1 - ARBOR PRESS 2 - SPECIAL TOOL C-4171 3 - SPECIAL TOOL 6052 4 - REAR CARRIER - Install rear carrier front bearing cone.
- Check output bearing preload. Output bearing preload must be checked and adjusted if any of the following items have been replaced:
- Output shaft (rear carrier assembly)
- Output shaft bearings
- Transmission case
- PRELOAD CHECK/SHIM SELECTION: Install rear output shaft bearing cone and Support Plate 6618 A.
- Install Support Plate 6618 A. Lightly tighten retaining screws. Screws should be below the plate surface, but do not snug screws.
- Turn case over on arbor press so that the plate is resting on the press base. CAUTION: The output shaft will extend through the hole of Support Plate 6618 A. Ensure your press table has clearance for the output shaft.
- Install shim on output shaft. Apply small amount of petrolatum onto the shim to hold it in place. Use the original shim as a starting point. If original shim is not available, use the thickest shim available.
- Install output shaft/rear carrier into rear bearing. The shaft must be pressed into position. Use special tool Bearing Installer MD-998911 (Disc) Extension handle C- 4171 and C4171-2 (Handle) to press shaft into rear bearing.
- Do not reuse old output shaft nut because the removed stake weakens the nut flange. Using special Wrench 6497 and Wrench socket 6498-A, install new output shaft nut. Do not reuse old output shaft nut. Tighten new output shaft nut to 271 N.m (200 ft. lbs.).
- Check the turning torque of the output shaft. The shaft should have 1 to 8 in. lbs. of turning torque. If the turning torque is higher than 8 in. lbs, install a thicker shim. If turning torque is less than 1 in. lb, install a thinner shim. Make sure there is no end play.
- The new nut must be staked after the correct turning torque is obtained. Use special Staking Tool 6639 to stake output shaft nut. CAUTION: Failure to stake nut could allow the nut to back-off during use.

If necessary, fasten the 5058A bar to the bellhousing flange with any combination of locking pliers and bolts to center the tool properly. - Compress 2/4 clutch just enough to facilitate snap ring installation.
1 - DIAL INDICATOR 2 - HOOK TOOL 3 - DIAL INDICATOR TIP TOOL 6268 - Measure 2/4 clutch clearance:
Set up dial indicator. Press down clutch pack with finger and zero dial indicator. Record measurement in four (4) places and take average reading. The 2/4 clutch pack clearance is 0.76 to 2.64 mm (0.030 to 0.104 inch).
If not within specifications, the clutch is not assembled properly or is excessively worn. There is no adjustment for the 2/4 clutch clearance.
1 - #7 BEARING 2 - REAR SUN GEAR - Install the #7 needle bearing to the rear sun gear. The number 7 needle bearing has three anti-reversal tabs and is common with the number 5 and number 2 position. The orientation should allow the bearing to seat flat against the rear sun gear. A small amount of petrolatum can be used to hold the bearing to the rear sun gear.

- Select the thinnest #4 thrust plate thickness.
- Install #4 thrust plate using petrolatum to hold into position.
- Install input clutch assembly. Ensure the input clutch assembly is completely seated by viewing position through input speed sensor hole. If the speed sensor tone wheel is not centered in the opening, the input clutch assembly is not seated properly.
- Remove the oil pump o-ring and install oil pump and gasket to transmission. Tighten the oil pump bolts to 30 N.m (265 in. lbs.). Use screw-in dowels or phillips-head screwdrivers to align pump to case. Be sure to reinstall O-ring on oil pump after selecting the proper No. 4 thrust plate.
- Measure the input shaft end play with the transmission in the vertical position. This will ensure that the measurement will be accurate.
- Set up and measure endplay using End Play Set 8266 and Dial Indicator Set C3339.
- Measure input shaft end play. Input shaft end play must be 0.127 to 0.635 mm (0.005 to 0.025 inch). For example, if end play reading is 0.055 inch, select No. 4 Thrust Plate which is 0.071 to 0.074 thick. This should provide an input shaft end play reading of 0.020 inch, which is within specifications.
- Remove oil pump, gasket, and input clutch assembly to gain access to and install proper #4 thrust plate.
1 - INPUT CLUTCH ASSEMBLY - Install #1 caged needle bearing.
1 - #1 CAGED NEEDLE BEARING 2 - NOTE: TANGED SIDE OUT - Install input clutch assembly with proper thrust plate.

Torque the speed sensor bolts to 9 N.m (80 in. lbs.).
1 - TOOL 8266-8 2 - TOOL 8266-2 3 - TOOL C-3339 - As a final check of the transmission, measure the input shaft end play. This will indicate when a #4 thrust plate change is required. The #4 thrust plate is located behind the overdrive clutch hub. Attach a dial indicator to transmission bell housing with its plunger seated against end of input shaft. Move input shaft in and out to obtain end play reading. Input shaft end play must be 0.127 to 0.635 mm (0.005 to 0.025 inch).
If not within specifications, make the necessary thrust plate adjustment.
