(1) Wave Spring

Former 246-8800 Wave Springs should be replaced during scheduled transmission rebuilds or if a clutch failure is experienced. Former 246-8800 Wave Springs should also be replaced if the minimal clutch stack height does not meet the minimal clutch stack thickness. Refer to Specifications, RENR8481, "Transmission" for more information.

Note: New 442-6257 Wave Springs now have a yellow stripe for clear visual detection as shown in Illustration 1. The 442-6257 Wave Springs no longer need replaced during scheduled transmission rebuilds or after a clutch failure.
