ASSEMBLY
1. Temporarily install overdrive piston retainer in case. Use 3-4 bolts to secure retainer.
2. Align and start new clutch cam (2) in the transmission case. Be sure serrations on cam and in case (1) are aligned. Then tap cam into case just enough to hold it in place.
3. Verify that cam is correctly positioned before proceeding any further. Narrow ends of cam ramps should be to left when cam is viewed from front end of case.
4. Insert Adapter Tool SP-5124 (2) from Installer/Remover C-3863-A into piston retainer (1).
5. Assemble Puller Bolt SP-3701 (1) and Press Plate SP-3583-A (2).
6. Install assembled puller plate and bolt (1). Insert bolt through cam, case and adapter tool. Be sure plate is seated squarely on cam (2).
7. Hold puller plate and bolt in place and install puller nut SP-3701 (4) on puller bolt.
8. Tighten puller nut (2) to press clutch cam into case. Be sure cam is pressed into case evenly and does not become cocked.
9. Remove clutch cam installer tools.
10. Stake case in 14 places around clutch cam to help secure cam in case. Use blunt punch or chisel to stake case.
11. Remove piston retainer from case. Cover retainer with plastic sheeting, or paper to keep it dust free.
12. Clean case and cam thoroughly. Be sure any chips/shavings generated during cam installation are removed from case.
13. Install new gasket (1) at rear of transmission case. Use petroleum jelly to hold gasket in place. Be sure to align governor feed holes in gasket with feed passages in case (2). Also install gasket before overdrive piston retainer. Center hole in gasket is smaller than retainer and cannot be installed over retainer.
14. Position overdrive piston retainer (1) on transmission case and align bolt holes in retainer (1), gasket (2), and case. Then install and tighten retainer bolts (3) to 17 Nm (13 ft. lbs.) torque.
15. Install new seals on overdrive piston.
16. Stand transmission case upright on bellhousing.
17. Position Guide Ring 8114-1 on outer edge of overdrive piston retainer.
18. Position Seal Guide 8114-3 on inner edge of overdrive piston retainer.
19. Install overdrive piston in overdrive piston retainer by: aligning locating lugs on overdrive piston to the two mating holes in retainer.
a. Aligning locating lugs on overdrive piston to the two mating holes in retainer.
b. Lubricate overdrive piston seals with Mopar(R) Door Ease, or equivalent.
c. Install piston over Seal Guide 8114-3 and inside Guide Ring 8114-1.
d. Push overdrive piston into position in retainer.
e. Verify that the locating lugs entered the lug bores in the retainer.
