Hi John, I've just had an episode with the pilot bearing in the end of the crankshaft. I changed the clutch about 60,000 ago now the pilot bearing is seizing to the input shaft so you cannot shift. I would certainly change this $12 bearing next time I removed the transaxle.

Hi all,

I'll be replacing the clutch in my '84 GL shortly. Anything else I should do while I'm there, besides disc,, pressure plate and throw out bearing? Engine seal maybe?

Thanks
