Special Tools Required

- Clutch Compressor Attachment 07ZAE-PRP0100

1. Inspect the clutch piston, the clutch discs, the clutch plates, and the clutch end-plate for wear and damage A/T Clutch Inspection, and inspect the clutch wave-plate phase difference A/T Clutch Wave-Plate Phase Difference Inspection, if necessary.

2. Install the clutch piston in the clutch drum. Do not install the O-rings during inspection.






3. Install the wave spring (A) in the 1st clutch drum (B). Install the clutch flat-plate (C), then starting with the clutch disc, alternately install the clutch discs (D) (5) and the clutch wave-plates (E) (4), then install the clutch end-plate (F) with the flat side toward the top disc.






4. Install the wave spring (A) in the 2nd clutch drum (B). Install the clutch flat-plate (C), then starting with the clutch disc, alternately install the clutch discs (D) (6) and the clutch wave-plates (E) (5), then install the clutch end-plate (F) with the flat side toward the top disc.






5. Install the wave spring (A) in the 3rd clutch drum (B). Install the clutch flat-plate (C), then starting with the clutch disc, alternately install the clutch discs (D) (6) and the clutch wave-plates (E) (5), then install the clutch end-plate (F) with the flat side toward the top disc.






6. Install the wave spring (A) in the 4th clutch drum (B). Starting with the clutch wave-plate, alternately install the clutch wave-plates (C) (4) and the clutch discs (D) (4), then install the clutch end-plate (E) with the flat side toward the top disc.






7. Install the wave spring (A) in the 5th clutch drum (B). Starting with the clutch wave-plate, alternately install the clutch wave-plates (C) (4) and the clutch discs (D) (4), then install the clutch end-plate (E) with the flat side toward the top disc.

12. Press the clutch compressor attachment down with 150-160 N (15-16 kgf, 33-35 lbf) (B) using a force gauge, and read the dial indicator (C).

13. The dial indicator reads the clearance (D) between the clutch end-plate and top disc (E). Take measurements in at least three places, and use the average as the actual clearance.






14. If the clearance is out of the standard, select a new clutch end-plate from the following tables.






1ST CLUTCH END-PLATES
