The output transfer gears are at the output side of the transmission. The transmission output shaft is connected to drive gear (1) by splines.
Drive gear (1) is engaged with idler gear (3). Idler gear (3) is engaged with driven gear (1). Driven gear (5) connected to shaft (7) by splines. Yoke assemblies (6) and (8) are connected to shaft (7) by splines. Yoke assembly (6) is connected to the short drive shaft that is connected to the rear differential. Yoke assembly (8) is connected to the drive shaft. The drive shaft is connected to the bearing cage and then connected to the front differential.
The flow of power in the output transfer gears goes from the transmission output shaft to drive gear (1). The power then flows from drive gear (1) to idler gear (3). The power then flows from the idler gear (3) to driven gear (5). The power then flows from the driven gear (5) to the shaft (7) .
At shaft (7), the flow of power divides. Some of the power goes from yoke assembly (6) through a drive shaft to the rear differential. Some of the power goes from yoke assembly (8) through a drive shaft and through the bearing cage to the front differential.
Shims (2) are used to adjust the end play of gear (1) .
Shims (4) are used to adjust the end play of idler gear (3) .
Output Transfer Gear Lubrication
Oil enters the output transfer gear case through a passage between the Number six carrier and the transmission output shaft. The transfer gear case is also a reservoir for the transmission circuit. All return oil goes to the bottom of the transfer gear case. The movement of the output transfer gears in the oil causes oil to be thrown on all the components.
