Clutch fork/Pivot ball issue

Hi I recently purchased a clutch kit from Zspeed for my 2004 g35 coupe and I have a question when I installed the new clutch, throw-out bearing flywheel and bolted the transmission back up I forgot to attach the fork to the pivot ball, it is the solid clutch fork that has the shorter pivot ball, will this most likely pop into place when I start depressing the clutch or do you think I need to tear everything back apart? or is there a recommended way to do it while still together? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

You can snap it onto the ball from the outside of the transmission, just remove that rubber boot and use a flat screwdriver wedged against the housing to leverage the fork onto the pivot ball.

The rubber boot has an arrow pointing forward so pay attention to it's orientation when you remove it.

Awesome thanks for the reply. I was able to get the boot off and and get a look and it had snapped in to place so I'm good to go , thanks again.
