Select the adjustment shims, referring to Bearing Preload.2. If the drive plates or 2-4 brake band are replaced with new ones, soak the new part in ATF for at least two hours before installation.3. Before assembly, apply ATF to all seal rings, rotating parts, O-rings, and sliding parts.4. All O-rings, seals, and gaskets must be replaced with the new ones included in the overhaul kit.5. Use petroleum jelly, not grease, when assembling again.6. When it is necessary to replace a bushing, replace the subassembly that includes that bushing.7. Assemble the housing within 10 minutes after applying sealant, and allow it to cure for at least 30 minutes after assembly before filling the transaxle with ATF.Warning Although the stand has a self-locking brake system, there is a possibility that the brake may not hold when the transaxle is held in a lopsided position on the stand. This would cause the transaxle to turn suddenly, causing serious injury. Never keep the transaxle tilted to one side. Always hold the rotating handle firmly when turning the transaxle.AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE (SERVICE) [GF4AX-EL]05-17B6705AssemblyBearing and race locationsNote The bearing and race at locations 2, 3, 4, 6, and 7 are one-piece units.Outer diameter of bearing and racew6u517afl1 2 3 4 5 6 7Bearing (mm {in}) 86.1 {3.39} 56.1 {2.21} 62.15 {2.447} 62.15 {2.45} 72.0 {2.83} 56.1 {2.21} 71.0 {2.80}Race (mm {in}) 88.0 {3.46} 72.0 {2.83} 57.0 {2.24} 72.0 {2.83}05-17B68AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE (SERVICE) [GF4AX-EL]Components.Nm {kgfcm, inlbf}27.434.3 Nm {2.793.5 kgfm, 20.225.3 ftlbf}7.910.7{80110, 7095}98754310151614131112SSTR6124RRRRRSSTSSTSST4.05.8{4060, 3552}10.813.7 {110140, 96121}66654bue517zaa0011 Converter housing2 Baffle plate3 O-rings4 Oil seals5 Adjustment shim6 Bearing races7 Bearing cover component8 Output gear9 Idler gear10 Bearing housing11 Baffle plate12 Roll pin13 Orifice check valve14 Orifice check spring15 2-3 accumulator16 Front differentialAUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE (SERVICE) [GF4AX-EL]05-17B6905.bue517zab0621 Baffle plate2 Parking pawl3 Parking assist lever4 Actuator support5 Manual shaft and manual plate6 Detent spring7 Low and reverse brake8 Output shell9 Transaxle case05-17B70AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE (SERVICE) [GF4AX-EL].bue517zab0631 Turbine shaft2 3-4 clutch3 Internal gear4 Low and reverse brake5 Retaining plate6 Snap ring7 Friction plate8 One-way clutch 2 and carrier hub component9 Band servo10 Anchor strut and shaft11 2-4 brake band12 Small sun gear and one-way clutch 113 Clutch component14 Snap ring15 Piston stemAUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE (SERVICE) [GF4AX-EL]05-17B7105.bue517zab0641 Oil pump2 Control valve body3 Coupler component4 Control valve body cover5 Oil strainer6 Oil pan7 Oil pipe8 TR switch9 Input/turbine speed sensor10 Transfer11 Oil dipstick and oil filler tube12 Oil pump shaft13 Torque converter05-17B72AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE (SERVICE) [GF4AX-EL]Assembly procedure1.

Using the SST, assemble the selected adjustment shim in between the spacer and bearing race as shown in the figure.31. Align the alignment mark of the bearing cap, assemble the bearing cap, and tighten the bolt temporarily.32. Set the dial gauge with the measuring probe attached perpendicularly to the end of one of the ring gear teeth.33. Secure the drive pinion and measure the backlash from when the ring gear is moved.StandardBacklash: 0.090.11 mm {0.00350.0043 in}Caution Perform the backlash measurement on the ring gear circumference at four points.34. If the backlash is not within the specified range above, adjust it by sliding the ring gear in the shaft direction.Note Slide the ring gear in the shaft direction by replacing the adjustment shim. If the right side adjustment shim is replaced with one that is 0.05 mm {0.002 in} thicker, the left side shim must be replaced with one that is 0.05 mm {0.002 in} thinner.35.

Perform the drive pinion and ring gear tooth contact inspection.(1) Apply tooth marking compound evenly to both surfaces of the ring gear.(2) Rotate the ring gear back and forth several times.(3) Inspect for gear tooth contact at four points on the ring gear circumference and verify that the gear tooth contact indicated by tooth marking compound is as indicated in the figure. If the tooth contact points are normal, wipe off the marking compound. If the tooth contact points are not normal, adjust the pinion height, then adjust the backlash.buj0517a374buj0517a375buj0517a369buj0517a37605-17B88AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE (SERVICE) [GF4AX-EL](4) If toe and flank contact is indicated as shown in the figure, replace the drive pinion spacer with a thinner one to maintain the drive pinion further away.
