Service Precaution 
 
WARNING: THIS VEHICLE HAS A SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS). REFER TO THE SRS 
COMPONENT AND WIRING LOCATION VIEW IN 
ORDER TO DETERMINE WHETHER YOU ARE 
PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR NEAR THE SRS 
COMPONENTS OR THE SRS WIRING. WHEN YOU 
ARE PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR NEAR THE 
SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS WIRING, REFER 
TO THE SRS SERVICE INFORMATION. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN POSSIBLE
AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, PERSONAL INJURY, OR 
OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS SYSTEM REPAIRS.  CAUTION: Always use the correct fastener in the 
proper location. When you replace a fastener, use 
ONLY the exact part number for that application. 
ISUZU will call out those fasteners that require a 
replacement after removal. ISUZU will also call out 
the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread 
sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not 
use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, or 
other corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or
fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings 
adversely affect the fastener torque and the joint 
clamping force, and may damage the fastener. 
When you install fasteners, use the correct 
tightening sequence and specifications. Following 
these instructions can help you avoid damage to 
parts and systems.

General Description 
MUA Transmission (4
 4) 
 A07R300003 
The MUA is a constant mesh transmission, 
synchronized in all speeds. The transmission is 
designed for a great reduction of the shift effort and the 
quietest possible operation. 
   Principle parts of the transmission are the integral clutch 
housing, the intermediate plate, the rear case, and the 
gears. 
The transmission control box is built into the 
transmission.
