5. Lube the seal and position it on the expander cone.

Important

Lube seal with Saturn Transaxle Fluid before installation.

6. Use the seal pusher SA9143T (1) to install seal.
7. Place the servo piston on seal sizer Holding Base SA9137T-4 (2).
8. Size the seal by placing the SA9137T-3 (1) over the piston, with large the internal diameter down, until it bottoms out on the work table.

9. Lube the inside diameter of the Forward/Rev fork and slide the Forward/Rev fork onto the Forward/Reverse Dog clutch sleeve.

Important

Prior to installing the servo piston, thoroughly lube the following components with Saturn Transaxle Fluid:

• The servo piston shaft
• The case bore where the piston will be installed




10. Insert the Forward/Rev servo piston into the bore and line up fork and servo shaft as servo is pushed in. Before pushing the servo all the way in, align bolt hole in servo with hole in fork. The chamfered hole should face towards the case opening.
11. Clean the bolt threads and apply Loctite 242® Threadlocker P/N 21485277, or equivalent on the bolt threads.
12. Install the fork to servo piston bolt and tighten.
