The assembly looks and functions much like a synchronizer.
It consists of a stop ring, friction cone, shim, needle bearing
and bearing race.
If a shift to reverse is attempted before the clutch completely
spins down (stops turning) the brake will stop the input shaft
before the idler gear engages any other gear. The friction cone
has lugs that fit into the case and holds the cone stationary.
The 5-R synchronizer sleeve engages with the stop ring.
Shift System
tu2ZC05AA
The shift system is the link between the driver and the transaxle.
The shifter assembly selects different gears by moving the
shift forks. The shift system consists of the shift knob, lever,
selector cable, crossover cable and transaxle shift levers.
Two transaxle shift shafts operate the shift selector assembly
inside the transaxle. A selector shaft and a crossover shaft
move the shift assembly during shifts. The selector shaft con-
trols shifts into first and second, third and fourth, fifth and
reverse. The arrows indicate selector shaft movement.
The crossover shaft is used to move the shift assembly from
one plane to another. The crossover shaft moves the shift
assembly from side to side allowing for shifts between second
and third, fourth and fifth. A bias spring is located around the
crossover shaft. The bias spring returns the assembly to the
3-4 neutral position when the transaxle is in neutral and the
shift lever is released.
