Don't know about Downey; I can get CF clutches locally.

Ain't too bad. Gotta rent the following:
Tranny jack and rachet strap; it WILL try to roll on you.
Air if you don't have it, you'll wish you did <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />
2' x 1/2" dr bull bar
17mm toggle socket for the top 2 bolts (double check yer size)
Torque wrench.

Stuff for oil change; easier to reach the inner starter bolt with the filter outta the way.

Disconnect battery <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />

Mark/drop driveline (to reconnect back in-phase)
Unbolt 4 bolts thru holes in crossmember (for the vibe plate)
Disconnect bellhousing, starter bolts, slave cylinder, and exhaust clamp
May need to remove shifters; depends on how much room you need.

Pull aft, replace TO bearing; inspect the pilot bearing also. Your call on if you want to replace the clutch or not. If so, take the time to get the flywheel resurfaced, or you'll be back under there in 4 months. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />

Give yourself a day; book time is 5 hours. Put on the crockpot for dinner and get a pizza for your breaks. Good to have a helper who knows to leave the beer on ice until yer done.

Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.
