Zusammenfassung: | A replacement overdrive piston retainer for an automatic transmission that rotationally engages and interconnects the reverse drum within the transmission housing to the overdrive clutch assembly, which is mounted on the exterior of the housing is disclosed. An integral hub diameter formed on the present piston retainer provides a plurality of lubrication sites positioned at predetermined angular locations to deliver automatic transmission fluid to the interface of the hub diameter and the reverse drum in timed relation to the rotation of the reverse drum in an amount sufficient to maintain clearance and to minimize premature wear and galling at the interface of the components. In addition, lubrication reservoirs have been integrally formed within the hub diameter in fluid communication with the lubrication sites to improve the flow of automatic transmission fluid through the piston retainer to the mating interface of the hub diameter and the reverse drum. |
