Transaxle Reassembly

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
NOTE: Coat all oil seal rings, clutch discs, clutch plates, rotating parts and sliding surfaces with ATF prior to reassembly. All gaskets and rubber "O" rings should be replaced. Ensure ends of snap rings are not aligned with cutouts of drum. Check thrust bearings and races for wear or damage. Use petroleum jelly to secure parts in place. Clutch discs should be soaked in ATF for at least 15 minutes before installation.
NOTE: For thrust bearing and race locations, refer to illustration. See Fig 7. For component dimensions, see THRUST BEARING & RACE SPECIFICATIONS  table.
  1. Install 4 NEW "O" rings and 4 screw plugs to transaxle rear cover. See Figure. Install 3 seal rings to transaxle rear cover. Using vernier calipers, measure O/D brake piston return spring free length with spring mounted to spring seat. Free length should be .704" (17.88 mm). Replace springs as necessary.
  2. Coat 2 NEW "O" rings with ATF and install onto O/D brake piston. Coat O/D brake piston with ATF and install onto transaxle rear cover. Use care not to damage "O" rings.
  3. CAUTION: In the following step, do not compress piston return spring more than .079" (2.00 mm) past snap ring groove. This prevents piston from becoming deformed. DO NOT expand snap ring excessively.
  4. Using appropriate adapter and press, compress O/D brake piston return springs and install snap ring to transaxle rear cover. DO NOT apply excessive force. Using appropriate adapter and a hammer, install roller bearing into transaxle case. Install NEW oil seals into transaxle case and transaxle housing (if necessary). See REASSEMBLY  under DIFFERENTIAL ASSEMBLY.
  5. Using appropriate adapter and a hammer, install thrust needle roller bearing and NEW cylindrical roller bearing. See Figure. Install differential gear apply tube, bearing lock plate and bolt to transaxle housing. See Figure. Tighten bolt to 97 INCH lbs. (11 N.m).

  8. Install 1st/reverse brake. Install 4 plates and 4 discs, starting with a plate and alternating with a disc. Install flange. Using a screwdriver, install snap ring. Measure 1st/reverse brake clutch pack clearance. Using vernier calipers, measure dimension "A" while by applying and releasing 57 psi (4 kg/cm2 ) of compressed air to transaxle case. See Fig 1. Clutch pack clearance equals dimension "A", minus flange thickness, minus snap ring thickness.
  9. Clutch pack clearance should be .032-.048" (.81-1.21 mm). Select appropriate flange to ensure clutch pack clearance is within specification.

Remove snap ring, install appropriate flange and reinstall snap ring. Recheck clutch pack clearance after flange is installed.
  10. Using appropriate adapter and press, install front tapered roller bearing to counter drive gear until bearing contacts gear. DO NOT apply excessive force. Install counter drive gear and bearing into transaxle case. See Figure.
  11. On U341E transaxle, using appropriate adapter and press, install tapered roller bearing onto counter drive gear and transaxle case. DO NOT apply excessive pressure. On both transaxles, using appropriate adapter and press, install front planetary gear to counter drive gear. See Figure.
  12. Using holding tool, socket and torque wrench, install NEW lock washer and nut onto counter drive gear. Tighten nut to 207 ft. lbs. (280 N.m). See Figure. Using socket, adapter and INCH-lb. torque wrench, measure counter drive gear tapered roller bearing rotating torque by rotating counter drive gear 60 turns per minute.

Using a screwdriver, temporarily install snap ring.
  15. Using vernier calipers, measure 2nd brake pack clearance dimension "A" while applying pressure to top plate (U340E) or flange (U341E). See Fig 2. Pack clearance equals dimension "A", minus flange thickness, minus snap ring thickness.
  16. Pack clearance should be .033-.049" (.85-1.25 mm). Select appropriate flange to ensure pack clearance is within specification. Flanges are marked in numeric order and are available in thicknesses from .118" (3.00 mm), marked with the number "1", to .142" (3.60 mm), marked with the number "4", in increments of .008" (.20 mm). Remove snap ring, install appropriate flange and reinstall snap ring. Recheck pack clearance after flange is installed.

  19. Using a screwdriver, install 2nd coast and O/D brake snap ring into transaxle case. Install 2 discs and 3 plates, starting with a plate and alternating with a disc. Using vernier calipers, measure 2nd coast and O/D brake pack clearance dimensions "A" and "B" while applying pressure to top plate. See Fig 3. Pack clearance equals dimension "A", minus dimension "B", minus selected flange thickness.
  20. Pack clearance should be .082-.098" (2.09-2.49 mm). Select appropriate flange to ensure pack clearance is within specification.
