I guess my question is how tight should it be? it rides on the outside and it seems the ball should be all the way into the cut and fork, so it feels like i will have to force it onto this to get it to seat, is it ok to tap it with the rubber hammer to get it seated on the ball?

my transmission is back together and once this TO bearing and fork are installed its ready to go back into the car!!!!

another question here- how loose should the shift fork be? i fee like the cup is not slipping over the ball all the way and with the u bracket behind the fork tightened it’s not hanging loose i have push or pull not just floating loose like before.

are wear marks on the fingers of the pressure plate normal? not grooved but wondering if this is normal too- btw before this was pulled , other than the squeaking bearing there was not any slippage of clutch, so i don’t plan on pulling pressure plate or disc and the flywheel was brand new less than 10k miles ago as well.
