im looking for torque specs for a sohc EX tranny, im replacing the final drive, and i need to know the specs before i can start tearing stuff down. im doing it in auto tech class, and i have to have ALL the info before i can start. i already know how to tear it down, and that i have to press the gears off, but i need to know the torque specs for the final drive, and whatever else i need to know. any help will be appreciated. thanks

 

look in a chilton's manual or a hayes manual. everything you need to know

 

already looked, they dont have it

 

the only other thing i could think of is going to a honda dealership and seeing if they have a factory manual you can look at. i know down here, the honda dealership behind my house, they let you look at it. if not, sorry man, no more i can tell you.

 

any other help? im trying to finish this this week. im gonna try to go to the honda dealership today and see what they have.

 

pg 15-5, 74 ft-lb for the ring gear bolts, LH threads

 

what about casing to casing? my auto tech teacher is a effing psycho, and has to torque everything juuuuuuuuuuuuuuust right

 

spark plug tight............ I've never torqued them..........

but the good book sez 20 ft/lbs.

 

what book did you get this out of? you are my ******* savior.

 

Ive always just did them spark plug tight with a extra 1/4 to 1/2 turn. i also use removeable loctite on tranny bolts as well

 

is there a trick to getting the two casings apart? i have all the bolts out and its off about 3/4 inch, but it doesnt want to come apart any more than that. holler back

 

get a helms
they have all the tq spec listed

 

well, i dont think im gonna do this anymore, i think ive got myself into something i cant handle. im gonna have to get a honda repair manual so i can have the whole diagram of a tranny to take it apart, show where all the snap rings are, what gear i have to press off, and all that bullshit. well, if anyone wants a 4.55 for a d series, or has that diagram, holler at me. peace

 

There should be one snap-ring on the top of the case accessible through a plug directly above the countershaft. You will probably have to have someone either spread the ring, or lift the case off...i found it damn near impossible to do both. Once you get clear of that ring you should be able to pull the case apart....you also need to be sure the shift pin is pulled all the way out or the shift forks will bind. Also make sure you have taken out the detent ***** and screws from the side of the trans and the screw that holds the reverse idle gear as well.

Hopefully this helps, this is all that is neede for B-series trannies, but if my mind serves me...everything is pretty close to the same.

Warning, you will NEEEEEED a helms, or all-data printout of the internal transmission components if you plan to pull them apart.

 

ok, so i found a haynes with a tranny layout for the 88-91 civic d series, but i cant fin a the 1992+, im wondering if its the same, im not wanting to assume anything

 

Its basicly the same, I'll get you the info when I go home later I'm at school at the moment.

 

What are you looking to do with your trans? I've done more then I care to for rebuilds on that series.

 

im replacing the final drive in it. ive never done any internal tranny work before, other than flywheels, clutches and such. im trying to find some type of diagram to see the exact directioins to dissassemble, and assemble it.

 

I have the whole helms on how to do what your asking but I dont get done with class untill after 10pm my time so anther 2 hrs +.
