So today me and a friend of mine are starting to tackle the job of the clutch install. Took off the pypes, disconnected the starter and batt, took the shaft out, got the black bar out from under the tranny, bolts off the tranny, shifter is out, and got the flywheel and clutch out. Super easy job, took me and my friend hour and 30min yes no joke lol. Just need some extensions but basic hand tools and a impact. I ordered the clutch on fri morning so hopefully it's here by thurs. tomorw I will be getting the flywheel resurfaced

How did you like getting the starter out lol

 

[Venomouz831]

Lol it was simple like 5 min. Had to squeeze in there but got it out

 

[02StangGT]

Are you gonna put the top bolt back in?

 

[Venomouz831]

Idk maybe if its easy to put back on. It was actually easy to take off because the top bolt wasn't screwed all the way in

 

[02StangGT]

Lol lucky it sucks taking it all the way on. I wouldn't know it its hard or not I didn't put it back lol

 

[Venomouz831]

Haha lol well with the bottom bolt it should just be fine

 

[02StangGT]

Ya I changed my clutch about 2 months ago and my car has been running fine on the 2 bolts I don't see a problem with leaving it out

 

[Venomouz831]

Nice what clutch did you go with?

 

[02StangGT]

Just one from autozone. Just a quick grab and one to play with the other clutch was still good but the pilot and throw out bearings were shot

 

[Venomouz831]

Oh ok

[Venomouz831]

Those were oem clutches that i burnt through haha plus i rode it hard all day every day. It never got a break.

So we put the new excedy clutch in and so far so good just puttin the tranny on and getting it aligned is a pain in the ass.
