Suzuki Grand Vitara JB416 / JB420. Manual — part 245

5A-114 Automatic Transmission/Transaxle:

4) Install forward clutch hub (3), direct clutch hub (2)

and retaining ring (1) in that order.

5) Install forward clutch (2) to O/D case (1). Apply

compressed air (400 – 800 kPa, 4 – 8 kg/cm

2

, 57 –

113 psi) to oil hole at the right of cut in O/D case and
measure movement of forward clutch piston.
If measured value is not within standard range,
select another plate with suitable thickness from the
list below and replace it.

Standard forward clutch piston movement
1.40 – 1.70 mm (0.055 – 0.067 in.)

Forward Clutch Inspection

S5JB0A5106079

Forward Clutch Piston
• Shake piston to check that ball is not stuck.
• Blow low pressure air to check ball section for

leakage.

Forward Clutch Piston Return Spring
• Measure free length.

Standard free length of forward clutch piston
return spring
24.81 mm (0.977 in.)

Clutch Plate and Disc
• Check that sliding surface of discs and plate are not

worn or burnt. If necessary, replace them.

NOTE

• If disc lining is exfoliated, discolored or

worn hardly, replace all discs.

• If only a part of printed numbers is

corroded, replace all discs.

• Before assembling new discs, soak them

in A/T fluid for at least 15 minutes.

5A-116 Automatic Transmission/Transaxle:

3) Using special tool and hydraulic press (1), compress

direct clutch piston return spring (3) and remove
retaining return spring ring (2).

Special tool
(A): 09926–98310

CAUTION

!

Be careful when applying pressure, for
overpressure will cause plate section of
piston return spring to deform.

4) Remove direct clutch piston return spring.
5) Install direct clutch cylinder to center support.

Remove direct clutch piston by blowing air into the
second hole from the left as shown in the figure.
Also, remove direct clutch inner piston by blowing air
into hole at the extreme right. And then remove O-
rings from pistons.

Assembly
Assemble each component by reversing disassembly
procedure and noting the following points.
• Always use new O-ring and apply A/T fluid before

installation.

• Do not align opening in retaining ring (2) with lug of

direct clutch piston return spring at retainer.

Special tool
(A): 09926–98310

• Use care so that direct clutch piston return spring will

not fall or tilt.

CAUTION

!

Be careful when applying pressure, for
overpressure will cause plate section of
piston return spring to deform.

• Do not match opening (1) in retaining back plate ring

with cutout (2) in direct clutch cylinder.

• Install clutch backing plate with its grooved side (1)

facing the front.

• Install direct clutch assembly (1) to center support (2)

and with compressed air (400 – 800 kPa, 4 – 8 kg/
cm

2

, 57 – 113 psi) applied to oil hole (3), measure

stroke of direct clutch piston as shown in the figure.
If it is not within standard range, select another plate
with suitable thickness from the list below and replace
it.

Direct clutch piston standard stroke
0.90 – 1.30 mm (0.035 – 0.051 in.)

Direct Clutch Inspection

S5JB0A5106082

• Measure inside diameter of direct clutch cylinder

bushing. If inside diameter exceeds limit, replace
direct clutch cylinder.

Direct clutch cylinder bushing inside diameter
standard
23.062 – 23.088 mm (0.9080 – 0.9090 in.)

Direct Clutch Piston Return Spring
• Measure free length.

Standard free length of direct clutch piston return
spring
24.25 mm (0.955 in.)

Direct Clutch Piston
• Shake piston to check that ball is not stuck.
• Apply air pressure and check that there is no leakage.

Clutch Disc and Plate
Check that sliding surface of discs and plate are not
worn or burnt. if necessary, replace them.

NOTE

• If disc lining is exfoliated, discolored or

worn hardly, replace all discs.

• If only a part of printed numbers is

corroded, replace all discs.

• Before assembling new discs, soak them
