  2. Check clutch retainer lug grooves and band mating surface for wear. Ensure check ball in retainer moves freely. Check seals for wear, hardness or cracking. Check spring(s), retainer and snap ring for distortion.
  3. Ensure check ball in piston moves freely. Check seal ring surfaces in clutch retainer for nicks and scratches. Check seals for wear, hardness or cracking.
  4. Check interlocking seal rings on input shaft for wear or broken locks. Ensure rings turn freely in grooves. DO NOT remove rings unless replacement is required.
