Input Shaft

Geartrain

Power is transmitted from the torque converter to the planetary gearsets through the input shaft. Bands and clutches are used to hold and drive certain combinations of gearsets. This results in 5 forward ratios and 1 reverse ratio, which are transmitted to the output shaft and differential.






Input Shaft

For component location, refer to Transmission Transmission Assembly.

- The radial positioning of the input shaft is controlled by 2 bushings in the stator support.
- Axial positioning of the input shaft is controlled by the splines in the converter turbine hub and the retaining ring in the Overdrive (O/D) planetary carrier.
