Replacing pilot bearing.
I removed my tranny and noticed that the bearing inside the flywheel at the rear of the crank is in pieces. How is this thing replaced? Do I have to remove the flywheel to replace it?

No you dont need to remove your flywheel,although if you are changing your clutch because of wear,I would suggest having it resurfaced,but to remove your pilot bearing,pack the hole with grease,then use a rod or punch that just barely fits in the center of the bearing,put a rag around the punch and smack it,the force of the grease behind the bearing will pop it out.
