Item 53: Overdrive Brake Band Assembly Note

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mercury Mountaineer and 2004 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
    NOTE: If the overdrive band is reused, it must be installed in the same position as when removed.
    NOTE: Make sure that the overdrive band apply strut is aligned with the band notch.
    NOTE: The new overdrive band is dark in color. This is a normal condition of the band. Hairline cracks in the band are also considered normal. Do not install a new band based solely on the color.
