SERVICE POINTS OF REASSEMBLY6. INSTALLATION OF SNAP RING
(I) Compress the return spring with the special tool.
(2) Install the snap ring.
5. INSTALLATION OF CLUTCH PRESSURE PLATE
/ 3.
CLUTCH PLATE / 2. CLUTCH REACTION PLATE
(1) When installing the clutch pressure plate, clutch plate,
and clutch reaction plate, align the areas where one
tooth is missing [indicated by @I.
NOTE
This ensures that the automatic transmission fluid
escapes well and the plate and disc are cooled
efficiently.
(2) Install the plates so that the shear droop side of each
plate is located as shown.
(3) Make sure that the thickest plate (clutch reaction plate)
is located on the snap ring side.
1. SELECTION OF SNAP RING
(1) Check clearance between the snap ring and clutch
reaction plate. To check the clearance, hold entire
circumference of the clutch reaction plate down with 50
N (11
Ibs.) force. If clearance is out of standard value,
select a snap ring to obtain the standard value.
Standard value: 0.8
- 1.0 mm (.032 - .039 in.)

1SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE CHECKM3lFDA.E
Check the inflation pressure of the tires. If it is not within the
standard value, make the necessary adjustment.
TIRE WEAR CHECKMJlFBAC
Measure the tread depth of tires.
Limit: 1.6 mm
(.06 in.)
If the remaining tread depth is less than the limit, replace the
tire.
NOTE
When the tread depth of tire is reduced to 1.6 mm (.06 in.) orless, wear indicator will appear.
WHEEL RUNOUT CHECKM31 FCAEJack up the vehicle so that the wheels are clear of the floor.
While slowly turning the wheel, measure wheel runout with a
dial indicator.
Limit:
Radial2.0 mm
(.08 in.)
Lateral2.0 mm (.08 in.)
If wheel
runout exceeds the limit, replace the wheel.
