i have a 1993 chevy s-10 4.3L V6 4x4 143,000 miles. i just put in a new transmission but i don't know if i put the throw out bearing in right? the way i put it in is the big end into the bell-housing and the smaller part towards the fly-wheel and then placed the fork into the slot of the throw out bearing. is this done right? i don't think i did it right because it's squealing?
