This 5-speed transaxle assembly is a transaxle of constant-mesh design.
Combined in the assembly are:
• | The differential output |
| The basic components of the 5-speed transaxle assembly units are: |
• | The ring gear and differential assembly |
Forward/Reverse Gear
Shifting to a forward/reverse gear is accomplished a combination of synchronizers with blocker rings controlled by sliding shift forks.
Differential Assembly
The differential is a conventional arrangement of gears that is supported by tapered roller bearings. The final output gear turns the ring gear and differential assembly which turns the drive axle shafts.
