Reverse Input Clutch: Reassembly

Lubricate piston seals with ATF. Install seals on piston with seal lips facing away from hub. Install piston in clutch housing. Use small feeler gauge to position seals. Install spring assembly with large opening toward piston.
Using clutch spring compressor, compress spring assembly. Install retaining ring. Remove spring compressor.
CAUTION: Ensure correct retaining ring is used. Ensure reverse input clutch retaining ring is not interchanged with low-reverse retaining ring.
Install Belleville plate. Note number of clutch plates to be installed. Install clutch plates. Install backing plate with chamfered side upward. Install retaining ring. Clearance must be checked to determine proper selective backing plate usage. Apply even pressure to backing plate using fingers.
DO NOT apply excessive pressure or Belleville plate will be distorted, resulting in inaccurate measurement. Using feeler gauge, measure clearance between retaining ring and backing plate. Clearance should be 040-.076" (1.02-1.94 mm). Select backing plate to obtain correct clearance. See BACKING PLATE SPECIFICATIONS .
