How to remove, inspect, and install Clutch Fork and Release Bearing on 2002 through 2008 Toyota Solara?

To remove the component, first disconnect the negative cable from the battery, then remove the transaxle. Next, reach behind the Clutch Fork to disengage it from the ballstud by pulling on the retention spring, followed by removing the fork and bearing. For inspection, hold the bearing by the outer race and rotate the inner race while applying pressure; it should turn smoothly, and if it doesn't or is noisy, replace it. Wipe the bearing with a clean rag and check for damage, wear, and cracks, avoiding immersion in solvent as it is sealed for life. Also, inspect the Clutch Fork for any cracks or bends. For installation, fill the inner groove of the release bearing with high-temperature grease and apply a light coat to the transaxle input shaft splines and the sleeve of the front bearing retainer. Lubricate the Clutch Fork ball socket, fork ends, and release cylinder pushrod socket with high-temperature grease. Attach the release bearing to the Clutch Fork, then slide it onto the transaxle input shaft front bearing retainer while passing the end of the Clutch Fork through the opening in the clutch housing, ensuring the Clutch Fork is firmly seated on the ball-stud. Apply a light coat of high-temperature grease to the face of the release bearing where it contacts the pressure plate diaphragm fingers, and complete the installation by reversing the removal procedure.
