I'm in the process of collecting parts for the clutch job on my 2k2.

Does the fork that operate the clutch (after the slave cylinder) go bad ? or it's just a piece of metal and probably only its spring that gets tired ?

I'm gonna for sure have the dust cover of this mechanism ...

Thanks

 

I've never had to replace a clutch fork/spring. That being said, if you're T/O bearing fails it can potentially cause some wear. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Even my dust cover was in great shape! I cleaned it off, and it looked brand new after 120k.
