how to replace a clutch?

[gingerbredman00]

Ok I'm probably breaking a rule here by posting this in the newbie forum, But I cant find my answer!WTF
I have already ordered my clutch, it will be here any day!
But I need to know how to replace my clutch, and I need pictures!
also I will need to know what tools I will need.
I have a 90 tsi fwd, here is my clutch..

1989-1999 Eagle Talon 2.0L Turbo Stage 3 Clutch Kit

Yes I did search, but all I got was people asking questions about if their clutch was bad and what kind to get, and people crying about which one is better.

Have you ever done a clutch before or even dropped your transmission out from the car?

If you don't have someone with experience to help you then I really wouldn't attempt to do it yourself.

getting those flywheel bolts to break loose are gonna be tough on your own, need a flywheel tooth holder or someone on the other side with a socket and rachet to hold the crank from spinning.

Its not that hard, I found that if your doing it alone to take the dr half shaft out so you dont have to align it and get the trans on at the same time. To get the flywheel bolts loose just get a piece of metal with two holes on each end and bolt one to the engine and the other to the pressure plate holes to keep it from moving.

I'v never done a clutch but I'v dropped a few transmissions before, and they where auto's.
Also there will be a more experienced person there helping.
I just needed something to look at incase we get confused on anything.

I removed those on my own with a krowbar, and the socket, now i spent 40 bucks got me an impact gun, life is so much easier. I did mine years ago, i bought the book, got some tools, and started wrenching, thats how i learned. It seems everything just about 99 percent of everything i did to my dsm, i learned on my own.
