Torque Converter And Shaft

The torque converter consists of a impeller (pump), turbine and stator assembly in a single unit. The pump is connected to the engine crankshaft and turns as the engine turns. This drawing force is transmitted to the turbine through the oil which is recycled by the stator.

The transmission has two parallel shafts; the input shaft and the output shaft. Both shafts are in line with the engine crankshaft. The input shaft includes the overdrive clutch, reverse clutch, underdrive clutch, one way clutch, 2ND brake, low & reverse brake, overdrive planetary carrier, output planetary carrier and transfer drive gear. The output shaft includes the transfer driven gear.
