Please help with clutch fork install...

I've got everything up. All I have to do is put the slave on. But I must engage the fork first. how do I do this?

im perty sure you just pull it back towards you as though the clutch was engaged and then push it towards the center of the cutch on to the TO bearing
then put the slave on and be good to go

I've tried that over and over again with no result. Could there be something I forgot to put on before putting the tranny back up?

You have to put the fork on before the tranny is up to the bell housing.. you need alittle over an inch to manuver the fork on the Throw out Bearing. Also the fork slides down towards you.. not pulled towards you.

Re: Please help with clutch fork install...

There are two flat parts on the TO bearing. The arm will only fit over the bearing on those flat parts. Just look inside the little hole and rotate the bearing with a screwdriver or something until it is at an angle where you can push the arm onto it.

Once it is lined up just push it on...it will kind of pop on there. You should be able to jiggle it only a little bit once it's on there. Once its on, put the metal case for the slave one the bolts and then the slave.

If that's not the problem explain it a little better and I'll try to help.

Well, it doesn't really matter now. I hooked everything up, pushed on the clutch pedal, and the slave broke into three pieces. Guess I'll have to go to the dealership tomorrow.
