Power from the engine goes to the torque converter. The power is then transferred through the drive shaft to the transfer gears. The transfer gears are fastened directly to the front of the transmission case. The power then goes through the transmission to the differential.
The transmission has six forward speeds and one reverse speed. NEUTRAL results in the "Number 3" clutch being engaged. At lower ground speeds, FIRST speed uses the torque converter drive. At higher ground speeds, FIRST speed uses direct drive. As the ground speed increases in FIRST speed, the lockup clutch of the torque converter engages. Engaging the lockup clutch on the torque converter provides FIRST speed with direct drive. The speeds SECOND through SIXTH uses direct drive. But, there is a short period of torque converter drive when the clutches engage in the transmission. The short period provides smooth, automatic upshifting from SECOND through SIXTH and smooth, automatic downshifting from SIXTH through SECOND.
The transmission has a combination of three rotating clutches, three stationary clutches, and four planetary units. This arrangement provides six forward speeds and one reverse speed. Clutch number 1 (5), clutch number 2 (6), and clutch number 3 (9) are the rotating clutches.
Input torque goes from the transfer gears to input shaft (1). Input shaft (1) drives the rotating housing and the transmission input arrangement. Center shaft (7) connects the input section to the output section. Center shaft (7) also carries the sun gears that drive the output section of the transmission. Center shaft (7) and input shaft (1) turn the same direction.
