INSPECTION
Inspect the front clutch components. Replace the clutch discs if warped, worn, scored, burned or charred, the lugs
are damaged, or if the facing is flaking off. Replace the steel plates and reaction plate if heavily scored, warped, or
broken. Be sure the driving lugs on the discs and plate are also in good condition. The lugs must not be bent,
cracked or damaged in any way.
Replace the piston springs and spring retainer if either are distorted, warped or broken.
Check the lug grooves in the clutch piston retainer. The steel plates should slide freely in the slots. Replace the
piston retainer if the grooves are worn or damaged. Also check action of thecheck ball in the piston retainer. The
ball must move freely and not stick.
Replace the retainer bushing if worn, scored, or there is any doubt about bushing condition.
Inspect the piston and retainer seal surfaces for nicks or scratches. Minor scratches can be removed with crocus
cloth. However, replace the piston and/or retainer if the seal surfaces are seriously scored.
Check the clutch piston check ball. The ball should be securely in place. Replace the piston if the ball is missing,
or seized in place.
ASSEMBLY
NOTE: The 48RE transmission uses five plates
and discs for the front clutch.
1. Soak clutch discs in transmission fluid.
2. Install new inner piston seal onto the outer diame-
ter of the clutch retainer inner hub.
3. Install new outer seal onto the clutch piston. Be
sure seal lips of both seals face the interior of the
retainer.
4. Lubricate new inner and outer piston seals with
petroleum jelly.
5. Install clutch piston in retainer. Use twisting motion
to seat piston in bottom of retainer. A thin strip of
plastic (about 0.015 - 0.020 in. thick), can be used to guide seals into placeifnecessary.
CAUTION: Never push the clutch piston straight in. This will fold the sealsover causing leakage and clutch
slip. In addition, never use any type of metal tool to help ease the piston seals into place. Metal tools will
cut, shave, or score the seals.
6. Install and position nine clutch piston springs (1).
