One-Way Clutch - Overdrive

For component location, refer to Transmission .

The overdrive one-way clutch is a sprag-type one-way clutch that connects the input shaft to the center shaft during drive operation.

The overdrive one-way clutch transmits torque in REVERSE, 1st, 3rd and 4th gears, as well as in manual 1st, manual 3rd and manual 4th gears.

• The input shaft connects through the overdrive planetary carrier to the inner race.
• The outer race is part of the center shaft.
• The inner race contacts the assembly of sprags, and wedges them between the inner and outer races.
• The wedging action causes the input shaft and center shaft to be connected.
