INSPECT PACK CLEARANCE OF DIRECT CLUTCH
Place the direct clutch assembly onto the O/D support assembly.
Using SST and a dial indicator, measure the direct clutch pack clearance while applying and releasing compressed air (186 to 206 kPa (1.9 to 2.1 kgf/cm2, 27 to 30 psi)).
| Pack clearance |
|---|
| 0.40 to 0.70 mm (0.016 to 0.028 in.) |
If the pack clearance is not as specified, parts may have been assembled incorrectly. Check and reassemble again.
Tech Tips
If the pack clearance is still not as specified, select another flange.
There are 8 different flange thicknesses.
| Standard flange thickness | ||||||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

INSPECT DIRECT CLUTCH FLANGE
Replace all discs if one of the following problems is present: 1) a disc, plate or flange is worn or burnt, 2) the lining of a disc is peeled off or discolored, or 3) grooves or printed numbers have even a little bit of damage.
Note
Before assembling new discs, soak them in ATF for at least 15 minutes.
INSPECT DIRECT CLUTCH RETURN SPRING
Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the spring together with the spring seat.
| Standard free length |
|---|
| 21.32 mm (0.839 in.) |
If the length is not as specified, replace the spring.
INSPECT DIRECT CLUTCH PISTON
Check that the check ball is free by shaking the piston.
Check that the valve does not have leaks by applying low-pressure compressed air.
INSPECT DIRECT CLUTCH DRUM
Using a dial indicator, measure the inside diameter of the clutch drum bush.
| Maximum inside diameter |
|---|
| 53.97 mm (2.1248 in.) |
If the inside diameter is greater than the maximum, replace the clutch drum.
