Hey guys, I am getting ready to pull my automatic out once and for all and install the R150F behind my 3VZE. I had the clutch release bearing on there to what I thought was right, the fork was moving nicely and I was looking at the next steps in this awesome swap thread and seen that I apparently have the clip backwards.

is this installed correctly now?


Now when I have the clip installed like this it feels like that clip wants to pop off, before I actually had the opening to the clip facing inwards of the fork if that makes sense and it was snug and no problems at all. The way the FSM wants you to install is with the opening to the clip facing away from the opening to the fork how I have it in the picture and like I said it just doesnt feel right to me, it has a full range of movement but feels like the clip wants to pop off, I just want want any failures in the future... can anyone shed any light

 

in this thread someone talks about kind if the same thing and in post 4 is a picture but I dont even see the clip?

it looks right, is it holding the bearing on? glad u are doing the swap... also when u go to put in the peddle assy. helps if u drop the steering wheel...

 

Its holding the bearing yeah, im just worried about the clip pooping off, I mean I guess it dont matter much anyway one installed and has preasure against it but it seems to throw good just for some reason it feels like it wants to pop off the bottom. Pedal assembly, lines and master cylinder have been on for weeks, I didnt drop the column l, I unbolted the one long pivot bolt for the brake pedal and installed the bracket and clutch pedal then bolted the brake pedal back up, no need to do more work then needed

 

ah ok when i did it i ended up replacing the whole assy down there.. didnt know about just doing it that way...

 

When I changed my clutch a few years ago I thought the same thing about the clips..they were really loose. Put it all together and it worked beautimously and never came apart on me. When I rebuilt the motor a few months back the clips were still on there.
