ADJUSTMENTS
ADJUSTMENT - BANDS
FRONT BAND
The front (kickdown) band adjusting screw (2) is
located on the left side of the transmission case above
the manual valve and throttle valve levers.

REAR BAND
The transmission oil pan must be removed for access
to the rear band adjusting screw (1).
1. Raise vehicle.
2. Remove transmission oil pan and drain fluid.
3. Loosen band adjusting screw locknut 5-6 turns. Be
sure adjusting screw turns freely in lever.
4. Tighten adjusting screw to 8 Nꞏm (72 in. lbs.)
torque.
5. Back off adjusting screw 3 turns.
6. Hold adjusting screw in place and tighten locknut to
34 Nꞏm (25 ft. lbs.) torque.
7. Position new gasket on oil pan and install pan on
transmission. Tighten pan bolts to 17 Nꞏm (13 ft.
lbs.) torque.
8. Lower vehicle and refill transmission with Mopar
ATF +4, Automatic Transmission fluid.

3. Clean the gasket surfaces of the transmission oil
pan (3) and transmission pan rail.
NOTE: The transmission pan oil gasket (2) is reus-
able. Inspect the sealing surfaces of the gasket. If
the sealing ribs on both surfaces appear to be in
good condition, clean the gasket of any foreign
material and reinstall.
4. Position the oil pan gasket (2) onto the oil pan (3).
5. Position the oil pan and gasket onto the transmis-
sion and install several bolts to hold the pan and
gasket to the transmission.
6. Install the remainder of the oil pan bolts. Tighten
the bolts to 13.6 Nꞏm (125 in.lbs.).
7. Lower vehicle and fill transmission. (Refer to 21 -
TRANSMISSION/AUTOMATIC/FLUID - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
TRANSMISSION FILL
To avoid overfilling transmission after a fluid change or overhaul, perform the following procedure:
1. Remove dipstick and insert clean funnel in transmission fill tube.
2. Add following initial quantity of Mopar
ATF+4totransmission:
a. If only fluid and filter were changed, add3 pints (1-1/2 quarts)of ATF +4 to transmission.
b. If transmission was completely overhauled, torque converter was replaced or drained, and cooler was
flushed, add12 pints (6 quarts)of ATF +4 to transmission.
3. Apply parking brakes.
4. Start and run engine at normal curb idle speed.
5. Apply service brakes, shift transmission through all gear ranges then back to NEUTRAL, set parking brake, and
leave engine running at curb idle speed.
6. Remove funnel, insert dipstick andcheck fluid level. If level is low,add fluid to bring level to MIN mark on
dipstick.Check to see if the oil level is equal on both sides of the dipstick. If one side is noticably higher than
the other, the dipstick has picked up some oil from the dipstick tube. Allowthe oil to drain down the dipstick tube
and re-check.
7. Drive vehicle until transmission fluid is at normal operating temperature.
8. With the engine running at curb idle speed, the gear selector in NEUTRAL,and the parking brake applied, check
the transmission fluid level.
CAUTION: Do not overfill transmission, fluid foaming and shifting problems can result.
9. Add fluid to bring level up to MAX arrow mark.
When fluid level is correct, shut engine off, release park brake, remove funnel, and install dipstick in fill tube.

7. Remove any steering column (1) trim necessary to
access the gearshift cable (2) and BTSI mecha-
nism.
8. Disconnect the BTSI wiring connector (5).
9. Disconnect cable at lower column bracket and shift
lever pin and pull the cable through the dash panel
opening into the vehicle.
10. Remove gearshift cable (2) from vehicle.
INSTALLATION
1. Route the transmission end of the gearshift cable
(1) through the opening in the dash panel.
2. Seat the cable grommet (2) into the dash panel
opening.
3. Snap the cable into the steering column (1) bracket
so the retaining ears are engaged and snap the
cable eyelet onto the shift lever ball stud.
4. Raise the vehicle.
5. Place the transmission manual shift lever in the
“PARK” detent (rearmost) position and rotate prop
shaft to ensure transmission is in PARK.
6. Route the gearshift cable through the transmission
mounting bracket and secure the cable by snap-
ping the cable retaining ears into the transmission
bracket and snapping the cable eyelet on the man-
ual shift lever ball stud.
7. Lower vehicle.
8. Lock the shift cable adjustment by pressing the
cable adjuster lock tab (3) downward until it snaps
into place.
9. Check for proper operation of the transmission range sensor.
10. Adjust the gearshift cable (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/AUTOMATIC/GEAR SHIFT CABLE - ADJUST-
MENTS) and BTSI mechanism (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/AUTOMATIC/BRAKE TRANSMISSION SHIFT
INTERLOCK SYSTEM - ADJUSTMENTS) as necessary.

SERVO-REAR
DESCRIPTION
The rear (low/reverse) servo consists of a single stage or diameter pistonand a spring loaded plug. The spring is
used to cushion the application of the rear (low/reverse) band.
OPERATION
While in the de-energized state (no pressure applied), the piston is held up in its bore by the piston spring. The plug
is held down in its bore, in the piston, by the plug spring. When pressure is applied to the top of the piston, the plug
is forced down in its bore, taking up any clearance. As the piston moves, it causes the plug spring to compress, and
the piston moves down over the plug. The piston continues to move down untilit hits the shoulder of the plug and
fully applies the band. The period of time from the initial application, until the piston is against the shoulder of the
plug, represents a reduced shocking of the band that cushions the shift.
DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove small snap-ring (1) and remove plug (3)
and spring (7) from servo piston (8).
2. Remove and discard servo piston seal ring (2).
CLEANING
Remove and discard the servo piston seal ring (2).
Then clean the servo components with solvent and
dry with compressed air. Replace either spring (6, 7) if
collapsed, distorted or broken. Replace the plug (3)
and piston (8) if cracked, bent, or worn. Discard the
servo snap-rings (1, 5) and use new ones at
assembly.
ASSEMBLY
1. Lubricate piston (8) and guide seals (2) with petro-
leum jelly. Lubricate other servo parts with Mopar
ATF +4, Automatic Transmission fluid.
2. Install new seal ring (2) on servo piston.
3. Assemble piston (8), plug (3), spring (6, 7), and
new snap-ring (1).
4. Lubricate piston seal lip with petroleum jelly.
