Alright so i THINK i installed the throw out bearing right...

Is it supposed to snap in? I can move the bearing back and forth on the shaft with my hands...I didn't know if it was supposed to snap in, or if it's supposed to be able to move back and forth by touching it lightly.

edit: sr20det if that matters.

Throw out bearing goes onto the release sleeve, the sleeve is what the clutch fork moves back and forth on the shaft. If your throw out bearing is moving around on the sleeve then you did something wrong.

The Bearing is pressed onto the sleeve but I'm saying I can move the bearing up and down the shaft really easily.. Wasn't sure if the bearing is suppose to say in one spot or if it should be able to move up and down the shaft as easy as it is.

Is the bearing supposed to move up and down the shaft if you touch it with you hands or only if you move the fork?

Yes that is normal, you'll want to grease the splines on the shaft accordingly.

Alright just making sure, I saw a YouTube video and it looked like the only way he could move the throw out bearing was by moving the fork around.. Not by touching the bearing itself.

Just wanted to make sure, thanks again. You've replied to a few of my threads, I appreciate it dude.
