#1) Pull the flywheel, install a flywheel O ring, Flywheel felt seal, Pilot bearing and Front main seal. ($12.00) It is sometimes hard to get the pilot bearing out ........... give it a try, if you need help post again. #2) Install a new clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing. ($135.00) Lube the throw out shaft bushings / bearings. #3) In the bell housing, install a new starter pilot bushing if it didn't come with a new one.( $1.00) #4) Decide what grease you're going to run, it takes right at 1 gallon. ($18.00 - $40.00) #5) Inspect and repack your CVs while you're half off with them. Grease $8.00 or less. That's it, just throw another $160.00 at the job and you should be done for about 75K.
