I already took the 4 bolts from the tranny but inside the bellhouseing there is a fork like rod that sticks out.Do I need to take that off?so far I'm stuck. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 769 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 769 | No, the fork can stay in position. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,596 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,596 | Is the throw-out bearing stuck to the shaft? It should slide straight out (heavy) if it has been sitting along time the splines on the clutch disc and the pilot bearing are the only other things that would be holding it. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 42 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 42 | Its been sitting for a year or so.Do I need to take off the throwout bearing?

Its heavy, be ready to catch it. I cut the heads off of a couple of long 1/2" bolts and threaded them into the two top holes to use as guides. This helps the trans come straight back a couple of inches so you can get it loose without it falling on the floor. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 42 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 42 | YES... I got it out.Once I took the fork shape thing that was sticking out the left side of the bell it came right out.(I dont know what its called). thanks for the help Stovebolters.airchevy | | | | | Joined: Nov 2000 Posts: 1,966 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2000 Posts: 1,966 | It's actually called the "clutch fork". Do you have a shop manual? They are really handy, show up on eBay from time to time and reprints are available from most classic parts vendors. Good luck!
