ordering clutch but got ???

1_nice_03_gt · February 5th, 2012, 06:33 PM

ok so im ordering an exedy clutch, ford racing tob, and rear main seal (why not right) and was wondering if i should also order pilot bearing aswell?
and should i order an aluminum flywheel? kinda doubting it would help me out since im under 270rwhp, but im condering doin either the on3 turbo or a s/c down the road

oh and my car has just under 60k on it,

also how much are tob bearings AM has em for 59.99 anywhere cheaper?

Get the PB as well. Why not do the clutch yourself? It's pretty easy. Had mine done in four hours. (hour a day for four days hahah due to work)

Easy is a realitive term. The last time I changed a clutch was on a gravel driveway with snow on the ground. I had to drop the transmission down on my chest to get it out. Putting it back is was rolling the transmission back up on my chest and lifting it up into place. I didn't have an alignment tools and did this about a million times until I gave up and went and borrowed the alignment tool. It went in the first time. If you have the facilities, the tools and the time then yes it is easy. Without those things it is not.

P.S. I also changed a motor and transmission using a swing set as a hoist once. But that is a different story.
