F13-5/F15-5/F17-5 - Manual Transmission

Transmission System Description and Operation

This 5-speed transmission assembly is a transmission of constant mesh design.

Combined in the assembly are:

* All forward gears

* The reverse gear

* The differential output

The basic components of the five-speed transmission assembly units are the:

* Transmission case

* Input shaft

* Input shaft gears

* Output shaft

* Output shaft gears

* 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

In reverse shifting, the interim lever roller operations the assist lever, and then the fifth engaging piece is forwarded by the assist lever.

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.
