I am having the clutch chatter problems that the P5 is infamous for and I have replaced the front and side motor mounts with the SLS mounts, but will probably need to do the others soon. I also think its time to replace the clutch and flywheel (or at least have it resurfaced).

Has anyone here replaced a clutch on their own? I feel fairly confident that I'd be able to do the work as long as I wouldn't need any really specialized tools and I knew what parts I needed in advance.

Can anyone provide any guidance? I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,
Jon

Its not too bad. The last one I did on a MSP was a PAIN though. I kept running into stupid little problems and it took about 7 hours longer than I it usually takes me.

Factor in about a weekend for your first time with a buddy to lend a hand.
