For 1990-2009 cars

#### Tools Required

• | J 36850 Transjel® Transmission Assembly Lubricant

• | J 23327 Clutch Spring Compressor

• | J 37282 Interdrive Brake Piston Return Spring Compressor

Important: When installing new clutch discs in the 1st-reverse brake, the underdrive brake, the underdrive clutch, the intermediate brake, the forward clutch or the direct clutch assemblies, the new clutch discs MUST be soaked in Dexron®-III Automatic Transmission Fluid GM P/N 12346143 or equivalent, two hours prior to installation. This causes the clutch material on the discs to permeate with fluid which will aid in ease of assembly and prevent clutch overheating on first time engagement.

1. Install the 2 new seal rings onto the underdrive clutch drum support (2).
2. Apply J 36850 in order to the two new underdrive clutch drum support seal rings (3).
3. Apply J 36850 in order to the two new underdrive brake piston seals.
4. Install the underdrive brake piston (1) into the transaxle case with the cup side facing upwards.
5. Install the underdrive brake piston return spring (1) into the transaxle case.
6. Install the underdrive brake flange (2), three plates (3) and three discs (1) into the transaxle case in the following order:

• | Plate

7. Align the inner teeth of the underdrive brake discs (2).
8. Install the J 23327 with the J 37282 into the transaxle case and compress the underdrive brake piston return spring until the underdrive brake piston return spring snap ring can be installed.
9. Install the underdrive brake snap ring into the transaxle case.
10. Remove the J 37282 and theJ 23327 from the transaxle case.
11. Measure the underdrive brake assembly (1) using a J 7872 . Apply 392-785 kPa (57-114 psi) of compressed air into the underdrive brake apply passage (2).

• | Verify that the underdrive brake assembly clearance falls within 1.07-2.05 mm (0.0421-0.0807 in).

• | If the underdrive brake assembly clearance does not fall within specification, inspect the underdrive brake assembly for excessive wear.
