it seems impossible. i just need enough of you guys to tell me that it cant be done.

the clutch fork slipped off the throwout bearing during a drive. i know the spring may be off sync. anyway, get back to me in a bit.

aint gonna happen. Gotta pull the sucker. You might be able to get lucky and pull the rubber boot off the fork and wiggle it into place with some help from some other long pieces to push the bearing back into a place you can reach it with the fork. Good luck.
