Default New clutch and flywheel. Anything else while I've got tranny off??

Hi i just ordered a new clutch and flywheel and while doing the install is there anything else that you guys recommend that i change while i have the tranny off?? Should i get the ARP bolts for the flywheel?? Or are the stock ones ok. I think they make um for the flywheel or clutch or something. But my main question is, what else should i change while my tranny is off. And i dont mean new gears or lsd or anything. Things reasonable maybe for maitanance or recommended changes.

Pilot bearing [may be obvious since you're installing a new flywheel], Throw out bearing [as said already]. Stock flywheel bolts are fine when torqued to spec.

Like said....

you will need a throw-out bearing and a new pilot bearing, if your clutch doesn't come with one.

A new rear main oil seal for the engine would be a good idea.

Limited slip diff. Perfect time to add on while everything is out.

Flywheel (resurface if old, no need for you)
Clutch disk
Pressure plate
Throw-out bearing
Pilot bearing
Rear Main seal

Make sure to properly grease the needed areas using some high-temp Urea grease (pretty sure thats what Helms calls it). Might want to also consider using some Loc-Tite on the flywheel and pressure plate bolts.

IMO, that's about as thorough a clutch job as one can be.
