1st and 2nd Clutch Shaft Installed Height Measurement
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Install the following components into the torque converter housing (150):
- The 1st/2nd clutch housing thrust bearing (750) with the rounded shoulder down
- The 1st, 2nd clutch shaft assembly (755)
- Both torque converter housing locating pins
- The torque converter housing gasket (68)
- Measure the height (a) of the 1st/2nd clutch shaft assembly (755) from the top of the torque converter housing gasket (68) to the top of the 1st/2nd clutch shaft bearing (719).
- Record the measurement. The measurement is the recorded 1st/2nd clutch shaft installed height.
- Use the following formula for selection of the correct thickness of the 1st/2nd clutch shaft shim (74):
Formula: The recorded 1st/2nd clutch shaft installed height measurement minus the 1st/2nd clutch shaft installed height specification equals the required shim thickness adjustment.
Specifications: 1st/2nd clutch shaft installed height 222.54-222.63 mm (8.761-8.765 in)
- Remove the 1st/2nd clutch shaft shim (74) from the transmission case (31).
- Measure the thickness of the shim.
- In the above formula if the recorded height was less than the specification height, add the difference to the removed shim (74).
- In the above formula if the recorded height was more than the specification height, subtract the difference from the removed shim (74).
- If the thickness of the shim is not the required thickness from the above formula, select from the table the correct thickness of shim. Refer to Shim Size Specifications .
- Install the correct 1st/2nd clutch shaft 65 mm selective shim (74) into the transmission case (31).
