First of all I'm posting in 2g cause no one in 420a will repsond. Okay so I need to replace my clutch and flywheel in my 1999 eclipse GS 420a. Both the clutch and flywheel are aftermarket, Southbend stage 2 endurance clutch kit. I installed it a while ago but the clutch pressure plate I think warped on me cause it shudders and jerks really bad, untill today when it starting sqealling and virbrating really bad. So I think I'll just buy the same clutch which comes with a new flywheel and TOB.
My question is though what is the best way to install a clutch? I know how to actually install the clutch and flywheel itself but I want to know whether it is easier to pull the entire motor and tranny together out, or just drop the tranny. I feel as though I should just pull the entire engine with tranny out cause I will have more room to install the new flywheel. But I want to hear other people's thoughts on this. Some advice would also be nice for anyone who has installed an aftermarket clutch on their 420a.
Thanks
Brad
