I have actually never done a clutch install but am a tech (just new).
I am going to change the clutch on my S2k but wanted to know 2 things before I get started:

1) I am supposed to release the clutch fork, does that mean remove it from its position so it is losse and floppy or do they mean press it like the slave cylinder would so that the clutch is in a released position?

2) I have heard that on some rwd cars it can be tough to seperate the tranny from engine when the time comes. What are your experiences with the s2k and do you have any tips?

 

1) Pull it out so that its loose and floppy.

2) You're going to have to drop the subframe the recommended 3-4" from the chassis so you can get to the upper tranny bolts, and also give clearance for the bellhousing when you separate and slide the tranny off.

 

Thanks for the response

I am actually already done with the clutch and it feels great.

Thank god for friends willing to stay up all night and help out. (Over torqued the PP first go around)

 

got a tranny jack? the human tranny jack method didn't work out too well for me...lol
