5-Speed Manual Transaxle
This 5-speed transaxle assembly is a transmission 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 Gear
Shifting to a forward gear is accomplished through a combination of synchronizers with blocker rings controlled by sliding shift forks.
Reverse Gear
Reverse gear is not synchronized and uses a sliding idler gear arrangement.
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.
