Default Clutch And Flywheel Install

Would putting in an ACT clutch and Clutchmasters flywheel be too big of a task for a novice with a Haynes manual and a free lift to manage? If it is a very complex task, what is a good price on the install?

Thanks,
Ben

Not complex in any way, just very laborious. Just getting the tranny off is a job. Getting it back on is pretty intimidating too.

Aside from removing/lifting the tranny, the most randomly difficult parts are removing the axles and popping the front LCA balljoint.

Once you get the tranny off, it's pretty simple. Just make sure you have the right tools, because there are times when you need a very specific tool to accomodate teh situation.

First time, I wasted an hour trying to take the lower ball joint off and couldn't so I removed the upper ball joint. Labor intensive but not hard.
