SKID PLATE -
