It should come with a new clutch. Check around at auto parts stores or transmission shops and ask 'em where you can find an clutch alignment tool.

Yep, I've done this soo many times. Make sure you use a pretty big flathead though.

I normaly just put a big breaker bar on the pully side and let the ground hold the force when taking em off. Can even do it by yourself. Pretty simple

I do that when the engine's on the ground, but not when on a stand. I guess you could put a big pipe on it still

Just have someone else hold the crank with a breaker bar and 19mm while you take the flywheel of...Or put the socket on the crank and rest the bar or ratchet so it hits the floor or something so it wont spin...no need to spend $60

that tool is for the crank pulley not the flywheel, you can remove the flywheel with a ratchet, impact gun, it is seated with a pin, only goes on one way...no slipping...
