OVERHAUL SERVICE INFORMATION
Inspect the transmission bushings during overhaul.
Bushing condition is important as severely worn, or
scored bushings contribute to low pressures, clutch
slip and accelerated wear of other components.How-
ever, do not replace bushings as a matter of
course. Replace bushings only when they are
actually worn, or scored.
Use recommended tools to replace bushings. The
tools are sized and designed to remove, install and
seat bushings correctly. The bushing replacement
tools are included in Bushing Tool Set C-3887-B or
C-3887-J. The bushing tools are manufactured by
Miller Tool Co. and is available through the dealer
tool program.
Pre-sized service bushings are available for replace-
ment purposes. Only the sun gear bushings are not
serviced. Replace the gear as an assembly if the
bushings are worn, or scored.
Heli-Coil inserts are recommended for repairing
damaged, stripped or worn threads in aluminum
parts. These inserts are available from most automo-
tive jobbers. Stainless steel inserts are preferred.
The use of crocus cloth is permissible where neces-
sary. When used on valves, use care to avoid round-
ing off sharp edges. Sharp edges are vital as they
prevent foreign matter from getting between the
valve and valve bore.
Do not reuse oil seals, gaskets, seal rings, or
O-rings during overhaul. Replace these parts as a
matter of course. Also do not reuse snap rings or E-
clips that are bent or distorted. Replace these parts
as well.Lubricate transmission parts with Mopar ATF
Plus, Type 7176 transmission fluid during overhaul
and assembly.
Use petroleum jelly to hold parts like thrust wash-
ers in place during assembly. Use Mopar Door Ease,
Ru-Glyde, or similar products to lubricate piston
seals and O-rings to ease installation. Petroleum jelly
can also be used to prelubricate parts during reas-
sembly if desired.
TRANSMISSION CASE CLEANING AND
INSPECTION
Clean the case in a solvent tank. Flush the case
bores and fluid passages thoroughly with solvent.
Use compressed air to dry the case and clear the
fluid passages. Be sure all solvent is removed from
the case as well.
Do not use shop towels or rags to dry the case
(or any other transmission component) unless
they are made from lint-free materials. Lint
will readily adhere to case surfaces and trans-
mission components and will circulate through-
out the transmission after assembly. A sufficient
quantity of lint can block fluid passages and in-
terfere with valve body operation.
Inspect the case for cracks, porous spots, worn
bores, or damaged threads. Damaged threads can be
repaired with Helicoil thread inserts. However, the
case will have to be replaced if it exhibits any type of
damage or wear.
Lubricate the front band adjusting screw threads
with petroleum jelly and thread the screw part-way
into the case. Be sure the screw turns freely.
Remount the case in a repair stand after cleaning
and inspection.

DISASSEMBLING OVERRUNNING CLUTCH/
LOW-REVERSE DRUM
If the clutch assembly came out with the low-re-
verse drum, thread two clutch cam bolts into the
cam. Then lift the cam out of the drum with the bolts
(Fig. 30). Rotate the cam back and forth to ease re-
moval if necessary. Remove the clutch roller and
spring assembly from the race afterward.
CLEANING AND INSPECTION
Clean the overrunning clutch assembly, clutch cam,
low-reverse drum and rear support in solvent. Dry
them with compressed air after cleaning.
Inspect condition of each clutch part after cleaning.
Replace the overrunning clutch roller and spring as-
sembly if any rollers or springs are worn or damaged,
or if the roller cage is distorted, or damaged. Replace
the cam if worn, cracked or damaged.

Replace the low-reverse drum if the clutch race,
roller surface or inside diameter is scored, worn or
damaged.Do not remove the clutch race from
the low-reverse drum under any circumstances.
Replace the drum and race as an assembly if ei-
ther component is damaged.
Examine the rear support carefully for wear,
cracks, scoring or other damage. Be sure the support
hub is a snug fit in the case and drum. Replace the
support if worn or damaged.

sembly.If overrunning clutch will be installed
before final assembly, install cam only as de-
scribed in Transmission Assembly And Adjust-
ment section. Clutch cam must be properly
indexed in case to fit and operate properly.
ADAPTER/EXTENSION HOUSING INSPECTION AND
PARK LOCK COMPONENT OVERHAUL
Clean the housing and park lock components in sol-
vent and dry them with compressed air.
Inspect the output shaft bearing in the housing
(Fig. 35). Replace the bearing if worn, damaged, or
noisy.Examine the park lock components. If replacement
is necessary, remove the shaft with parallel jaw snap
ring pliers (Fig. 36) and remove the sprag and
spring. Then remove the spring clip and reaction
plug (Fig. 37).
Compress the reaction plug spring clip only
enough to remove or install it. The clip is easily
distorted if overcompressed. Replace the clip if
it becomes bent or distorted. Do not straighten
and reuse the clip if this occurs.
Be sure a replacement sprag is installed so the
sprag locking lug will face the park gear. Also be sure
the spring is correctly positioned as shown (Fig. 38).
The sprag may not retract if the spring is im-
properly installed.

if damaged. Inspect the park gear for chipped or
worn gear teeth or damaged ring grooves. Replace
the gear, if damaged.
Check the teeth on the park gear for wear or dam-
age. Replace the gear if necessary. Inspect the metal
seal rings on the park gear hub. Replace the rings
only if severely worn, or broken.
Minor scratches, or burrs on governor components
can be cleaned up with oil-soaked crocus cloth. How-
ever, do not attempt to salvage components that are
severely worn or scored.
The governor valve is made of aluminum and
the output shaft has been spotfaced to accept
the valve. The aluminum valve must not be
used in prior transmissions. The valve can only
be used with an output shaft that has been
spotfaced for valve end clearance. In addition,
the governor body and output shaft must be
properly indexed during reassembly. Be sure to
index these components as described in the
Transmission Assembly and Adjustment proce-
dures.
Check condition of the park gear seal rings, ring
grooves and gear teeth (Fig. 45). Replace the gear as
an assembly if the teeth or ring grooves are worn, or
damaged.
Replace the park gear front and rear seal rings if
cracked, or worn. The front ring is a plain type andthe rear ring is a hook style. If replacement rings are
both hook-style, be sure the ring ends are properly
hooked together.
GOVERNOR/PARK GEAR ASSEMBLY
(1) Lubricate governor components with Mopar
ATF Plus transmission fluid during assembly.
(2) Install new seal rings on park gear hub (Fig.
45). Install ring with interlock ends first and ring
with plain ends last. Slip each ring on hub and seat
them in grooves. Verify that rear ring ends are se-
curely interlocked before proceeding.
CAUTION: Exercise care when installing the rings.
They are easily broken if overspread or twisted dur-
ing installation.
