R154 Clutch Fork installation question

[sddriver]

My slave cylinder went bad while I was driving, so I decided to replace it and the clutch master cylinder. No problem right? Well, as I was bleeding out the slave, I noticed the clutch pedal would never get any stiffer. I took the inspection plate off the transmission and the clutch fork has come off its assembly.

I'm not too familiar with the R154 since this is my first Toyota ever, but does the transmission have to come out in order for me to get the clutch fork back on, or is it possible to install it while the transmission is still bolted up to the engine?

I did try to put the fork back in to match up with the slave, but it keeps falling back out. I took a small flashlight to peek inside and I don't see any kind of way for the fork to hold in place. Is there a bracket or something to bolt down or hold the fork? Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Its installed with the tranny bolted on. Its not hard you dont need to remove anything other then you inspection plate. Its just a little tricky slidding it onto the housing. Trail and error is the only to figure it out.

It just snaps in.

In the pic, the clutch fork is 31204, the hinge for it is 31236B, and the spring that snaps it in is 31234A.

Thanks for the information and the pictures you all, definitely helped a lot. I got the fork back in, but it looks like my master cylinder I received is no good as its not providing enough hydraulic pressure to move the fork at all. I've done the bench bleeding and did about 30 cycles of bleeding out the fluid, but I'm barely getting enough pressure to release the clutch. Looks like I'll go ahead and pay for the factory Toyota part on the master cylinder. Hopefully I can get this car running before the JCCS car show in Long Beach!

Until last year, my car had its original clutch master cylinder. I replaced it with another OEM Asin clutch master. Just goes to show the durability of OEM parts. Always go OEM on crucial hydraulic parts like Clutch cylinders, etc.
