Throw out bearing carrier question.

Throw out bearing carrier question.

Hi there,

I have my installed an aftermarket clutch for my rb25det running a rb20det box.

upon installing the box (no fluid or lines have been installed yet due saving time) i have noticed (well I had a feeling it would happen) that my clutch fork is angled so much that it is pushing the slave cylinder rod almost all the way back into the cylinder, and has like 1mm (if that of play remaining in the cylinder).

Is it safe to assume that my bearing carrier is too long? or do i have to install the clutch lines, bleed them and see where the fork sits from there?. 

I can get a picture up if I am not making any sense along with amazing (not) paintshop work with red lines everywhere.

thanks in advance.

Which clutch? RB20 or RB25DET?

Heavy duty rb20det clutch.

Figured while I'm here i'd ask another question,

For a push type clutch does "clutch fork free play" mean the amount of movement the fork has when pushed into the slave cylinder from its neutral position?

First time playing around with this clutch business so don't mind the scrub level of knowledge, trying to learn :-).

 

cheers.
