Alright guys im going to be doing my first clutch install. I know this has been posted many times and i posted something like this before, but the search doesn't load for me? Any tips or things I should know? I have a pilot bearing, rear seal has been done about 2 months ago by a mechanic, my flywheel will be resurfaced, and I have a steel bearing retainer. Can i reuse the flywheel bolts? Which loctite to use (green/red/blue)?


Also if anyone can do a search for me and copy jrichker's (sorry if i spelled it wrong but you guys know who im talking about or unless he sees this first) write up on a clutch install. Thanks - Dave

Check out the "how to" sticky in the 94-95 tech section. 5spd GT has a very good write-up in there on doing a clutch, and he put a parts list in the beginning of his post, for the commonly replaced parts when doing a clutch swap.

Here is Joe's post about it, and here is David's post. Both are outstanding. Good luck.
