Clutch replacement, a do-it-yourself project?

I need a new clutch, and I've just about decided to do the job myself. I've done a lot of automotive work over the years (including clutches)... just don't enjoy it as much as I used to. However, I really need to save some $$$ right now. I'm wondering if there are any gotcha's I need to be aware of, or any tips or experiences you all might have. In terms of disassembly, it looks like the toughest part is accessing the top bell housing bolts. Any other challenges I should be aware of? Thanks!

What year are you dealing with? It isn't all that much different than any other truck for the most part... it depends which trans you have and such as to specifics...
