OS Giken install question

I have a part (lipped sleeve) that I'm not sure is used in the OS Giken install.
I have already changed out the tranny front cover, replaced fork with push-type adapter, and replaced the slave cylinder adapter. Not sure where this part would fit.

I've included a picture of it. It's hard plastic.

There doesn't seem to be much information on OS Giken conversion installations.
I don't even know the torque spec on the clutch cover bolts.

I don't remember installing any hard plastic piece.

I don't remember the torque specs on the clutch cover bolts, but I hand tightened all of the bolts and gave them a good 1/8 to 1/4 turn of the wrench....clutch has held up for a long time.

ahh ****. Yeah I did. I normally read PM's before I go to work and then answer them at work. Just been too busy at work.

Don't get the Brix. You can't slide them too far forward or too far back. If your between 5'2 and 5'6 ...that's about all the forward/back movement the seat will go before it hits interior pieces of the car and won't budge.

Haha...I promise this will be the last non-related post in this thread

that plastic piece is for your pull to push converison fork/t.o. bearing. Look at it and you will a slop in the bearing holder.

O c
*o----o^

Looking at the converter frontal. O is the t.o. bearing, * is the plastic piece fits around the left end of the link shaft , o----o is the link shaft. C is the where the slave cylinder would go.

I know the picture is kind of bad bu you have to imagine. send me a picture of your converter and i will edit with an arrow where is goes.

Thanks, LetsGO7.

It fits within the linkage arm with the lip toward the slave cylinder tip, right?
