CLEANING
Clean the geartrain and case components with sol-
vent. Dry all parts except the bearings with com-
pressed air. Allow bearings to air dry.
Do not use shop towels for wiping parts dry unless
the towels are made from a lint-free material. A suf-
ficient quantity of lint (from shop towels, cloths, rags,
etc.) could plug the transmission filter and fluid pas-
sages.
Discard the old case gasket and seals. Do not
attempt to salvage these parts. They are not reus-
able. Replace any of the overdrive unit snap-rings if
distorted or damaged.
Minor nicks or scratches on components can be
smoothed with crocus cloth. However, do not attempt
to reduce severe scoring on any components with
abrasive materials. Replace severely scored compo-
nents; do not try to salvage them.
INSPECTION
Check condition of the park lock components and
the overdrive case.
Check the bushings in the overdrive case. Replace
the bushings if severely scored or worn. Also replace
the case seal if loose, distorted, or damaged.
Examine the overdrive and direct clutch discs and
plates. Replace the discs if the facing is worn,
severely scored, or burned and flaking off. Replace
the clutch plates if worn, heavily scored, or cracked.
Check the lugs on the clutch plates for wear. The
plates should slide freely in the drum. Replace the
plates or drum if binding occurs.
Check condition of the annulus gear, direct clutch
hub, clutch drum and clutch spring. Replace the gear,
hub and drum if worn or damaged. Replace the
spring if collapsed, distorted, or cracked.
Be sure the splines and lugs on the gear, drum and
hub are in good condition. The clutch plates and
discs should slide freely in these components.
Inspect the thrust bearings and spring plate.
Replace the plate if worn or scored. Replace the bear-
ings if rough, noisy, brinnelled, or worn.
Inspect the planetary gear assembly and the sun
gear and bushings. If either the sun gear or the
bushings are damaged, replace the gear and bush-
ings as an assembly. The gear and bushings are not
serviced separately.
The planetary carrier and pinions must be in good
condition. Also be sure the pinion pins are secure and
in good condition. Replace the carrier if worn or dam-
aged.
Inspect the overrunning clutch and race. The race
surface should be smooth and free of scores. Replace
the overrunning clutch assembly or the race if either
assembly is worn or damaged in any way.

Replace the shaft pilot bushing and inner bushing
if damaged. Replace either shaft bearing if rough or
noisy. Replace the bearing snap-rings if distorted or
cracked.
Check the machined surfaces on the output shaft.
These surfaces should clean and smooth. Very minor
nicks or scratches can be smoothed with crocus cloth.
Replace the shaft if worn, scored or damaged in any
way.
Inspect the output shaft bushings. The small bush-
ing is the intermediate shaft pilot bushing. The large
bushing is the overrunning clutch hub bushing.
Replace either bushing if scored, pitted, cracked, or
worn.
ASSEMBLY
GEARTRAIN AND DIRECT CLUTCH
(1) Soak direct clutch and overdrive clutch discs in
MopartATF +4, type 9602, transmission fluid. Allow
discs to soak for 10-20 minutes.
(2) Install new pilot bushing and clutch hub bush-
ing in output shaft if necessary (Fig. 146). Lubricate
bushings with petroleum jelly, or transmission fluid.
(3) Install annulus gear on output shaft, if
removed. Then install annulus gear retaining snap-
ring (Fig. 147).(4) Align and install clutch drum on annulus gear
(Fig. 148). Be sure drum is engaged in annulus gear
lugs.
(5) Install clutch drum outer retaining ring (Fig.
148).

(6) Slide clutch drum forward and install inner
retaining ring (Fig. 149).
(7) Install rear bearing and snap-ring on output
shaft (Fig. 150). Be sure locating ring groove in bear-
ing is toward rear.
(8) Install overrunning clutch on hub (Fig. 151).
Note that clutch only fits one way. Shoulder on clutch
should seat in small recess at edge of hub.(9) Install thrust bearing on overrunning clutch
hub. Use generous amount of petroleum jelly to hold
bearing in place for installation. Bearing fits one way
only. Be sure bearing is seated squarely against hub.
Reinstall bearing if it does not seat squarely.
(10) Install overrunning clutch in output shaft
(Fig. 152). Insert snap-ring pliers in hub splines.
Expand pliers to grip hub. Then install assembly
with counterclockwise, twisting motion.
(11) Install planetary gear in annulus gear (Fig.
153). Be sure planetary pinions are fully seated in
annulus gear before proceeding.
(12) Coat planetary thrust bearing and bearing
contact surface of spring plate with generous amount
of petroleum jelly. This will help hold bearing in
place during installation.
(13) Install planetary thrust bearing on sun gear
(Fig. 154). Slide bearing onto gear and seat it against
spring plate as shown. Bearing fits one way only. If it
does not seat squarely against spring plate, remove
and reposition bearing.
(14) Install assembled sun gear, spring plate and
thrust bearing (Fig. 155). Be sure sun gear and
thrust bearing are fully seated before proceeding.

(15) Mount assembled output shaft, annulus gear,
and clutch drum in shop press. Direct clutch spring,
hub and clutch pack are easier to install with assem-
bly mounted in press.
(16) Align splines in hubs of planetary gear and
overrunning clutch with Alignment tool 6227-2 (Fig.
156). Insert tool through sun gear and into splines of
both hubs. Be sure alignment tool is fully seated
before proceeding.
(17) Install direct clutch spring (Fig. 157). Be sure
spring is properly seated on spring plate.
NOTE: The direct clutch in a 47RE transmission
uses 10 clutch discs.

hub as follows:
(a) Assemble clutch pack components.
(b) Install direct clutch reaction plate on clutch
hub first. Note that one side of reaction plate is
counterbored. Be sure this side faces rearward.
Splines at rear of hub are raised slightly. Counter-
bore in plate fits over raised splines. Plate should
be flush with this end of hub (Fig. 158).
(c) Install first clutch disc followed by a steel
plate until all discs and plates have been installed.
(d) Install pressure plate. This is last clutch
pack item to be installed. Be sure plate is installed
with shoulder side facing upward (Fig. 159).
(19) Install clutch hub and clutch pack on direct
clutch spring (Fig. 160). Be sure hub is started on
sun gear splines before proceeding.

hub.
(21) Compress clutch hub and spring just enough
to place tension on hub and hold it in place.
(22) Slowly compress clutch hub and spring. Com-
press spring and hub only enough to expose ring
grooves for clutch pack snap-ring and clutch hub
retaining ring.
(23) Realign clutch pack on hub and seat clutch
discs and plates in clutch drum.
(24) Install direct clutch pack snap-ring (Fig. 161).
Be very sure snap-ring is fully seated in clutch drum
ring groove.
