2. Remove the propeller shaft. Refer to One-Piece Propeller Shaft Replacement or Two-Piece Propeller Shaft Replacement in Propeller Shaft.
3. Remove the torque arm at the transmission. Refer to Torque Arm Replacement in Rear Suspension.
4. Install a transmission jack and remove the transmission support. Refer to Transmission Support Replacement in Frame and Underbody.
5. Remove the catalytic converter heat shield. Refer to Converter Heat Shield Replacement in Engine Exhaust.
6. Lower the transmission.
7. Remove the oil pan bolt below and to the left of the 2-4 servo cover.
8. Install the J 29714-A to the oil pan rail.



9. Tighten the bolt on the J 29714-A to compress the servo cover.



10. Remove the servo cover retaining ring.
11. Loosen the bolt on the J 29714-A to release tension on the servo cover.



12. Remove the servo cover and O-ring seal. If the cover is hung up on the seal, use a 90° pick (2) to pull and stretch the seal (1) out of the groove. Cut and remove the O-ring seal before removing the cover.



13. Remove the 2-4 servo from the transmission.
14. Inspect the 4th apply piston, 2-4 servo converter, 2nd apply piston, and the servo piston inner housing for the following defects:

•

Cracks

•

Scoring

•	Burrs and nicks

1. Install new seals on the servo pistons and the servo cover.



2. Install the 2-4 servo to the transmission.

15. Lower the vehicle.
16. Check the transmission fluid level.

Important: It is recommended that the transmission adaptive pressure (TAP) information be reset.

Resetting the TAP values using a scan tool will erase all learned values in all cells. As a result, the ECM, PCM or TCM will need to relearn the TAP values. Transmission performance may be affected as new TAP values are learned,
17. Reset the TAP values. Refer to Adapt Function .
