plate and plate gasket.
STEP 12. On top of oil transfer plate install your stock
spacer support plate (The order of the plates must be
correct!) Install the seven support plate bolts finger
tight. Align separator plate bolts with transmission case
bolt holes as well as possible. Tighten the seven
support plate bolts to 100 in.-Ibs.
“S” link model (See Fig. 9): Rotate the range inner
selector lever noting clearance with bolt ‘A’ (See Fig. 8)
If range selector inner lever contacts bolt “A” head or
there is not a 1/16" clearance between the two, mark
that area of bolt head. Remove bolt & grind or file angle
flat at that portion of bolt head. Reinstall bolt and check
clearance again. Failure to provide clearance may keep
transmission shifter from fully shifting or cause a lock up
between drive and second. Failure to provide detent roller
engagement into range selector inner lever may prevent
transmission from shifting into park.
STEP 13. Remove center pan bolt. Guide valve body into
position. Engage manual valve linkage in selector lever.
“S” link can only be installed one way. Offset linkage must
be installed with the link in the forward position. (See
Fig. 9) Install valve body bolts finger tight. Install detent
roller spring so it engages range selector inner lever.
Tighten valve body bolts to 100 !n.-Ibs. Make sure range
selector inner lever operates freely at this point with
positive indexing in each gear.
“S” link model (See Fig. 9): Rotate range selector
inner lever all the way forward and check to see that
bolt ‘B’ does not prevent range selector inner lever
from going into last detent slot.(See Fig. 8) If bolt head
‘B’ prevents this action, rotate range selector inner
lever out of the way. Remove bolt and grind or file a
small amount off top of bolt head ‘B’. Reinstall bolt ‘B’
and check again.
STEP 14. Connect detent control valve lever to detent cable
wire. Position lever on body. Install pivot clip. (See Fig. 3)
if pivot clip contacts spacer support plate and does not
fully seat into slot on detent control lever, trim pivot clip
until just clears support plate. Detent control lever must
pivot freely for correct operation. If detent control valve
lever contacts bolt ‘C’ (See Fig. 3), Remove lever and file
or grind clearance. Tighten screws securely.
STEP 15. Clean pan in solvent and scrape any excess
gasket material off the pan and case surface. Install pan
with new gasket. Install pan bolts and tighten to 13 ft.
lbs. Tighten drain plug, if so equipped.
STEP 16. Heavy Duty only: Use an awl or small screwdriver
to dislodge the accumulator snap ring located on the right
side of the transmission case. (See Fig. 10) Pry the snap
ring out with a screwdriver. There is some spring loading
