A/T 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Clutch Reassembly

Special Tools Required
- Clutch Spring Compressor Set 07LAE-PX40000

NOTE: Coat all parts with ATF during reassembly.

1. Soak the clutch discs thoroughly in ATF for at least 30 minutes.

2. Install a new O-ring (A) on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd clutch pistons (B), and install a new O-ring (C) on the clutch drums (D).






3. Install the clutch piston (A) in the clutch drum (B). Apply pressure and rotate to ensure proper seating. Lubricate the clutch piston O-ring with ATF before installing. Do not pinch the O-ring by installing the clutch piston with too much force.






4. Set the return spring (A) and the spring retainer (B) on the clutch piston, and position the snap ring (C) on the spring retainer.






5. Install the clutch spring compressor set.






6. Set the clutch spring compressor attachment (A) on the spring retainer (B), and over the clutch return spring end, so the clutch spring compressor attachment works on the clutch return spring (C).

NOTE: Coat the circumference of the spring retainer and areas where the spring retainer contacts the clutch piston with ATF before installation.





7. Check the placement of the clutch spring compressor attachment. If either end of the clutch spring compressor attachment is not over the clutch return spring end, reset the clutch spring compressor attachment over the return spring end.

8. Compress the return spring carefully until the snap ring can be installed. Check that the spring retainer (A) is properly installed on the clutch hub (B). If improperly installed, change the position of the spring compressor attachment and the spring retainer.

NOTE: Insert the spring retainer so it can be adjusted (center of tolerance) to prevent damaging the spring retainer oil seal.






9. Install the snap ring using snap ring pliers.





10. Remove the clutch spring compressor set.

11. Check that the spring retainer oil seal (A) is properly seated in the clutch piston (B).





12. If improperly seated, remove the spring retainer, and check the oil seal. If the oil seal is worn, damaged, or peeling, replace the spring retainer, and reinstall the new retainer in the clutch piston.

13. 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 wave-plates (E) (4). Install the clutch end-plate (F) with the flat side toward the top disc.






14. 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 wave-plates (E) (5). Install the clutch end-plate (F) with the flat side toward the top disc.






15. 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 wave-plates (E) (5). Install the clutch end-plate (F) with the flat side toward the top disc.






16. Install the snap ring using a screwdriver to secure the clutch end-plate.





17. Check that the clutch piston moves by applying air pressure into fluid passage.
