so far i have put in three throw out bearings and two transmissions and i cant get the bearing to quit squeaking.i have an adjustable cable but if i adjust it enough to get the bearing to be quiet, the clutch slips real bad..any ideas on what i can do to solve the problem? i am putting in another tranny this weekend so i guess now would be the time to do it..i also have a new clutch fork..any help would be appriciated

make sure you grease the clutch fork where the t/o bearing sits, grease the pivot point and grease the bearing retainer where the t/o bearing rides. as far as getting the t/o bearing to stop squealing, get one from autozone, i think they carry the timken bearings.

Buy a steel retainer bearing. The factory one is aluminum and the TOB wears a groove in it. This is what caused the chirping I had.
