Clutch Replacement?
Well its finally getting warmed up here and my truck needs a clutch. I already got a clutch from Kenny. I'm just wondering how hard of a job this is to do myself...I have a motorcycle jack for the tranny and plenty of tools.

I did mine in my driveway. I rented a trans jack because I pulled the transfer case and transmission out as one unit. It was heavy. Pretty straightforward job. Make sure you clean the dowel pins before you reassemble. Need to pull it again this year to get the trans overhauled. Third gear synchros are history.

I have done this as well, I have a shop with a cement floor much easier,the process is pretty straight forward, one tip get the truck as high as possible and still be safe, these tranys are huge and heavy.

Its not a bad job at all, just rent you a good quality trans jack rated for big stuff, pull the trans and t case all at once, make sure u get the truck high least the front end, dont put too much wheel bearing grease on the shafts, torque everything u can get to to specs, get ur flywheel resurfaced and make damn sure u got alot of extentions and universals.
