Don't forget about flywheel machining if required.

Clutch is 3 months old! Got the jeep berried up over the bottom of the doors and the muddy water just killed the beering! And shop time is 3.1 hrs

ok .. if you knew the time why did you ask? just wnat to make sure you didn't get screwed?....

I think there is no way around and you have to remove the tranny and the t-case to get to the rls bearing... I don't know any other way.. but I'm not a mechanic.


Mud is evil ..you see if you like mud and do lots of it... This sport will start being expensive. The Mud around Mclean is the worst. It's so fine that it gets everywhere.


Mud is evil... and boring
