How to remove, inspect, and install the release lever and bearing on Toyota 4Runner?

To eliminate the release cylinder, first of all, you need to delete the transmission. Thirdly, pull the release lever towards you and wrap your finger around the on the ball stud as the release lever retainer can be removed easily by pulling towards you. Pay attention to the fact that the release lever fingers are locked by the wire retainer of the bearing, then, unlock the bearing from the lever and move it off the input shaft. The release lever must be set back; furthermore, the state of boot should be check on cracks or tears; in case of worn or damaged, it should be replaced. In the lever, look at wire retainer; should it be non-existent or deformed, pull it out and dispose of it. To check, grasp the outer section of the bearing and turn the inner part with a finger applying force; if they rotate with a dragging sound or stiff feel, replace them. Do not submerge the bearing in a solvent, instead, smoothly and carefully scrub the bearing with a cloth as it would determine the condition of the bearing by visible signs of damage and wear. Again, during assembly, apply a small amount of clay like lubrication at the marked location of the clutch release lever should be lubricated while if the old retainer was removed it should be replaced with a new one. Apply high temperature grease to the groove round the release bearing and to the bearing retainer. Screw the release bearing to the release lever in the manner that it will fit well by use of the retainer clip. Using high-temperature grease put the clutch release lever ball stud through the boot, sliding the release bearing over input shaft splines, and place the lever onto the ball stud, where it should click to accommodate. Check whether the release lever comes to a free movement and check whether the release bearing moves easily on the splines of the input shaft. Dip a rag in high-temperate grease and rub it on the face of the release bearing, which comes in contact with the fingers of the pressure plate diaphragm. Last but not the least, close the procedure by performing the following removal procedure in the reverse sequence: Tighten all the bolts that connects transmission to the engine.
