Acura 22820-PG2-A00 Clutch Release Fork

To remove the clutch release bearing, disconnect the clutch cable and unbolt the clutch release cylinder. Remove the transaxle and slide off the release bearing on Legend models, or remove the release bearing fork-to-release shaft bolt and slide the shaft out on lntegra models. Check the bearing for damage and replace if needed. Lubricate the bearing, forkball socket, fork ends, and pushrod socket with high-temperature grease. Attach the bearing to the fork on Legend models, slide it onto the transaxle input shaft, and position the assembly on the input shaft on lntegra models. Align the holes, install and tighten the bolt, and apply grease to the face of the bearing. The rest of the installation is the reverse of removal.

By ensuring the alignment tool extends through the splined hub and into the pocket in the crankshaft.
