Question clutch pedal squeak,ACT hd clutch,help

Hey guys. 1500mi after ACT hd with prolite flywheel installed, my clutch pedal squeaking now when im pressing it all the way down. Pedal is adjusted a lil higher with about 3 threads left on the rod. Its rather loud and coming from under the car somewhere. Dont know if im doing any further damage while still driving. I did search and the closest answer i got was that i might have to lubricate release fork at the clutch slave cylinder. No idea how can i accomplish that, someone says you have to drop the tranny. I called mitsu and the mechanic said i have to have clutch pedal adjusted to the same level as brake pedal,i dont think it makes sence since most evo drivers will get locked out of gears,correct me if im wrong. Can anyone help?

i think they are saying to lubricate where the piston pushes out to the fork on the tranny.....you dont have to drop it to do that, wlel correct me if im wrong, but on teh tranny itself more towards the bumper if you were standing in front of the car with hood up if you follow the clutch line all the way where it connects to the piston on the trany, it pushes like a black lever which is the fork connected to the TOB, may have to lube that secion...

or what you can do is pop the hood, stand over the tranny and ahve someone depress the clutch pedal to see what you haer and hwere you hear it.

Mine sqeaked at the top of the travel. Adjusted it down a bit, and its fine now. Not sure if yours is coming from inside the cabin or not, though...

Where is the squeaking coming from? Put the car on jacks stands and get someone to get under the car and listen. If you continue to hold the clutch pedal to the floor does it continue to squeak or does it just make one quick little chirp? If its a continuous squealing, its the throwout bearing. If its just one quick chirp, you forgot to grease something (clutch fork, pivot ball, throwout bearing, input shaft, etc.)
