Squeaky throw out bearing
1995 mustang 5.0 5spd changed clutch, throwout bearing, and pressure plate about 1,000 miles ago. The car was making an annoying squeaking sound and I got under the car and it turned out to be the hub that holds the bearing. Any idea how to adjust it?

Do you mean the bearing retainer sleeve that the bearing slides on, or the clutch fork the accuates the bearing ?
Is this a squeak that only happens when the car is running, or does it do it with the car parked, engine off ?

If your getting a squeaking sound from your throwout bearing after installing a new one, then I suggest you take a bit more slack out of the cable by adjusting it. You need to have a little preload on the bearing against the clutch fingers.
