CLUTCH AIR PRESSURE TESTS
Inoperative clutches can be located by substituting air
pressure for fluid pressure. The clutches may be
tested by applying air pressure to their respective pas-
sages after the valve body has been removed. Use
Plate Set 6599-1 (1) and 6599-2 (1) to perform test.
To make air pressure tests, proceed as follows:
NOTE: The compressed air supply must be free of
all dirt and moisture. Use a pressure of 30 psi.
1. Remove oil pan and valve body. (Refer to 21 -
TRANSMISSION/AUTOMATIC - 42RLE/VALVE
BODY - REMOVAL)
2. Apply air pressure to the holes in the plates (1),
one at a time.
3. Listen for the clutch to apply. It will give a slight
thud sound. If a large amount of air is heard escap-
ing, the transmission must be removed from vehi-
cle, disassembled and all seals inspected.
2/4 CLUTCH
Apply air pressure to the feed hole located on the 2/4 clutch retainer (2). Look in the area where the 2/4 piston
contacts the first separator plate and watch carefully for the 2/4 piston tomoverearward.Thepistonshouldreturn
to its original position after the air pressure is removed.

16. Remove the starter motor.
17. Remove the engine to transmission collar.
18. Rotate crankshaft in clockwise direction until con-
verter bolts are accessible. Then remove bolts
one at a time. Rotate crankshaft with socket
wrench on dampener bolt.
19. Disconnect the transmission vent hose from the
transmission.
20. Remove transfer case. (Refer to 21 - TRANSMIS-
SION/TRANSFER CASE - REMOVAL)
21. Support rear of engine with safety stand or jack.
22. Raise transmission slightly with service jack to
relieve load on crossmember and supports.
23. Remove bolts securing rear support and cushion
to transmission and crossmember.
24. Remove bolts attaching crossmember to frame
and remove crossmember.
25. Disconnect transmission fluid cooler lines (1) at
transmission fittings (3) and clips (2).
26. Remove all remaining converter housing bolts.
27. Carefully work transmission and torque converter
assembly rearward off engine block dowels.
28. Hold torque converter in place during transmission
removal.
29. Lower transmission and remove assembly from
under the vehicle.
30. To remove torque converter, carefully slide torque
converter out of the transmission.
DISASSEMBLY
NOTE: If the transmission is being reconditioned (clutch/seal replacement) or replaced, it is necessary to
perform the Quick Learn Procedure using the scan tool (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL
MODULES/TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
NOTE: Tag all clutch pack assemblies, as they are removed, for reassembly identification.
CAUTION: Do not intermix clutch discs or plates as the unit might then fail.
Before disassembling transmission, move the shift lever clockwise as faras it will go and then remove the shift
lever.

14. Install Support Plate 6618A (1). Lightly tighten
retaining screws. Screws should be below the
plate surface, but do not snug screws.
15. Turn case over on arbor press so that the plate is
resting on the press base.CAUTION: The output
shaft will extend through the hole of Support
Plate 6618A. Ensure your press table has
clearance for the output shaft.
16. Install shim (1) on output shaft (2). Apply small
amount of petrolatum onto the shim to hold it in
place. Use the original shim as a starting point. If
original shim is not available, use the thickest
shim available.

69. Install the bolts that hold the adapter or extension
housing onto the transmission case. Be sure to
install any stud bolts to their original locations.
Tighten the bolts to 54 Nꞏm (40 ft.lbs.).
INSTALLATION
NOTE: Check torque converter hub and hub drive flats for sharp edges burrs,scratches, or nicks. Polish
the hub and flats with 320/400 grit paper and crocus cloth if necessary. Thehub must be smooth to avoid
damaging pump seal at installation.
1. If a replacement transmission is being installed, transfer any components necessary, such as the manual shift
lever and shift cable bracket, from the original transmission onto the replacement transmission.
2. Lubricate oil pump seal lip with transmission fluid.
3. Align converter and oil pump.
4. Carefully insert converter in oil pump. Then rotate
converter back and forth until fully seated in pump
gears.
5. Check converter seating with steel scale (1) and
straightedge (2). Surface of converter lugs should
be at least 13mm (1/2 in.) to rear of straightedge
when converter is fully seated.
6. Temporarily secure converter with C-clamp.
7. Position transmission on jack and secure it with chains.
8. Check condition of converter driveplate. Replace the plate if cracked,distorted or damaged.Also be sure trans-
mission dowel pins are seated in engine block and protrude far enough to holdtransmissioninalign-
ment.
9. Apply a light coating of Mopar
High Temp Grease to the torque converter hub pocket in the rear pocket of the
engine’s crankshaft.
10. Raise transmission and align the torque converter with the drive plateand transmission converter housing with
the engine block.
11. Move transmission forward. Then raise, lower or tilt transmission to align the converter housing with engine
block dowels.

SEAL-OIL PUMP
REMOVAL
1. Remove the transmission from the vehicle (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/AUTOMATIC - 42RLE - REMOVAL).
2. Remove the torque converter from the transmission bellhousing.
3. Use a screw mounted in a slide hammer to remove oil pump seal.
INSTALLATION
1. Clean and inspect oil pump seal seat. Then install seal using Seal Installer C-4193-A.
2. Clean and inspect torque converter hub. If nicks, scratches or hub wear are found, torque converter replacement
will be required.
CAUTION: If the torque converter isbeing replaced, apply a light coating of grease to the crankshaft pilot
hole. Also inspect the engine drive plate for cracks. If any cracks are found replace the drive plate. Do not
attempt to repair a cracked drive plate. Always use new torque converter todrive plate bolts.
3. Apply a light film of transmission oil to the torque converter hub and oilseal lips. Then install torque converter
into transmission. Be sure that the hub lugs mesh with the front pump lugs when installing.
4. Reinstall the transmission into the vehicle. (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 42RLE -
INSTALLATION)

TURBINE
As the fluid that was put into motion bythe impeller blades strikes the blades of the turbine, some of the energy and
rotational force is transferred into the turbine and the input shaft. Thiscauses both of them (turbine and input shaft)
to rotate in a clockwise direction following the impeller. As the fluid is leaving the trailing edges of the turbine’s
blades it continues in a “hindering” direction back toward the impeller. If the fluid is not redirected before it strikes
the impeller, it will strike the impeller in such a direction that it would tend to slow it down.
STATOR
Torque multiplication is achieved by locking the stator’s over-running clutch to its shaft. Under stall conditions (the
turbine is stationary), the oil leaving the turbine blades strikes the face of the stator blades and tries to rotate them
in a counterclockwise direction. When this happens the over-running clutch of the stator locks and holds the stator
from rotating. With the stator locked, the oil strikes the stator blades and is redirected into a “helping” direction
before it enters the impeller. This circulation of oil from impeller to turbine, turbine to stator, and stator to impeller,
can produce a maximum torque multiplicationofabout2.4:1.Astheturbinebegins to match the speed of the impel-
ler, the fluid that was hitting the stator in such as way as to cause it to lock-up is no longer doing so. In this con-
dition of operation, the stator begins to free wheel and the converter actsas a fluid coupling.
