    Question Clutch Change

    Having the clutch changed this weekend , my mate the mechanic has not changed one on a VR4 before but loads on others. He was wondering if there were any pointers to make it any easier before he gets stuck in ?

    Yep......

    Biggest help is if you remove the ourput shaft from the n/s of the gearbox with a slide hammer. Helps the transfer box to come off nice and easy. Also, there is a knack of getting the release bearing to separate from the pressure plate. Other than that its not too bad
