• Depress the seal plate only enough to remove the snap ring. Overpressing will damage the seal

plate assembly edges.

2. Compress the seal plate.
3. Remove the snap ring.
4. Remove the SST, then remove the seal plate and

spring and retainer component.

Forward Clutch Piston Disassembly Note

1. Set the forward clutch drum and turbine shaft onto the oil pump.
2. Remove the forward clutch piston by applying

compressed air through the fluid passage.

Air pressure

392 kPa {4.0 kgf/cm

2

, 57 psi} max.

Assembly Procedure

1. Measure the facing thickness in three places, and calculate the average value.

Standard

1.60 mm {0.063 in}

Minimum

1.45 mm {0.057 in}

• If not within the specification, replace the drive plates.

2. Measure the spring free length.

Spring free length

Standard: 17.2 mm {0.677 in}
Minimum: 15.2 mm {0.598 in}

• If not within the specification, replace the

spring and retainer component.

3. Verify that there is airflow when applying

compressed air through the fluid passage.

Air pressure

392 kPa {4.0 kgf/cm

2

, 57 psi} max.

4. Replace the forward clutch drum and turbine shaft

if damaged or malfunctioning.

Caution

• Installing the forward clutch piston may

damage its seal. Carefully install the
forward clutch piston by pushing evenly
around the circumference.

5. Apply ATF to the circumference of the forward

clutch piston seal, and install the piston into the
forward clutch drum and turbine shaft.

6. Install the spring and retainer component.

7. Apply ATF to the seal plate, and install it onto the

forward clutch drum.

8. Install the SST to the forward clutch drum and

turbine shaft as shown.

Caution

• Depress the seal plate only enough to

remove the snap ring. Overpressing will
damage the seal plate assembly edges.

9. Compress the seal plate.

10. Install the snap ring.
11. Remove the SST.
12. Install the drive and driven plates in the following

order.
Driven—Drive—Driven—Drive—Driven—Drive—
Driven—Drive

13. Install the retaining plate.

14. Install the snap ring.
15. Measure the forward clutch clearance.

(1) Install the forward clutch in the oil pump, and

set the dial gauge.

(2) Secure the forward clutch by lightly pressing

down with a press or similar tool.

(3) Apply compressed air to the part indicated in

the figure and let the forward clutch piston
stroke three times.

Air pressure

392—441 kPa {4.0—4.5 kgf/cm

2

, 57—63 psi}

(4) Apply compressed air and operate the

forward clutch piston. Read the value when
the indicator of the dial gauge stops.

(5) Release the compressed air and read the dial

gauge when the forward clutch piston is not
operating.

(6) Calculate the forward clutch clearance

according to the following formula:
Step (4) value— Step (5) value= Forward clutch clearance.

(7) Measure the clearances at four locations (90

° apart) by following the steps (3) to (6).

Verify that the average value is within the
specification below:

Forward clutch clearance

1.50—1.80 mm {0.059—0.071 in}

• If not as specified, remove the snap ring

and measure its thickness.

(8) Add the thickness to the average value

calculated in step (7), and select the snap ring
whose range includes the value.
