ISSUE:
The forward clutch piston may crack on its outside diameter, seal groove or apply wall (bottom of piston). This condition could allow internal clutch
leakage resulting in engagement concerns.
ACTION:
Use the chart for proper application if replacement of the forward clutch piston is necessary.

Use a magnet to verify the forward clutch piston being installed is the new steel piston. The magnet will adhere to the steel piston and not to the
aluminum piston.
