When the outer races of reduction gear bearing
and differential side bearing are removed, meas-
ure the mounting bore diameters of outer race in
the converter housing and transmission case,
and replace the housing case or the CVT assem-
bly if the standard value is not satisfied. The
standard values are listed in "SERVICE SPECIFI-
CATIONS."

CAUTION

• Do not re-use the reverse brake piston.

When installing the snap ring, make sure that
the joint falls in the area A in the diagram.

6. Using a flat blade screwdriver etc., install the

snap-ring on the transmission case, and measure
clearance between the snap ring and retaining
plate. Select the snap ring so as to obtain
standard value of the clearance. For selection of
the snap ring, refer to "SERVICE
SPECIFICATIONS."

Standard value: 1.2

− 1.5 mm

(For reverse brake clearance)

CAUTION

• Apply vaseline when installing the needle

bearing.

•

AK502258

Be careful to attach the needle bearing in
right direction.

7. Install the needle bearing on the reverse brake

piston. Refer to A in the "IDENTIFICATION OF
NEEDLE BEARINGS" for right direction.

8. Install the planet carrier on the reverse brake.

CAUTION

• Apply vaseline when installing the needle

bearing.

•

(1) Measure the distance M1 from the oil pump

cover mounting surface of the transmission
case to the needle bearing mounting surface
of the forward clutch drum.

AK502261

M2

AC

(2) Measure the distance M2 from the edge of oil

pump cover to the mounting surface on the
transmission case.

(3) Calculate the total axial play by the following

expression. Select the needle bearing so that
the total axial play meets its standard value.

Total axial play = M1

− M2 − bearing thick-

ness
Standard value: 0.25

− 0.55 mm

(For total axial play)
