Ensure correct clutch fork positioning and reliable clutch operation with this Genuine Nissan Clutch Fork Retainer Spring, designed specifically for Nissan Patrol GQ Y60 models fitted with TB42 and TD42 engines. This OEM spring is located between the clutch fork and pivot ball, helping secure the clutch fork in place and maintain correct alignment within the bellhousing during operation.

Over time, clutch fork retainer springs can weaken, stretch, corrode, or break due to heat exposure, clutch cycling, and contamination from dust or moisture inside the bellhousing. When the spring fails, the clutch fork may lose correct tension or positioning, leading to inconsistent clutch feel, improper release bearing alignment, or increased wear on clutch components.

Manufactured to genuine Nissan specifications, this direct-fit replacement restores factory clutch fork retention and ensures smooth, reliable clutch operation.
