It pivots on a ball, pushes the throwout bearing, and does that every single time you shift. On a B-series that's now twenty-five to thirty years old, it's done that job hundreds of thousands of times, and the wear shows up as a pedal that doesn't feel right and a clutch that doesn't fully release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat A Worn Fork Feels Like\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWorth knowing, because fork wear gets blamed on the clutch itself constantly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWear happens at the contact points, where the fork meets the pivot ball and where it meets the throwout bearing. As those surfaces wear, part of your pedal travel goes into taking up slack rather than moving the bearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat you feel is a \u003cstrong\u003eclutch that doesn't fully disengage\u003c\/strong\u003e, which shows up as grinding into first from a stop or difficulty finding gears at idle. Sometimes there's a \u003cstrong\u003enotchy or inconsistent pedal\u003c\/strong\u003e as the fork moves unevenly across worn surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePeople chase that with a new clutch, get a small improvement, and still have the problem. That's because the clutch was fine. The thing pushing it wasn't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDo It With The Clutch\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe practical advice worth the most on this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe release fork is only accessible with the transmission out, which is nearly all the labor on a clutch job. If you're already in there, replacing the fork costs you a few minutes and no additional access.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSkip it and you're putting a worn fork against a brand new clutch, which means the new clutch never feels as good as it should and you're back under the car sooner than you wanted. On a job that takes a weekend, that's a poor trade for a cheap part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eGrab The Bolt And Spring Too\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBoth are small parts that finish the job properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.hybrid-racing.com\/products\/honda-clutch-release-fork-bolt-22825-p0s-000?_pos=1\u0026amp;_sid=f8610c4b0\u0026amp;_ss=r\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003erelease fork bolt (22825-P0S-000)\u003c\/a\u003e is the pivot the fork works against. It wears alongside the fork, and putting a fresh fork on a worn pivot ball means you've only fixed half the problem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe release fork spring (22835-P80-000) is what keeps the fork properly seated against the bearing. When it weakens, the fork can rattle and doesn't return consistently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBoth cost almost nothing next to the labor of reaching them, and both wear on the same schedule as the fork itself. There's no sensible reason to reuse either.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eUse The Genuine Part\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fork geometry determines your pedal travel and how much the bearing moves for a given input. A part that's close but not exact changes that relationship, which means a clutch that engages somewhere different than it should.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the exact part Honda spec'd, and on a component buried behind a transmission it's worth getting right the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e1994-2001 Acura Integra GS, GS-R, LS, RS, and Type R\u003cbr\u003e1999-2000 Honda Civic Si\u003cbr\u003e1998-2001 Honda CR-V\u003cbr\u003e1994-1997 Honda Del Sol VTEC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCovers B16A2, B16A3, B18B1, B18C1, B18C5, B20B, and B20Z transmissions.
