Power from the transmission is transferred to the transfer case (3) and on to front and rear
axles (4) through a series of drive shafts and universal joints (5).
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
HEMTT series vehicles use an Allison HD4000 series transmission model 4500SP.
This hydrokinetic type transmission has an integral-locking torque converter, lock-up clutch,
constant mesh planetary gearing, the GEN IV, a speedometer, and control valve module
assembly.
The primary components of the GEN IV system are the Transmission Control Module
(TCM), transmission range selector in the vehicle cab, a control valve module beneath the
transmission gearing section which contains solenoid valves for clutch control, an engine
speed sensor, a turbine speed sensor, and an output speed sensor that relays the
transmission output speed to the TCM for shifting and control functions.
