Drive Range-Intermediate






The intermediate clutch is applied to allow the intermediate overrun roller clutch to hold the shell and sun gear stationary against counterclockwise rotation. Turbine torque, through the applied forward clutch is delivered to the input ring gear in a clockwise direction. Clockwise rotation of the input ring gear causes the output planet pinions to walk around the stationary sun gear in a clockwise direction. This causes the output shaft to turn in a clockwise direction at a reduction ratio of approximately 1.52 to 1.
