Anybody done this, do you need to remove passenger drive shaft. |

You have to remove the passenger side drive shaft from the box, you may get away with leaving hanging out of the wheel bearing if you can get enough room. I normally take the whole left hand knuckle off and be done with it because 9 times out of 10 the shaft will be stuck fast in the hub

Thanks Robbie Do you mean the bolts holding it to the strut. Is it just a case of pulling the shaft off the diff, or tapping it off with a hammer. what about lining the plate up, is it straightforward enough. |

Yeah, remove the track rod end, remove the 2 17mm bolts where the knuckle is bolted to the shocker and the 2 17mm where the knuckle is bolted to the lower arm. The drive shaft can be "popped" out of the diff with a pry bar. Either align the clutch disc by eye or use an aligning tool  Not a job I'd relish doing on axle stands

thanx Robbie, clutch should be nearly gone now after 189k, but not slipping yet. |

You make it sound simple Robbie, is it just a case of seperating the engine and gearbox in situ enough to remove the clutch from the engine? Found a clutch being sold new for 78.91 + VAT. |

You have to seperate the engine and gearbox and put the gear box on the floor It is simple...... with the right tools/experience
