Supra JZA80 How to Grease Up the Clutch Release Fork

When you operate the clutch slowly, you will hear a strange noise from the bottom of the car body, so grease it up to the release fork.

First, jack up the car so that you can access the area around the clutch release cylinder at the bottom of the passenger seat side. Next, remove the clutch housing cover attached to the side of the clutch part of the mission and open the service hole of the clutch housing. Two red circle bolts.

Remove the clutch release cylinder fixed to the side of the mission to free the clutch release cylinder. Two bolts indicated by red circles.

Slide the clutch release cylinder in the direction of the arrow to release the tension on the clutch release fork. Care must be taken not to overload the pipe connected to the release cylinder.

Pull out the clutch release fork toward you to remove it. Since the release fork is fixed with a hook-like part and a spring, it can be pulled out from the service hole by pulling it toward you when the release cylinder is not under tension.

Apply clutch release hub grease (genuine Toyota) to the red circle part of the removed clutch release fork. After that, it will be assembled in the reverse procedure. It is convenient to have lighting when returning the release fork because the inside of the housing is dark. Installing the release cylinder is quite difficult because the bolt holes are aligned while the cylinder is compressed.

Since it is a self-style, please refer to it at your own risk. The cause of the abnormal noise of the clutch is not limited to the release fork, but it may be between the clutch pedal and the clutch master cylinder or the clutch body, so this work does not necessarily eliminate the abnormal noise.
