    That doesn't sound too good - what was the problem?

    This is an old thread, but also the closest I can find to a changing the clutch guide.

    Does one exist?

    Forgive the sig I'm a guest

    This is probably as close as you will get. IIRC It has all the info you require for getting to the clutch, minus the actual clutch work such as removing the clutch cover, locking the flywheel and undoing the flywheel bolts.

    We also know that you should be removing the lay-shaft from the passengers side of the gearbox to make removal / install of the transfer case a breeze (you will require a slide hammer though)

    I am surprised there isn't a guide on OzVR4...

    If you have any specific questions which you don't feel this guide addresses, just ask.
