Apply Components

There are 8 apply components used to drive or hold the planetary gearset components.


Band - Overdrive (O/D)

For component location, refer to Transmission Assembly.

The Overdrive (O/D) band holds the reverse clutch drum stationary in 4th gear and manual 2. This action causes the reverse sun gear to be held in these ranges.


Band - Low and Reverse

For component location, refer to Transmission Assembly.

The low and reverse band holds the pinion carrier in reverse. The reverse band also applies in manual 1 position to provide engine braking.


Clutch - Intermediate

For component location, refer to Transmission Assembly.

The intermediate clutch works with the intermediate One-Way Clutch (OWC) to hold the reverse sun gear stationary in 2nd gear. The intermediate clutch remains applied in 3rd and 4th gears, but does not transmit power.


Clutch - Forward

For component location, refer to Transmission Assembly.

The forward clutch couples the forward clutch cylinder and input shaft to the forward sun gear in 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears. The forward clutch is not applied in 4th gear.


Clutch - Direct

For component location, refer to Transmission Assembly.

The direct clutch couples the input shaft to the planet carrier through the stub shaft in 3rd and 4th gears.


Clutch - Reverse

For component location, refer to Transmission Assembly.

The reverse clutch couples the input shaft to the reverse sun gear, applied in reverse range only.


One-Way Clutch (OWC) - Planetary (Low)

For component location, refer to Transmission Assembly.

The planetary (low) One-Way Clutch (OWC) is a roller clutch that holds the planetary gearset in 1st gear, (D) and D ranges. During automatic coasting downshifts into 1st gear ((D) and D ranges), the planetary OWC freewheels so there is no engine braking.


One-Way Clutch (OWC) - Intermediate

For component location, refer to Transmission Assembly.

The intermediate OWC works with the intermediate friction clutch to hold the reverse clutch drum and reverse sun gear stationary in 2nd gear during acceleration. The intermediate OWC freewheels in 3rd gear and during coasting in 2nd gear, (D) and D ranges.
