1. Adjust total end play. Total end play "T 1 ": 0.25 - 0.55 mm (0.0098 - 0.0217 in) With original needle bearing installed, place J34291-1 (bridge), J34291-2 (legs) and the J34291-5 (gauging cylinder) onto oil pump. The long ends of legs should be placed firmly on machined surface of oil pump assembly, and gauging cylinder should rest on top of the needle bearing. Lock gauging cylinder in place with set screw. Install J34291-23 (gauging plunger) into gauging cylinder. With original bearing race installed inside reverse clutch drum, place shim selecting gauge with its legs on machined surface of transmission case (no gasket) and allow gauging plunger to rest on bearing race. Lock gauging plunger in place with set screw. Remove Tool and use feeler gauge to measure gap between gauging cylinder and gauging plunger. This measurement should give exact total end play. Total end play "T 1 ": 0.25 - 0.55 mm (0.0098 - 0.0217 in) If end play is out of specification, decrease or increase thickness of oil pump cover bearing race as necessary. Available oil pump cover bearing race: Refer to «TOTAL END PLAY»(ref-207294-S26654465912005120100000) .
2. Adjust reverse clutch drum end play. Reverse clutch drum end play "T 2 ": 0.55 - 0.90 mm (0.0217 - 0.0354 in) Place J34291-1 (bridge), J34291-2 (legs) and J34291-5 (gauging cylinder) on machined surface of transmission case (no gasket) and allow gauging cylinder to rest on front thrust surface of reverse clutch drum. Lock cylinder in place with set screw. Install J34291-23 (gauging plunger) into gauging cylinder. With original thrust washer installed on oil pump, place shim setting gauge legs onto machined surface of oil pump assembly and allow gauging plunger to rest on thrust washer. Lock plunger in place with set screw. Use feeler gauge to measure gap between gauging plunger and gauging cylinder. This measurement should give you exact reverse clutch drum and play. Reverse clutch drum end play "T 2 ": 0.55 - 0.90 mm (0.0217 - 0.0354 in) If end play is out of specification, decrease or increase thickness of oil pump thrust washer as necessary. Available oil pump thrust washer: Refer to «REVERSE CLUTCH DRUM END PLAY»(ref-207294-S32839148622005120100000) .

1. Place transmission case into horizontal position.
2. Install brake band and band strut. Install band strut on brake band. Apply petroleum jelly to band strut. Place brake band around reverse clutch drum, and insert band strut into end of band servo piston stem. Install anchor end pin on transmission case. Then, tighten anchor end pin just enough so that reverse clutch drum (clutch pack) will not tilt forward.
3. Install input shaft on transmission case. Pay attention to its direction - O-ring groove side faces front.
4. Install gasket on transmission case.
5. Install oil pump assembly. Install needle bearing on oil pump assembly. Apply petroleum jelly to the needle bearing. Install selected thrust washer on oil pump assembly. Apply petroleum jelly to thrust washer. Carefully install seal rings into grooves and press them into the petroleum jelly so that they are a tight fit. Install O-ring on oil pump assembly. Apply petroleum jelly to O-ring. Apply petroleum jelly to mating surface of transmission case and oil pump assembly. Install oil pump assembly. Install two converter housing securing bolts in bolt holes in oil pump assembly as guides. Insert oil pump assembly to the specified position in transmission.
6. Install O-ring on input shaft. Apply ATF to O-rings.
7. Install converter housing. Apply Genuine Anaerobic Liquid Gasket or equivalent around bolt holes in converter housing. . Do not apply too much sealant. Apply Genuine Anaerobic Liquid Gasket or equivalent to seating surfaces of bolts that secure front of converter housing. . Install converter housing on transmission case.
8. Adjust brake band. Tighten anchor end pin to specified torque. Anchor end pin: 4 - 6 N.m (0.4 - 0.6 kg-m, 35 - 52 in-lb) Back off anchor end pin two and a half turns. While holding anchor end pin, tighten lock nut.
9. Install terminal cord assembly. Install O-ring on terminal cord assembly. Apply petroleum jelly to O-ring. Compress terminal cord assembly stopper and install terminal cord assembly on transmission case.
10. Install control valve assembly. Install accumulator piston return springs B, C and D. Free length of return springs: Refer to «RETURN SPRINGS»(ref-207294-S24871243232005120100000) . Install manual valve on control valve. Apply ATF to manual valve. Install control valve assembly on transmission case. Install connector tube brackets and tighten bolts A and B. Check that terminal assembly harness does not catch. Install O-ring on oil strainer. Apply petroleum jelly to O-ring. Install oil strainer on control valve. Securely fasten terminal harness with clips.
11. Install oil pan. Attach a magnet to oil pan. Install new oil pan gasket on transmission case. Install oil pan and bracket on transmission case. Always replace oil pan bolts as they are self-sealing bolts. Before installing bolts, remove traces of sealant and oil from mating surface and thread holes. Tighten four bolts in a crisscross pattern to prevent dislocation of gasket. Tighten drain plug.
12. Install park/neutral position (PNP) switch. Check that manual shaft is in 1 position. Temporarily install PNP switch on manual shaft. Move manual shaft to N. Use a 4 mm (0.16 in) pin for this adjustment. Insert the pin straight into the manual shaft adjustment hole. Rotate PNP switch until the pin can also be inserted straight into hole in PNP switch. Tighten PNP switch fixing bolts. Remove pin from adjustment hole after adjusting PNP switch.
13. Install torque converter. Pour ATF into torque converter. Approximately 2 liters (2-1/8 US qt, 1-3/4 Imp qt) of fluid are required for a new torque converter. When reusing old torque converter, add the same amount of fluid as was drained. Install torque converter while aligning notches and oil pump. Measure distance A to check that torque converter is in proper position. Distance "A": 26.0 mm (1.024 in) or more
