A/T Housing And Shaft Assembly Removal

A/T Housing and Shaft Assembly Removal

NOTE: The illustration shows the 4WD transmission; the 2WD does not have the transfer mechanism.

1. Remove the ATF feed pipe (A) from the idler gear shaft, and the ATF lubrication pipe (B) from the transmission housing.





2. Remove the shift solenoid valve cover (C), the dowel pins (D), and the gasket (E).

3. Disconnect the connectors from shift solenoid valves, and remove the solenoid wire harness (F).

4. Remove the input shaft (mainshaft) speed sensor (G) with the O-ring, the output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor (H) with the O-ring, and the sensor washer (I).

5. Remove the transmission housing mounting bolts (J) (K24Z6 engine 2WD: 19 bolts, except K24Z6 engine 2WD: 20 bolts), the transmission hanger (K), and the harness clamp brackets (L) (K24Z1 engine).

6. Align the spring pin (A) on the selector control shaft (B) with the transmission housing groove (C) by turning the control shaft with the control lever.

NOTE: Do not squeeze the end of the control shaft tips together when turning the selector control shaft.





7. While expanding the snap ring of the secondary shaft bearing using the snap ring pliers, then lift the transmission housing. Release the snap ring pliers and remove the transmission housing.

8. Remove the countershaft reverse gear and the needle bearing.

9. Remove the lock bolt securing the reverse shift fork, then remove the reverse shift fork with the reverse selector together.

10. Remove the selector control lever from the selector control shaft.

11. Unhook the detent spring (A) from the detent arm (B).






12. Remove the selector control shaft (A) from the torque converter housing.





13. Turn the detent arm (B) away from the countershaft (C).

14. Remove the mainshaft subassembly (A), countershaft subassembly (B), and secondary shaft subassembly (C) together. Do not bump the countershaft on the baffle plate (D).





15. Remove the baffle plate. Replace the baffle plate with new one (E) if the old baffle plate (F) was installed.

16. Remove the differential assembly.

17. 4WD: Remove the transfer assembly.
