transmission with jack.
(6) Disconnect transmission and transfer case shift
linkage.
(7) Remove necessary exhaust components.
(8) Disconnect vehicle speed sensor wires
(9) Mark position of front and rear propeller shafts
for alignment reference. Then remove shafts from ve-
hicle.(10) Remove rear crossmember.

mission. Then disconnect transmission throttle valve
cable at engine.
(12) Disconnect necessary vacuum and fluid hoses.
(13) Remove transfer case from transmission.
(14) Disconnect and remove crankshaft position
sensor (Fig. 2).
CAUTION: The crankshaft position sensor can be
damaged during transmission removal (or installa-
tion) if the sensor is still bolted to the engine block.
To avoid damage, remove the sensor before remov-
ing the transmission.
(15) Remove starter motor.
(16) Remove bolts attaching converter to drive
plate.
(17) Remove bolts attaching converter housing to
engine.
(18) Secure transmission to jack with safety
chains.
(19) Pull transmission rearward for access to con-
verter. Then secure converter in pump with C-clamp
or strap bolted to converter housing.

secure transmission to jack with safety chains.
(2) Lubricate converter drive hub and oil pump
seal lip with transmission fluid. Then install con-
verter. Be sure converter is fully seated in oil pump
gears before proceeding. Hold converter in place with
C-clamp or strap attached to converter housing.
(3) Align and position transmission and converter
on engine.
(4) Remove clamp or strap used to hold torque con-
verter in place.
(5) Move transmission forward seat and it on en-
gine. Be sure torque converter hub is fully seated.

5).
(7) Install converter-to-drive plate bolts.
(8) Install and connect starter motor.
(9) Install and connect crankshaft position sensor.
(10) Install transfer case on transmission. Tighten
transfer case attaching nuts to 41 Nzm (30 ft. lbs.)
torque
(11) Connect transfer case shift linkage and vac-
uum hoses.
(12) Connect exhaust components.
(13) Install rear crossmember and remove jack
used to support transmission assembly.
(14) Connect speed sensor wire harness to sensor.
(15) Connect wire harness to park/neutral position
switch.(16) Align and connect front and rear propeller
shafts.

(43) Remove planetary thrust race (Fig. 35).
(44) Relieve load on planetary snap ring as follows:
Loosen transmission holding fixture. Turn transmis-
sion over and allow output shaft to support transmis-
sion weight. Place wood blocks under shaft to protect
splines (Fig. 35).
(45) Remove planetary snap ring and remove plan-
etary gear (Fig. 36).
(46) Remove sun gear, input drum and one-way
clutch as assembly (Fig. 37).

(13) Install pump in torque converter and check
pump gear rotation. Gears must rotate smoothly
when turned clockwise and counterclockwise.
(14) Lubricate pump O-ring and seal rings with pe-
troleum jelly.
OVERDRIVE PLANETARY GEAR AND CLUTCH
OVERHAUL
GEAR AND CLUTCH DISASSEMBLY
(1) Check operation of one-way clutch in clutch
drum. Hold drum and turn planetary shaft clockwise
and counterclockwise. Shaft should turn clockwise
freely but lock when turned counterclockwise. Re-
place one-way clutch if necessary.(2) Replace overdrive brake clutch pack if discs are
worn below thickness of 1.84 mm (0.0724 in.). This is
clutch pack that fits on clutch drum and in case.

(14) Install clutch drum bearing and race assembly
(Fig. 27). Be sure bearing rollers face upward as
shown. Outside diameter of assembled bearing and
race is 50.2 mm (1.976 in.). Inside diameter is 28.9
mm (1.138 in.).(15) Install clutch on planetary gear.
(16) Verify one-way clutch operation. Hold drum
and turn planetary shaft clockwise and counterclock-
wise. Shaft should turn clockwise freely but lock
when turned counterclockwise.

lowing steps (2) through (7).
(2) Position overdrive support on wood blocks and
mount forward clutch drum on support (Fig. 2).
(3) Remove bearing and race from forward clutch
drum (Fig. 2).
