I'm gonna feel like a dummy now if this is right. The picture shows the release fork on the outside of the throw out bearing, not in the middle of it. Is this the correct installation? If so it makes complete sense now. I never had any pictures of inside the tranny and didn't look into the housing before I removed the fork so I figured it was to be installed onto the bearing not to the side of it.
you should be able to remove the slave and then look through the hole where the fork enters the housing and see where it meets the release bearing on the outer lip.
i had an issue with a super stiff clutch pedal, and somehow noticed that the ends of the fork were rusty. a little grease and BAM, back to feeling new

The fork fits sort of in between the bearing ... not against it.

So then I did have it installed correctly, I was pretty sure the fork pulled the TO bearing away from the clutch. I greased up EVERYTHING really well so I'm gonna put it back together and see how it goes.
